I regret buying a guitar, I can't even do the simplest shit on it according to YouTube... I dunno if it's laziness or just being tired of sucking so much and not being able to play the music that I like... Maybe a mix of both?

For me, the practice wasn't enjoyable. I'm the type of person that cannot stick to things for their rewards if it's not enjoyable. That's not to say I can't stick to things, it's just the doing itself has to be enjoyable. I've been doing a martial art for over twenty years now but I just kept showing up because I enjoyed it.
