Notes

Summary

Sometimes people get better after they have not practiced their instrument for a little bit, but do not use that as a way of practice, you should never do that on purpose. One thing you could do is, say you are going to get in two ours of practicing your instrument, you could practice for one hour, take a break for about maybe 20 minutes to an hour and then practice for another hour.
