I've played drums "off and on" my entire life; but I keep getting stumped by 'fluency'. Any tips for motivation or fun lessons?

And keep chasing that feeling! It's worth it to push through the tedium and frustration to achieve it. And the plateaus are real and are many lol but dont let that be a punishment. One of the best things about instruments and music in general is you are never finished. You always get to keep working at it. What a lucky and happy task to be tasked with.
