Day 9, #100daysofpractice How the hell am I supposed to get the practicing I need done when there are a million things going on all the time?

Day 8, #100daysofpractice

Comparing myself to others is my greatest demon.

Day 7, #100daysofpractice

I am especially proud of myself today. Had a very long teaching day, practiced when I got home, and then finished and submitted an application for a summer festival.

I’m realizing how many excuses I make for not practicing that I can fight against. This challenge helps.

Day 6, #100daysofpractice

For the past 5 years, I focused a lot on my career. For the next 3 years, I want to devote myself to just playing my best and learning. Time to hunker down.

One thing I have to practice is patience (never been good at it). Mastering an instrument is a lifelong practice.

Day 5 of #100daysofpractice. Practiced from 10-11pm when I got home from being at the CMA conference all day. Hair & makeup still on from tonight’s event.

Day 3 of #100daysofpractice

These past few days of practicing have been really unproductive. My mind is scattered, and I spent an inordinate amount of time trying to find scores that I now think disappeared into thin air. 

Tonight, I had to make a special effort to practice. I’d been out all day at a conference and wanted to just head to dinner with Austin but I didn’t want to break this challenge on only the third day so I forced myself to go home and practice sort of haphazardly and unfocused. But I did it.
