Think You’re Too Busy to Practice Guitar? Watch This First

Описание: Are you really too busy to practice your instrument… or has your attention span been quietly hijacked?
In this video, we break down the myth of “I don’t have time,” why so many musicians struggle today, and how modern tech, dopamine loops, stress, and daily exhaustion sabotage your ability to sit down and play.

After 20 years of teaching and performing, I’ve watched practice habits collapse—from 2 hours a day to barely 10 minutes. In this video, I explain exactly why that happened and (more importantly) how to take your focus back.

You’ll learn:
🎯 Why social media steals hours of your day without you noticing
🎯 How dopamine and notifications destroy your focus
🎯 How to rebuild your practice routine using 10–20 minute micro-sessions
🎯 The psychology behind attention, energy, and habit-building
🎯 How to make practicing effortless again
🎯 Simple steps like disabling notifications, habit stacking, minimizing friction, and more

If you’ve felt stuck, unfocused, overwhelmed, or like music is slipping away from you — this video will help you take the first step back.
