+title: On the motivation of practising an instrument

+
+So it's been roughly half a year since I started playing guitar.
+I was actually pretty proud of myself that I practised (nearly) daily. 
+Only recently my motivation seems to have faded. This might have to
+do with the current situation of physical distancing, which means I can't
+take my lessons. So I guess it's because I don't have the drive of "oh, I
+need to learn this and that until the next lesson".
+
+I'd've actually expected to have more motivation coming from myself, being
+able to play the instrument properly and such. I still get frustrated with
+myself sometimes, on the other hand, it's only been half a year... So I guess
+I can't be expecting wonders?
+
+Lately I've been even "obsessing" whether I hold the guitar properly (dunno
+if I should call it "perfectionism"), like, is the neck high enough. The way
+I've been playing until now "kinda worked", so I guess I don't need to worry?
