Well,the thing is to listen more to what you're playing,
give yourself more into your playing,
hear the music you wanna play.
It needs good fretboard knowledge to execute
certain music thoughts "in a walk" of course.
Another good thing is to sing melody and play it real time,
this is also one of those advanced techniques
but nothing is impossible,just tales more time and practicing.
And the very best way to understand the structure
is to analyze some solos you find inspiring,
find out what's the deal with those solos,
why they sound the way they sound,
is there a peak moment,culmination,
how it was achieved etc.
But wouldn't it be planning and not improv then?
I really try to sing in my head what I want to play, but I can't pull it off on all the licks, and I think that's causing some of the unstructure.
I heard Emir talked, he said he focused on each chord, and got ideas from that.
Do you do that also?
It seems like a very good idea, imo.

Great way to get more known with chords too, seemingly
