Practice One Instrument a Day for 30 Days
For the next 30 days I’ll practice at least one instrument a day.
It doesn’t matter which one, as long as I practice it for a minimum of 20 minutes.
The instruments I have to choose from:
- Trombone
- Bass
- Guitar
- Piano
- Singing
This includes weekends. This includes days that I’m really busy.
My thinking on this is that I’ll be making some type of music a part of every day. Hopefully any type of burnout will be sidestepped by the fact that I’ll have 5 things to choose from.
20 minutes minimum on at least one instrument for 30 consecutive days doesn’t mean that I can’t practice more. It doesn’t mean that I can’t practice several instruments in a day. It simply means that I’ll be consistently making music a part of my everyday life. I’ll also be doing a variation of the same thing that I’m asking my students to do. My hope is that by committing to practicing at least one instrument a day for 30 days, I’ll be more likely to practice the other instruments and will practice for longer periods.
To sum up the challenge:
- I’ll practice at least one instrument a day (for a minimum of 20 minutes) for the next 30 days.
- Check-in date: June 15th, which is 30 days from tomorrow.
