To improve practice effectiveness, vary your approach. Ask: "How can I practice this differently? Easier? Harder?" Examples include changing location, speed (slow or fast), sensory input (eyes closed), focus (rhythm, sound, accuracy), problem complexity (simplifying or extending), and practice partners. This improves learning, self-awareness, and enjoyment. Practice at different location Practice Slower and Faster Practice with your eyes closed usually learning something physical Focus on something different. Break Things Apart or Extend Them
