Example: I forced myself to learn guitar because I wanted to. I became a mediocre player to say the least. I went from one style to the other so that I could be a "well rounded" guitarist. Then one day it hit me. I spent so much time trying to learn everything new and better, until I lost sight of what was enjoyable about playing to begin with.
Does that make sense?
Sure it does. I play as well (Martin D-28) and have certain types of music I don't attempt.....because I just enjoy listening to it.
I don't have the drive to play....that I have for hunting, though. I hope THAT makes sense.
