Re: Focus
some players write elaborate practice/lesson plans (for themselves or students), or keep a detailed journal/diary/log of everything music related, or both. A sample practice plan: http://www.notreble.com/buzz/2011/10...onal-practice/
But probably you're not aiming to be a pro player and you don't have a lot of time. So aiming for 3 good practice sessions a week is good, and always warmup, every day. You can make the last part of warmup challenging, picking wise or ear training/theory wise or other ways. For some also, it helps to analyze your difficulties or what doesn't flow that well in your tunes and work on those points.
