Hi Sharyn, the Dan Crary strategy of setting yourself modest goals is designed for just the situation you raise. By achieving your goal, however small, you will have had a success and that will lift your spirits. Tomorrow you can achieve another goal and that way, little by little, you lift yourself off the plateau that we all find ourselves on from time to time.

I sometimes try to work out something I know already, but in another key, or I take a banjo run I like and work it out on guitar, or a melody of a song .........
