Think of it like this:
5 minutes practice is better than no practice at all.
I make myself do it before I play. And even when I only do 5 mins a day, the results become obvious quickly, and I've been playing half my life.
Also, practice can be less boring if you make it musical and not just practice technique. You could record a really basic chord progression in C major, and play your A minor scale over the top and try to mess around and come up with some little melodies.
For technique, I would recommend using a metronome app. Start real slow.
Sorry for the overload
Thank you!!
No worries at all. If you want more ideas, shoot me a message :)
