follow the chords, not the genre

so now I"m thinking to let my study of chords guide me in my guitar study, more so than any particular genre or label.  Jazz is great, but I don't think of myself as a jazz guitarist.  i like the chords I've studied, and will continue to work with them.  What I play will depend on what interests me at the time.  It might be jazzy, or more in the blues genre, or more rock.  I'm eclectic, and not good at sticking to one genre.
