Have you ever just been sitting there, strumming on a uke, when it suddenly dawns on you that you're ready to advance to the next level of playing?
It hit me about a month ago that I've learned just about everything it seems I can under the beginner banner, so its time to move up into intermediate territory.
So then the question comes, what's next?
Some of it seems obvious, like learning the basic scales and searching for more challenging tabs. And, of course, practice practice practice.
But how does one keep challenging themselves to become a continually better player?
I've gone farther in three years with the ukulele than I have with over ten years at the guitar, which is an encouragement of itself. But I don't want to stagnate - I want to keep improving my techniques and chops on the uke.
So I guess this thread is for all of those who were beginners, but have since gone on to more advanced playing. What keeps you motivated? What keeps you inspired to practice and dig for new gems to learn?
