Will aim to sleep about 9hrs a night, consume DHA and creatine.

Objective for the week:
See how fast I can progress with full immersion.
Record songs if ready.
 
Another day done, already helping knowing I don't have work tomorrow. I feel so much sharper mentally with fewer distractions.
 
Ran into a funny problem today. There's a couple techniques that I think I need different length nails to do. My preference is to have no nails but two of the songs I'm doing are from very different genres. Gonna try to find a workaround
 
Done again, I've added another song to help target a technique sticking point.
I'm finding I'm still running out of focus but it improves if I learn new stuff - I can practice all the work in progress songs till they feel stale and then add something new when my focus deteriorates and push it a bit further.
Not working is fucking nice though just because of the extra energy.

Had a signing lesson today. My range is already solid and got more exercises.
