Same. I've been spending nearly all of the past week working on my guitar, and the last time I did that I came up with the most amazing abstract piece.

I just found a great combination of sad chords for my melancholic "breadgirl is disappointing" song.

I always feel bad when I dont play at least every other day.
Instead of working ideas every day you should get in the habit of doing at least 15 minutes of guitar exercises absolutely no playing around. Just string skipping, alternate picking, and warm-ups to metronomes.

I usually play for about an hour every day, but the intonation on my classical guitar is kinda off, so I lost motivation for two days.

I wish I was more proficient at classical guitar. Teach me your ways Alan!
I'm not proficient at all. I've forgotten everything that I knew how to play of classical except some Bach and Carcassi studies. Playing classical gets really boring :(

Well, more than I can probably say. I don't know any music studies or theory at all, I just tab songs and watch videos and do chromatic exercises all day long. Hardly professional.

I've forgotten all of my music theory knowledge too. I prefer to play aimlessly and stumble upon something that I like. Feels much more rewarding that way for some reason.
