We'll learn how to assess what you can realistically accomplish, give those goals real dates, break them into checkpoints, and turn those into weekly and daily practice plans - with room to adjust when life happens. If you practice a lot but feel like your practice is aimless, chaotic, or without direction, this video can help!
