Hey Alex,

I was wondering if maybe we could come up with a daily routine for me. One of my main problems always has been, that I have so much that I want to do that I loose focus and just practice anything.

I am right now practicing the patterns for hands sync. Since I want to be able to create and play free over a variety of styles I really need to learn scales and their corresponding chords. As I said I dont quite get how to play over songs that escape from just playing ionian or the aeolian mode ( or simply pentatonic).
I have some basic skills in sweeping and tapping ( I even started to explore 8.Finger tapping xD) but I feel that my lack of understanding of harmony and theory is limiting me.
I realize what to practice, but I tend to practice too much issues at once. I realy could use help in coming up with a plan.

In general I have about 4-8 hours to practice since I work very few hours so I have more time for guitar. I cant say that I have time to practice EVERY day because I have to work shifts and night sometimes, but I am quite disciplined.

Im currently saving for a recording device ( br-800 because it has customizable drums.... I cant play without drums tongue.gif ) and once I get it I want to really start composing and recording. I think that playing music shows quick results because your problems become more apparent.

Ok thats that, Im really glad to have the opertunity to have you as a mentor because I feel you take real interest in you students.

Cheers Lixxx

PS: I will definitely do some of your lessons the latest is just so groovy so look forward to a take once I can record over mp3 tracks.
