This might be an odd first post, but...
I'm working on motivation and goal setting (in general as well as toward music).
I'm just popping around some forums where I have a handle (#GenXJargonWarning), and some FB groups, and asking anyone interested in sharing to toss out ideas/tips for goal setting. Whether they're things you actually do or just ideas you have - there is no bad information you can give me if it's sincere.
If you see me doing this elsewhere, I apologize in advance - but I'm eager as it's the 2 week break between Spring and Summer session and I can just play with my instruments and indulge in self-improvement/self-care splendor until June (and even after that, summer session is light). I'd really like to start making some progress this summer while things are light - and trying some changes in this vacation seems like a good opportunity.

If a person is self motivated you will find time to practice and improve ! I have never set goals but I am so highly self motivated I don't feel I need goals ! I just want to be the best I can be with little talent and starting at an older age of 64.

I have no goals, just habits.
Start small....10 minutes a day, at least.
Always play....Never stop just because of school, work, family, etc.
Keep moving forward....Refreshers are good, but have a new tune, chord shape, etc. to learn.
Enjoy the journey....Music has no destination.
