Reply To: How do you make time for guitar practice?

Ancient thread but hey it’s got to be a timeless question…plus I’m new 🙂

I really struggle with this. One thing I’ve started doing is getting up early and getting in some quiet practice (no amp) before everyone else is up. So far so good. Another thing that works is to practice efficiently – have a plan and keep a timer going. A typical practice session might be:

5 min warm-up

5 min chord change practice (Am -> F, G->F)

5 min major scale 3rds, 75 bpm

5 min House of the Rising Sun practice

… and so on. As far as picking what to practice…I still struggle with that.
