How to balance life and guitar??
I get this question…A LOT. For professional musicians it’s easy, its how they make a living. So it’s not hard to make it a priority. But what about everyone else?? I’m sure everyone of you would love nothing more than to have all the time in the word, zero distractions, and perfect practice sessions. But that is not reality is it? So what can you do? Let’s break it down. 1️⃣ Time. Finding time is crucial often times the best time is early before the day steals away your time. You don't need an hour. 15 or 20 minutes is plenty. And even in seasons when you're extremely busy, taking just two or three minutes here and there as you pass your guitar during the day is going to keep you making progress or maintaining your gains instead of forgetting a lot of what you've learned. 2️⃣ Planning As the saying goes “Those who fail to plan, plan to fail” just picking a time the night before can drastically increase the odds you’ll practice. And if you know exactly what you're going to play when you practice, even if it's just noodling for fun or trying something new, you're going to be able to hit the ground running the second you have a moment to pick up your guitar. 3️⃣ Enjoyment There is a time for drilling and exercising but the focus should always be fun. If it’s not, time to change things up. "If it's not fun, you're doing it wrong" - ancient Guitar Gym Pro proverb 4️⃣ Little and often Just 15 minutes 4 times a week is better than a Saturday marathon. And just 5 minutes a day is better than 40 once a week. The most important thing is that you commit to yourself that you are a guitar player. If you take the guitar out of the case and you play it, then you are a guitar player. The path may be different than you think. It may be windier, it may be longer, but you are a guitar player.

I found that my only choice some days might be to do ir before going to bed. It may be just 20 minutes and I think I read somewhere it may help with muscle memory.
