How about learn how to practice PROPERLY. Hint: most don’t
That seems like an entire book in one sentence. Could you unpack that and be a little more specific
on what you think "proper practicing" actually is.

Ok, here’s a basic example. Most people don’t even use a metronome. On top of that how many actually can count when they play.That seems like an entire book in one sentence. Could you unpack that and be a little more specific

I wholeheartedly agree with practicing with a metronome. It was one of the first things my clarinet private teacher told me to buy, and use, and he could play with feeling and swing any time he wanted, as well as play technically-challenging music, all perfectly.Ok, here’s a basic example.

Exactly but I guarantee there are people reading this that can't even play with a click.I wholeheartedly agree with practicing with a metronome.

You use a metronome to learn to play in time. It's simply a tool. The "feel" thing is definitely also important, and is developed in a different manner, imo.
But that's ok, if that's what you're going for, right?Exactly but I guarantee there are people reading this that can't even play with a click.
Voices Carry. First time I tried working it up, I realized he wasn't playing the root. No wonder the chords sounded fresh. And that chorus!2. Don't play all the notes of the chord. Let the bass, keys, or other instruments play some of the notes in the chord. It makes things more interesting to the listener and allows you to edit the story you are telling in the song.
Queensryche did this a lot. For that very reason. Iirc, one would take the basic chord, and the other would take an upper note of that chord, and add his own extensions, and together they'd produce a more complex chord.5. If two guitars are playing together, play different chord shapes or partial chords in different regions on the neck with different tones. It will allow you both to be noticed by a listener and you will avoid "more me" battles and frustration regarding both of you not being able to cut through in a mix.
