 sociocultural context ... if people are making music all around, with a lot of good models, and people to play with, the learning of technique, which can take hours, can be part of a conversation.

 Translate the 'discipline' word, which has negative connotations (for me) into the word 'focus' and find the joy of focusing daily. (S.M.)

-Structure and very your practice for your own instrument:
+Structure and vary your practice for your own instrument:
 For example, with bagpiping you might play, beginning with 10 minutes, and building up to 1-3 hours per day in your year 7 +:
 Piobaireachd on Mondays and Thursdays
 March, Strathspeys and Reels on Tuesday and Fridays and
 Hornpipes, Jigs, Slow Airs, etc., on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
+Adapt such a structure for your own instrument.
