I watch the lesson and then practice it 10 minutes. That usually comes out to 20-25 minutes. At that point, it is what it is and I go on. Done and complete, my compulsive habit is satisfied. My commitment to myself and my guitar journey is met.
BUT I often (and usually) voluntarily come back later in the day and review or work on a quarterly task or play a song that is on my heart and that might be from a few minutes to over an hour. Some days because of life’s overhead it doesn’t happen. That time has no comparison thinking and is a free will effort and fun and annoys my wife because it is usually in her way. I do keep multiple guitars out of the case in habited spaces to facilitate this free will effort.
