Hi MAB
I suppose boredom is part of it, when I think of it but was thinking it was more letting things get in the way. In a sense I wonder if there is also a laziness or fear of not fulfilling promise.
I used to work 12 hours a day 6 days a week for many years, usually first in last out. But if it came to sitting down playing the guitar for hours, something I really enjoy, I just couldn't. I wonder if it was laziness or fear that I would never improve or if I had plenty money in the bank I wonder if could sit as long as I wanted playing, recording and collaborating. Though I think it's in my make up. I was good at some sports, etc, but preferred sitting at home listening to great singers and musicians imagining I was them - but dreams don't make reality ;-)
You are right though. I created so much more music helping and adding guitar to other people's songs, for example, and had a brilliant time. So I'll push for this again.
