Practicing should be structured and goal-oriented, differentiating it from simply playing for enjoyment; regular, focused practice is more beneficial than sporadic, unstructured playing.

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

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.

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.

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

I know I'm prioritizing my time well if I'm consistently hitting my weekly goals, and I should regularly review my weekly updates to evaluate my progress and learning.

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

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.

Practicing takes patience and focus; it may feel long, but the actual time spent can be shorter than expected due to the intensity of concentration.
