Today's Total: 20 hours 9 minutes
I can remember a time about five years ago where getting 3 hours a day in playing and practice time was easy. A buddy of mine has at one point logged closer to 8 hours a day average. However, being that I'm a stay at home dad with a kid that just learned to crawl... I'm averaging 45 minutes a day so far.
The trick I'm finding is trying to look in between activities to get more time in. Even if that is just running a scale up and down and then playing through the changes of a random tune. Really, content isn't my problem. It's freedom.
I figure to reach the goal in two years (May 6, 2018), I would need to average about an hour and a half each day. That actually puts me ahead a little. I think I actually got 1.36 hours as my number. Either way, I'm half way to my average goal which means I have a lot of catching up to do.
The good news is that I've recently hit a streak of booking gigs. Adding a 2 hour gig into my mix hear and there makes a huge difference! Plus, I work a couple days a week at my church and I hadn't gotten to focus on music while there the last couple of weeks. Starting this week, that will change a lot.
There is a lot to be hopeful for. I'll be making it eventually!
