I practice more now than I used to, and I appreciate my practice sessions much more as I get older.

I separate practice from playing for enjoyment; mixing the two can lead to insecurities during performances, so I keep them distinct. When I practice, I'm problem-solving rather than just playing.

The joy of getting better at a skill often comes from the practice itself, rather than from questioning the method of practice.

As I age, I find beauty in my work that I didn't see before, and I appreciate the moments when everything goes well during practice.

I used to work with a lot of negative energy, but now I see beauty in my practice that I didn't notice when I was younger.

I practice slowly and in sections, staying appreciative, aware, and focused, which helps me practice better and struggle less.

At the end of the week, even if I only practiced an hour a day, I often find I've made significant progress on a specific issue, which is more fulfilling than just playing casually.

My definition of practice is problem-solving; I focus on one problem until I fix it instead of just playing through pieces without purpose.
