Why we gave up on learning how to play an instrument? (lemm.ee)

I regret buying a guitar, I can't even do the simplest shit on it according to YouTube... I dunno if it's laziness or just being tired of sucking so much and not being able to play the music that I like... Maybe a mix of both?

I'm a #4 then. The one who knows all the theory but don't care about practicing. I can play a lot of different instruments badly.

Now this is not necessarily a bad role, because if you want to perform live it's absolutely necessary to simplify things in order to ensure that you can actually deliver something and not get thrown off by imperfections or getting bored with certain parts.
