So, it's quite known that deliberate practice makes or breaks your craft, so naturally I want to focus more on the quality of the session rather than getting my 10.000 hours in. But first, I want to understand what criteria are necessary for defining a "good quality" practice session.
So I'm curious about how you measure your quality of your session? Do you focus on how many challenges you've faced or how many goals you've achieved or smth entirely different?
#How do you personally measure the quality of your practice sessions?

this is a great question! for me when i practice, i always have an idea of what i want to do. it might be to focus on a song or two and really analyze it and figure out how to sing it correctly. sometimes i might want to do some recordings of a handful of songs so that i can come back and study what i need to improve for my next singing session. the reality is, you arent going to accomplish things every single session. all of the practices you do improve your craft and give you more experience whether you see it or not. you see yout improvements over time as you practice more often. you may notice that your range has expanded or you developed vibrato. the idea of a successful session varies from person to person. so even if you feel like you didn’t accomplish anything, just the fact that you took the time to practice is a big win because all of the practices you do help no matter what you did or didnt accomplish. you justneed to be patient with you voice and understand that it takes time to achieve your goals. its certainly a process but its a fun one for sure
i suppose my definition of a quality session would be, most importantly, to have LOTS of fun singing my favorite songs, to WARM UP🔥🔥 because even doing that makes you a better singer, and to have put in 100% of my effort. even though i didn’t accomplish any goal i set our for myself, i am working up to achieving those goals through my practices.

Thank you! I see why this mindset is more sustainable and healthier in the longterm. The quote "You only fail once you stop trying" really fits in the situation here
