Be inspired by others; compare yourself to you. Steady improvement is your goal, and it's individual. That may include some slowdown, some lack of interest. Accept that, remove the pressure of being "as good as" others, and you'll find the learning will continue and you'll be eager to shoot again.

Thanks for your reply Jiminy
You nailed it in the first paragraph, i am creating that wall. What ever i do i have to do well, my expectations on myself are higher than my experience, schooling, equipment, and skill level. As with photography and taking good photos i have to learn "patience"
