What Is Practice?

I had a good practice session today. Even though it was interrupted a few times I think I improved a little bit.

Some of the practice was with a metronome. Some of the practice focused on one bar of the song. Some of the practice time was spent just playing songs I know.

The common advice is to make sure to practice every day. A little every day is better than a lot all of at once. Usually I play at least a little everyday. But not always with the intention of getting better. I think the common advice is valid but that is not my reality. Sometimes I just don't have the energy after a long day at work.

I do what I can as I far as practice is concerned. I'm in the no particular hurry to get better but I do want to get better. But whatever I do has to be relaxing and fun. If not, I meander.
