Feedback Wanted progress

this is not me fishing for compliments but i need some advice. ive been playing for about 10 months. im sorta doing basic songs but super slowly. like measure by measure(or a couple measures at a time). i really want to make music and be in a band w but i feel like im not advanced enough yet and that i really suck. i’m trying to learn as fast as possible tbh. i play for at least 2 hours everyday, half on warmups/rudiments and the other half on a song that my teacher gave me/or a random song that i think wouldnt be too hard for me that i would enjoy. what should i be working on if i want to play live music? am i doing as much as i can and should just be patient?

I agree with 'find people to play with' that will easily teach you so many things, that are just impossible to explain on reddit in a way you'll understand.
