Well dude, and i dont really know what to say except let you in on my practice schedule
its not really you know like everybody elses...20 mins on scales, then 20 mins on jamming, 30 mins on learning something new, and then 5 mins on stretchs....or yea know w/e something liek that
but mine...is like lets say on a usual day about 6 to 8 hours of practice....i start off by playing different things slowly to warm up....no set time...its just whenever i feel as if i am warmed up enough...then i will probably go over some of the newest lessons that i dont know all the way yet...for a bit (NOTE: i never set a time on how long i should play something before i move on) so i dont forget them, then well i mostly just play the lessons here from gmc..like i dont practice scales....for speed picking...going up and down up and down....fast...for my ap i just play like lets say Pavel's new lesson..and will just play that..so thats my practice on ap...and then for like sweeps well i pratice there lessons here....everything i do i practice the lesson shere on....theres not 2 much of just practicing scales....i mix it all up..like ill be playing pavels new lesson..finish that..go over it again..then play Gab's new lesson, like 1 or more times..then go back to pavels...then to another lesson (NOTE: I play MANY MANY different lessons from GMC)..i jump around..so i dont get bored playing 1 thing...and inbetween all that...ill pratice licks...and improvastion..using scales..or such....when switching between lessons..cus ideas will pop in my head...and then sometimes so i dont forget scales...inbetween switching lessons..ill play every single Scale i know..about 2 or 3 times..in different orders..but yea..well ill do that for the whole im playing.just switching around..........i dont know..if this a good pratice schedule ro not..but it works for me..and keeps me happy, and motivated..and i usualy see results pretty quickly...and as i said before i mix everythign up...so yea..well pavels new lesson..1 time ill play it fast..then teh next ill go over every single lick and part of it..SLOW SLOW SLOW SLOW...and then fast again,etc. etc. etc. and ill do that for every lesson....I JUST NEED TO GET THIS METRENOME DOWN...
my advice to you though is, never give up, its hard sometimes but TRUST ME it gets better, and mix things up when you get bored....you wont die and nobody can ever get mad at you for not sticking to you regular schedule, and just truly know what you want, and if you do alll this you shouldnt lose motivation (NOTE: thats how i do it, and it works for me so maybe it will work for you)
