It's so important to practice the things that we like. Making a practice plan requires a look in the mirror, and seeing if this is really the stuff we want to hear later on when we play.
We play what we practice - so, always practice the exact things you like to play! What do you guys think about it? It may sound like something normal, but did you every get into situation of practicing something just because you've seen it somewhere else, or someone told you what to practice (although you knew inside that this is not your thing) -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

This is essential. Looking back to when I learned to play. I started with everything that I liked and nothing else. Only later on when I had decent understanding of the guitar and technique is when I started focusing on scales and arpegios independently.

Sometimes along the way, the knowledge comes on it's own. We should practice what we like, what we want to play. This is what will provide smoothest practice session and result.

Good topic! I always practice the thing that I like but curiously I can't use everything in every situation. For example... I like Sweep Picking but I couldn't use it in any of my current band's songs yet. It doesn't work.

Yeah, some styles just require specific techniques, I guess that's normal. There comes the fact that we learn bunch of different things, but end up using only few of them. Well, this is normal too I guess, cause it's important to know where to keep things simple and where not..
The question is, should we be spending time learning them in the first place, if some of the things are forgotten or not put into good use? This post has been edited by Ivan Milenkovic: Nov 1 2011, 10:45 AM -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE
