    I cant commit myself to learn to play guitar, even though i really want to...

    i know the basics and a few songs, i just cant play it for a long period of time in a given day...or week. it gets frustrating and im not getting any better! i must have ADD...maybe im just lazy.
    why cant i take a pill that makes me a guitar god?...or goddess, whatever

    I first picked up an electric two years ago. I first picked up an acoustic at age 6 but didn't get serious till I was 12.

    I need to send you a clip I recorded last night :)

    Basically, guitar is now a habit for me. I always have guitars around me... Even if you're watching tv, have a guitar on your lap to noodle on or play with. It helps.

    Thats good advice. I never played mine much until i put it on a stand where i always see it, then i always want to pick it up and play. Anyways, like anything keep it up and practice and you'll start to notice your playing better

    Yeah... you always have to have one around you. I have four guitars right now. I make sure there's always one with within sight.

    i have my electric guitar sitting out in my room on a stand, and i do pick it up and play around for a minute sometimes. but i usually end up doing something else like video games or drawing

    being in a band, there are times where i dont want to play guitar (usually laziness at the time), but i do anyways and i get into it fast. then, when i feel i have had enough practice in, i put 'er down for a while and play whenever the impulse comes after that. patience is a key issue too, you NEED to have patience.
