Let's get some inspiration!
I wouldn't get hung up on technique. I still think I should take some proper lessons to get rid of the bad habits and shortcuts I've picked up - mostly because I'm left handed, but trying to play like a righty (aka Joe Strummer style). Bottom line: Left hand is too quick for the right, which has trouble some times even finding the correct strings. Leads to a lot of hammer on/offs when I should be picking (I cheat).
Some days you're on, some days not so much... lol
One of my friends here at HughesNet is a big metal guy and has an awesome collection of Kiesel guitars. Every time I go over to his place and he plays, it makes me want to give up. Crazy how good some people are, and sometimes it feels impossible to get there :smileylol:
Then I watch a few tutorial videos and my motivation goes back up.

My friend with the Les Paul Studio is like that. When he was thinking of buying my strat and came over to look at it, he plugged it in, turned it on and made music on that thing I can only dream of. He's one of those guys who can change complicated chords really quickly. It's amazing. I just kind of sat slack jawed. :p
