Stage 5, Day 4
Another planned day; went pretty well until 5pm; my schedule ended at 3pm, but I kept going while waiting for my one family member to come down. We had dinner and spent some time together until 8:30pm.
I'm really taking the concept of deliberate practice seriously; as much silence as possible, spot treatment, I'll record myself and analyse it, slow and steady, but apparently you get crazy results from doing that. I'll probably do one hour for acoustic guitar and one hour for voice each day, and that's it, since firstly it's very tiring, and secondly, I need to study much more than I do.
Occasionally, it feels like I'm slipping back; dang mastery curve. MLS is really helping me blow through these curves faster, so I improve 2 steps, then regress 1, much more frequently.
I got impatient this morning with a classmate who is so meticulous and anal about classwork; we have an in-class work assignment, only 4 of the 11 questions are graded. She spends so much time on the first questions, which don't even mean anything, thinking through the best worded and wordy answer. Needless to say, I was kind of pissed. That is, until I hit solution mode, and I figure that 'I' would take care of some of the important questions.
Needless to say that I'm back on a roll! 2 days straight of proper morning rituals.
