Focus on What You are Practicing– “getting in the practice zone”
To focus means to close or narrow attention. Another way to say it is concentration or a condition in which something can be clearly perceived. I know people who like to practice while watching television. I submit to you that if you are trying to learn something new or grow in your playing ability, you can’t practice effectively while watching TV. You can noodle around and play the stuff you already know, but not really get into new stuff.

Golfers talk about getting into a zone. As a matter of fact, many great athletes talk about getting into the zone. I believe you can accomplish your most effective practice when you are in the zone.

What is the Zone? When you're in the zone you are so focused on what you are practicing or playing that your awareness is enhanced in a way that is difficult to explain. Your confidence increases and it seems you can accomplish major improvements (make major strides) while in that state of mind. So, how do you get there? First of all, this isn't something you can force. But, you can increase the odds of getting there by making it a habit to do the following 4 things.

  1. No distractions! Shut yourself off from the rest of the world during practice time.
  2. Focus! All your attention should be on the thing you are trying to play.
  3. Relax! Trying to focus might cause you to become tense. You must control that tendancy. Eventually you will associate relaxing with focusing your attention.
  4. Approach your practice time patiently and methodically...
