I prefer shorter, focused practice sessions over longer, unfocused ones because quality is more important than quantity.

To enhance productivity, I set aside 20 minutes each day to think deliberately about specific topics, which helps me maintain focus and structure in my thoughts.

If I have a short time to prepare, I switch to higher gears to get things done more quickly, and practicing twice a day can be more effective than once a day. I focus on being efficient with my practice, spending time on what truly matters and avoiding distractions.

During a 90-minute work session, I aim to enter a focused state, turning off my phone and using low-level white noise to enhance learning and workflow. I find that achieving this focused work state can be challenging, but once I do, it feels incredibly satisfying, like a workout for the mind.

I started organizing my time to practice less but achieve more, which I encourage my students to do as well.

If I can't sit down for a long practice session, I use short moments, like five minutes between lessons, to address specific issues on the guitar.

Timeboxing helps you be mindful of how long to spend on any given problem, ensuring you don't waste time on unproductive efforts.

I use a metronome set to 60 beats per minute to keep my practice on track and maintain control over my finger movements.

When I engage in a project, I dedicate all of myself to it for that period, ensuring total focus without outside distractions, and I try not to think about it when I'm away from it.
