Here's a very simple, common sense idea - if you practice something more, you get better at it; if you can't complete everything you need to do, take more time.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It's not necessarily the amount of time you spend at practice that counts; it's what you put into the practice.
You might think that after 40 years of practice you wouldn't need to practice anymore, but sadly it doesn't work that way. You still have to keep chugging away and perfecting.
As you get older and gain more experience, you're able to do multiple things. You don't necessarily have to focus so hard on your performance in order to have a good one.
I learned early on how to make best use of my time. You know, quality is more important than quantity when it comes to practice time. And unfortunately, I still need to practice a lot.
When you are not practicing, someone else is getting better.
The more you do stuff, the better you get at dealing with how you still fail at it a lot of the time.
I'm a person who gets better with practice. Getting older is awesome - because you get more practice.
My father taught me that the only way you can make good at anything is to practice, and then practice some more.
Practice quality, and you get better at quality. But quality takes time, so by working solely on quality, you end up losing something else that's important - speed.
I'm a natural piano player. So all the practicing I do at this point is in my head. If I don't play for a year, my chops aren't going to get any worse. I've spent my time playing scales, and I don't necessarily want to play any faster than I play. So everything I do at this point is more philosophical.
