Line 97:
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. Create an immersive milieu, by playing yourselves, where there's so much music around to 'converse' with, that your children pick up music freely, and learn by playing with.

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 veryvary 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.
