For me it's getting more fluent with connecting what I hear to what I play while improvising. Interested in hearing everyone else's goals!

Connecting what you hear to what you play while improvising is essential for developing as a guitarist. Keep pushing yourself to make that connection stronger.

I agree with Markw72, the connection between what you hear and what you play is crucial. Keep practicing and it will become more natural over time.

Working on arpeggios is a fantastic way to improve your rhythm, theory, and technique all at once. Keep at it and you'll see progress!

The answer is always practising arpeggios for me. Everything else is just for enjoyment. When you practise arpeggios, you practise essentially infinite combinations of applicable rhythm, theory, and technique.
