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?
