Know when enough is enough

A great practice session is one that leaves you feeling steady, not drained. If you are exhausted after a short burst of typing, the session has probably crossed the line from productive to punishing.

The smartest improvement plan is one that you can sustain for weeks, not just for a weekend.

Use lighter days on purpose

Light days are not wasted days. They allow your hands and mind to recover, which makes the next focused session stronger. That rhythm often produces better learning than pushing every day.

A thoughtful routine protects the habit from collapse.
