Practicing can get monotonous for me at times and I find it hard to stay focused but I still do as I feel every ball counts. However, one thing that surprises me is how many people practice without purpose. It’s sad because the people I’m talking about obviously are dedicated enough to put the time in. But the return on their investment is not being maximized. Why is that? I mean they spend a lot of time and money in pursuit of improving but there practice methodology needs brushing up. Surely we don't need to teach "practice with a purpose"?
