Dont try to play, just listen. Listen to: PAt Metheny, Al di Meola, John SCofield, Chick Corea John McLaughlin, Wayne Shorter, Miles Davis, Dizzy Gellespie... this list goes on and on. Listen to jazz guys, (not just guitar guys, listen to all instruments, there were saxphones and trumpets in jazz before there were guitars, how do you think guitarists got all their ideas?) personally PAt Metheny and Al Di Meola are my favorite. Listen and try to copy what you hear. THen you can worry about adding those licks in your solos. You'll become what you listen to.
Practice 8 hours a day and God Bless you.
