I don't want to be the lone naysayer in the group but is this really a new thing? I have been working with Mike for the last 1-2 years now and it seems to me that this issue has been with you as long as I can remember. You've always suggested you were just starting to figure things out, or had been reworking something you'd done "wrong" for the last so many years.
And honestly I think it is what keeps me taking lessons week after week. I'd often ask myself "how can I guy who seemingly has so much still want more?" I kept saying to myself. If I could just get to his level then I'd be happy, but Mike has shown me that there's always more to be hungry for, another thing to listen closer for, another thing we could be doing better. I would say if you lose this nagging feeling that you're not doing enough then more could be wrong than if you have the feeling. To me this is just a day to day feeling that needs to be worked through. I have accepted the pool of learning music is huge. That doesn't change, what changes is my feelings about said pool. Some days I feel exceptionally happy and grateful that I can swim around all day while never reaching one side. Other days I feel stranded out in the middle and want to get to an edge as soon as possible. The true testament I think is if you can keep going back day after day knowing you'll never be content and satisfied. Either way whatever you choose. You're still a hero to a lot of us and an inspiration. Good luck in your new quest. Mike
