Instruments, Practicing, and Games
-
Have a goal for each practice session. This could be mastering a new song or accepting a new challenge.
-
Set a deadline for when you must have a certain piece done by. Make it reasonable.
-
Good practice means "intentional" practice. Do not goof off. Do not be distracted. Even if you practice for 5 minutes: make those 5 minutes full of uninterrupted music
-
Switch the time of day/setting for practicing. One week try practicing in the morning. The next week try practicing in the evening. Practice outside. Practice in a park. Go to a relatives house and play for them.
-
Leave the instrument out from time to time (in a safe spot), so when you would like to play: you just have to pick up the instrument.
Use the list (by choosing one item) below to help when practicing.
