		<description><![CDATA[Rather than focusing on recording practice time in a log, consider a pre-practice log. A sort of pre-flight checklist.

What is the plan for the session?
What spots will you work on?
What is the outcome?
How long will  you practice for?
When  you will take a break?
How long will your break be?

Be specific!!
