Two hours before a concert, I take a nap and generally avoid playing a lot on the day of the performance to prevent overexertion.

On concert day, I prefer to stay in my hotel room, practicing very little, usually just a short session in the morning and maybe an hour before the performance.

If you nap, avoid napping too long or too late in the day to prevent disrupting your nighttime sleep.

Before concerts, I always maintain the same style in my appearance and on my guitar, ensuring the strings are new, as old strings can ruin a performance.

To optimize napping, aim for a 20-minute nap between 1:00 PM and 3:00 PM, and avoid napping too late in the day to prevent disrupting nighttime sleep.

I delay my caffeine intake for 90 to 120 minutes after waking to avoid a caffeine crash later in the day, optimizing my energy levels.

I prepare for events by reviewing my notes on my beliefs and experiences, reading articles, and doing intense physical training to ensure I'm ready for long hours on stage.

Before performing, I remind myself of the specific sections in the music that I need to focus on, which can be stressful.

Napping in the afternoon is fine, but avoid napping too late or for too long to prevent disrupting your nighttime sleep.
