The more you play, the better you’ll get; it’s simple, but it’s also true. The way it’s worked for me is that I’ve hit a series of plateaux: I’ll improve radically in a day or two, and then I’ll be stuck at the same level for a month or two, and then I’ll improve radically again, and the cycle will repeat itself.

Keep playing, and you’ll continue to improve. Don’t neglect the basics: start every day’s session with some scales, and keep on pushing the envelope. If you’re playing open chords, try for barre chords; if you’re playing at one end of the neck, move in the other direction; if you’re playing chords, try single notes; if you’re playing single notes, try finger picking.

Just keep on playing, and keep on challenging yourself—the day will come when you sound good.
