30 Day Practice Challenge: Check-in
Day 30 of my 30 Day Practice Challenge was last Thursday! I hadn’t even noticed it until I was doing some updating over the weekend. Guess this is a sign that things are going well.
Some observations:
- I practiced mainly trombone and bass.
- The consistency has really helped my playing, especially on trombone.
- I played guitar 4 times in the 30 days.
- I didn’t play piano, or sing at all.
- The amount and frequency of time that I spent on the trombone gradually increased over the 30 days.
- I seemed to find a good rhythm between the time spent on the bass and the time spent on trombone. My trombone “chops” never felt tired.
This has been a completely positive experience. I’ve decided to continue it for another 30 days. I’ll experiment with trying to play more piano & guitar. I still want to make singing a part of my daily life as well, so that’ll take some thought as to how to make it happen.
