Yeah I started out doing that with the guitar and then I hit a level where I didnt progress and I couldnt play the songs I wanted because I thought it was too hard.

Now I don't tend to learn new songs, but just pick up the guitar and start making new songs. The thing with this, my skill is not improving at all, im just playing the same old tricks and often play the same chord progressions and play the same arpeggio patterns.

I think im just a bit lazy.
