If desire is the most important part of learning guitar(without it you wouldnt have even started), then concentration is the most important part of practicing guitar.
I often say to people that 20 minutes of focused practice can beat, hands down, 2 hours of normal practice, or just goofing about.
Many people are discouraged when they are told how much time they must put into practice. The truth is, you dont have to practice all the time to be a good guitarist.
(Im not saying you shouldnt have time to goof off and play around. But if you want to improve quickly, you must keep playing guitar and practicing guitar separate.)
Let me tell you now
It isnt how much time you put into practice, its the quality of the practice that matters.
When I play guitar, I play to have fun, I play to perform for people, and I play for the fun of playing! Thats why I started learning guitar in the first place.
But when I practice guitar, I focus and concentrate on what Im trying to achieve, and I work on the goals that I want to complete.
You see, if you completely focus on one thing you are more likely to do it well.
