Continue ramping up until you reach your desired practice goal, which could be an amount of time or by tasks. After a few days of a five minute commitment, extend the time to 10 minutes. At the end of the five minutes, you decide if you want to practice more or not. Whatever the reason, the most important thing to do is set aside the “I shoulds” and “I need tos” and just plop on the bench and play.Ĭommit to five minutes. I’ll practice later” and later never comes. “Oh, I’m too busy this week,” is often the truth, but it’s could also be good ol’ procrastination – “Oh, I don’t have anything to do tonight.
It’s easy to get into a cycle of guilt or shame about not doing the things we know we need to do regardless of the reason. Well, the last couple of weeks, I’ve been off-track, especially when it comes to my own practice, but now that things have settled down, I’m jumping right back on the rails. It happens to us all – Someone’s sick and needs your help, there’s a holiday, the week is filled with appointments, or you start a new activity or job – whatever it is, it derails the normal schedule.
