The goal is a 30-day rehearsal streak (maximum) during the fall term. It fits perfectly into November, which hath 30 days, as you know, but it can be accomplished anytime during the term. It’s up to you to start it, track it, and announce your victory to me. Get help from your grownups as needed.

It’s also up to you to figure out what’s reasonable, and make that your goal. Is 24 days more reasonable than 30? Do that.

What counts as rehearsal? That’s up to you, but I would count meaningful engagements with your music as more important than the number of minutes you spend. Work for progress and enjoyment, not for the timer. Then do that tomorrow, too.

When you have accomplished your mission (however you defined it), you will have more skills than you started with. This is the goal, of course.

Bonus: you also get to sign your name and/or draw a picture for my office door to celebrate. Nice and big and bold, you champion. And then we all get to cheer for each other.
