A simple test to check how productive you are really: set a timer to 20 minute increments to monitor your practice throughout the day to see what you are able to accomplish in that amount of time. Revealing, no?
The timer can also be used to organize your practice time between, sections, pieces, etc, so that you don't get stuck on a piece/page and forget to move on.
