Hello fellow guitarists, today something is going to my head. Iv been playing for 1 and a half year, i know it's not much. But i most certainly used time on the guitar, i think 4 hours a day as iv mentioned before.

If you look at some of the great players in the world, when they started playing... How did they start? How did they practice? I really can't even imagine a player like Slash or any other top player in the beginning when they picked up the guitar. What did they do to hit that level of playing, i know experience has to do a lot with it.

Im just so afraid that my improvement as a player will stop sometime, ofcourse you have periods of downcurves on your playing. But i fear that it will stop even though that seems most unlikely?

And i just fear that my practice routines are not strict enough, but i don't find the inspiration to make them if they are not (how do i get to know if they are?). Espeacially on the technical part, using metronome if i for example want to get faster at a lick or something. And practicing triads and those kinda things. How do i find the inspiration to ''Want'' to do that?

Last thing: ''Really, how hard is it to get ''wicked'' at playing guitar'' Some people only use 1 hour of practice a day, and seems to get really good at the end. Will that mean that im gonna be some kind of a ''super player'' someday when i spend so much time on it every day. (If i practice the right way ofcourse, which i want you guys to tell me how to do)

Sorry if the Thread is lame, but im getting more emotionel about playing. I really want it to GO! somewhere.
