I am certainly not saying you shouldnt look to others for inspiration, if i want to learn how to play like Ynqwie, i listen to Yngwie etc...
The whole point though is never get caught in a place in your mind where you feel inadequate, striving for perfection on the guitar is a long long battle there are still things all of us can and want to learn its a matter of focus.
Thinking you are not cut out for it because someone beat you in a "Guitar battle" for example. Thats ridiculous thinking. Just because i can't play like Steve Vai, doesnt mean i can't be on the same stage as him metaphorically speaking.
As i said, there are things all of you do that makes you unique, nobody can take that from you...develop it....hone it...master it...share it. Music has enough room for anyone willing to give it enough time and effort.
Certainly your level of success may differ than someone else, but that doesnt mean your not important. Always remember that.
