Day 37,
I'm posting to remove the spiderwebs.
I'm well over 2/3rds through the book 'Mastery' by Robert Greene.
My ear training has improved; one exercise that had me stumped is now rather easily accomplished; I can recognize about 20 notes in a row, and I have to do this twice in order to move on.
I have a gig coming up on Saturday night; I'm playing solo, so I have to not only know my stuff, but drive it by myself. I now have a good incentive to practice much more; yesterday, I practiced between 4.5 and 5 hours. I should probably put some cap on my daily practice if this continues.
I've cut out Spanish from my daily routine, as it cuts too close to Italian, plus it gives me more time per language; 25 minutes each for Italian and Korean. I'm unsure whether I'll run the Korean sub to drive that into my skull permanently; I am making some steady progress, at least it reading aloud and understanding meaning.
I may educate myself on business skills; my first book will be 'Millionaire Fastlane'. It's not available in the library, so I'll buy it. The rest I'll find in the library.
