Your guitar teacher was quite wise
Some killer tunes have been written with only a few chords and an interesting melody. That's what's great about songwriting
It can be simple and still be good. Also short and good

Th steps you are making are ok
But, don't resume to that and indeed, if the lady muse doesn't come to visit, it's a hell of a job to write a good tune without a good idea.
I for one have had a whole year in which I haven't written anything - 2013 that is
I have had some nice ideas since this year and I have recorded them and got them ready for being used at the right moment.
What I wanted to underline, was the fact that you don't and shouldn't become frustrated when you feel that no good ideas are coming
Leave the natural flow of things to occur and they will come when you least expect them.
Thank you Todd
I had a guitar teacher about 10 years ago and we always had this discussion - 'Chris, show me interesting chords and teach me about harmony!'
He always replied: 'Are you able to build at least 5 different songs with the same three or four chords?' 'You should be able to do that first!'
It took me about 7-8 years to understand what he actually meant
