You’ve probably heard me say this before:
“Practice on the days that you eat.”
And I say it for a reason — actually, a few really important ones.
Let me break it down...
1. Don’t Skip Days — Even a Little Bit Counts
Some days you’ll feel inspired. Other days, not so much. But the truth is, consistency always beats intensity.
Even 5–10 minutes of focused practice keeps your hands moving and your brain engaged.
Skipping “just one day” turns into two, then a week… and before you know it, you’ve lost momentum.
Practice doesn’t have to be perfect — it just needs to happen.
2. Build the Habit — Keep the Routine Alive
When you eat every day, you don’t have to think about it — it’s just part of your life.
That’s the point.
We want your guitar practice to become automatic.
Something you naturally make time for.
By showing up every day (just like you do at mealtime), your brain learns: “This matters.”
3. Stay Connected — Keep Music on Your Mind
Daily playing keeps the guitar in your hands, and in your head.
You’re more likely to experiment, have fun, or stumble into something cool when it’s part of your everyday routine.
You’re not starting from scratch each time — you’re building on what you did yesterday.
It keeps your passion alive, and your progress rolling.
Bonus: It’s Not About Perfection — It’s About Presence
You don’t need to master a new technique every day.
Some days it’s about reviewing.
Some days it’s just playing a favorite riff.
Some days it’s just touching the guitar and staying in the flow.
But when you show up, you remind yourself that music is a part of your life — not just a hobby that waits around for free time.
So yeah… Practice on the days that you eat.
Because when you stop showing up, progress slows.
When you stay connected, things start clicking.
And over time — you become the player you’ve always wanted to be.
Stay positive. Keep practicing...on the days you eat...
