For me, I continually watch and listen to new music and guitarists - If i practice the same things over and over and over every day, I will slowly lose interest in playing. Often I find that when i learn something half decent but hit a wall, if i come back to it in 6 months, I can break through that wall easier. It’s all about fresh perspective, every day.
Even if all I do is watch some YT videos from guitar channels i follow, that can be enough inspiration on a busy day. How about you all? What keeps the inspiration flowing?
Nothing gets me more right in the head than opening a beer and rocking out. Sometimes I have to forego the beer but I still like pretending I’m playing a show. I’ll warm up with some covers but then go through the stuff I’ve written, I’ve never played these riffs or songs live but that’s okay, It’s really just for me. I really just play and write as a hobby.
