Some more good advice here, that works for me anyway.

I guess thats my point with this thread, just inspiring thoughts that
help the insecure (occasionally frustrated/bored) musician (such as myself). Nothing works all the time? Most of us have different moods, right? There`s no monopoly on good advice.
Music is very subjective when it comes to phrases like `play from the heart` etc. In a frustrated practice session it might be more helpful to say `focus on the chord notes during this solo...` or whatever. Or maybe to have a break?
Thats why i like guitarist interviews - there`s so many different ways of approaching music, & even though magazines are mostly full of rubbish, just occasionally you stumble across something that is really helpful to yourself.
