How or when do you know that your guitar playing is getting better, does it sound better to you the player, or do you just enjoy playing the guitar more, do you wake up in the morning and the first thought is " can't wait to play me guitar after me mug of coffee ", or people stay a little longer in to room when you start playing your guitar.

Derick, I think it's pretty simple.

Hey, that thing I couldn't do before? I can do that now!

Or, that thing I sucked at before? I don't quite, really, totally suck at it now!

That's how you know you're getting betterer.

TonyKgull,

Thought you were going to say something like that.
That unfortunately means I ain't getting any better, but the good news is I'm enjoying not getting any better.

Derick, If you're playing every day, you're getting better.

I never said we'd all notice that we're getting better.

And really, does it even matter? As long as we're enjoying what we can and are doing, that's the most important thing I think. Otherwise, what's the point of doing it?
