Hi Michael,

I am very much a student here. But since you asked:

Two things hit me in your post:

1) New job.

2) Hard to focus.

I would not mizimize a new job.

On the hard to focus it sounds like you are bored with what you are working on meaning it is not challenging enough for you. From experience - this can have 1 of 2 causes:

1) the person is delusional

2) the work load is insuffecient and they have lost interest.

I assume in your case it is the 2cnd.

I think for all of us, no matter how old we are or how much experience we have, it is important that we have a goal in mind. And our goals will not be the same. There is no right or wrong, this is entirely personal.

I have my goals and they keep me focussed and motivated. Have you thought about why you play guitar and what you want out of it? That should lead you to were you need to be.

Best of luck!
