1
00:00:00,470 --> 00:00:01,370
Well, hi there, everybody.
2
00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:06,350
First up, I'd like to talk about practicing now, I think it's really important to develop some good
3
00:00:06,350 --> 00:00:11,930
practice habits, and I'm convinced that you can make a lot of progress with as little as 30 minutes
4
00:00:11,930 --> 00:00:12,530
per day.
5
00:00:12,860 --> 00:00:18,170
And I would encourage you to try and find a little time each day to practice rather than, you know,
6
00:00:18,170 --> 00:00:23,840
finding a couple of hours on a weekend here and there, because just chipping away at it daily will
7
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:27,200
really help you internalize all the information.
8
00:00:27,500 --> 00:00:31,610
And I like to practice in 15 minute segments.
9
00:00:31,820 --> 00:00:33,800
So 15 minutes blocks, I call them.
10
00:00:34,550 --> 00:00:40,670
And a good practice for working through this course might be watching the course material for 15 minutes,
11
00:00:40,850 --> 00:00:47,360
you know, per day, and then practicing the exercises in the songs for 15 minutes.
12
00:00:47,630 --> 00:00:54,350
And that that would be a good little practice session that that I would recommend incorporating into
13
00:00:54,350 --> 00:00:55,100
your routine.
14
00:00:55,440 --> 00:01:03,950
I love to practice in front of a mirror and that helps me to monitor my body and just see if I if I
15
00:01:03,950 --> 00:01:09,350
look like my shoulders up too high or if I look like there's tension in my body at all.
16
00:01:09,650 --> 00:01:18,380
What we want to aim for, as you know, guitarists, is a really relaxed and natural, you know, technique
17
00:01:19,130 --> 00:01:23,120
and natural body position and as little attention as possible.
18
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:24,920
So the mirror can help monitor that.
19
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:29,110
And it also gets us out of the habit of just staring down at our hands all the time.
20
00:01:29,540 --> 00:01:31,520
So that's a good tip.
21
00:01:31,790 --> 00:01:37,670
And, you know, when we're practicing, we want to try and make it as intentional and deliberate as
22
00:01:37,670 --> 00:01:38,240
possible.
23
00:01:39,260 --> 00:01:45,910
Deliberate practice is what the experts agree is, is the secret to to making progress on an instrument.
24
00:01:46,130 --> 00:01:53,120
I think there's a time and place for noodling and, you know, just having fun playing, but, you know,
25
00:01:53,300 --> 00:01:59,720
establishing a habit of deliberately practicing each day, even for short amounts of time, 15 minutes,
26
00:01:59,900 --> 00:02:04,610
you know, can't can be enough time to to to make some progress.
27
00:02:04,910 --> 00:02:12,020
And if you keep at it and stay positive and trust the process, I'm convinced that you'll make leaps
28
00:02:12,020 --> 00:02:12,650
and bounds.
