That is an interesting tid-bit... I think it is more important to know HOW to
practice. To many people think they know how to practice, but I think it is a
skill aquiered by a private teacher, proffesor, etc. Someone who knows how to
practice can get the same amount of practice in in a lesser amount of time.
Get my drift?
