For instance if I don't like finger picking style I am much more inclined to go for that 80% mark on that lesson and focus more on strumming or whatever.

I am in the Accoustic section of advanced and found myself in a rut of bordom trying for weeks to get up to speed with finger picking. Just yesterday I picked up the electric and jumped into Rock section. So far enjoying the heck out of it. My study now (Finger picking, song study with strumming, Rock section and scales) Now I can't wait to play everyday again.

Thanks Gilbyesk ! One of the most challenging things about learning online is that you`re both teacher and student. It`s a fine line between keeping yourself honest and adhering to the lesson goals while also avoiding getting bogged down and discouraged.
