Try working on learning the scales -- the pentatonic and the major scale to start out.
Well we all shine on--like the moon and the stars and the sun.
-- John Lennon
To expand on what Muse said as you work the scales vary the rhtym using a metronome so start by playing them in quarter notes, then eigths, sixteenths and triplets.
Skip strings etc.

Along with any theory you want to learn, technique and different ways to play the strings may open some new doors.

As said, scales would be a nice thing to get on with. Then there would be arpeggios, building your technical abilities etc etc. And as much as I dislike it myself, learning a bit of theory for a couple of minutes each day could prove to be very helpful.
There's a little something written about "expansion" on "Wiki Guitar". I don't know if it'll help, but it's worth a read: http://www.wikiguitar.net/index.php?title=Lesson_3:Expansion
Play with others, play with others, play with others, and then find some more people to play with. I cannot stress enough how much playing with other people can and will help your own playing.
