You are cordially invited to join the Practice Accountability Challenge - Team 2025 (that's PACT2025)! The challenge starts January 1st.
This is a team-oriented accountability challenge designed to energize and support everyone's piano practice. PACT tracks any amount of time on your piano practice (that can be 5 minutes, 30 minutes, an hour - that's completely up to you!)
There are no PACT police. The challenge is based on the honor system. You get to choose which instrument to use, and what activities effectively and meaningfully support your practice. PACT is meant to be flexible, welcoming, and encouraging rather than competitive. Ideally, everyone thrives and completes the challenge!
CHALLENGE GUIDELINES
Join this challenge by adding a comment to this thread with your pledge to participate.
Signing up is your pledge to engage in activities that effectively and meaningfully support your piano practice for any amount of time, every day, for the whole year.
We have no means to distribute a forum award, apart from a pat you can give yourself on the back when you complete the challenge. We'd love to hear about your accomplishments and challenges throughout the year.
You may join the challenge at any time, but anyone who joins after August 1st of the challenge year will be considered a late starter.
Unexpected events happen that derail even the best laid plans. By signing up, you also pledge to report any absences by leaving a comment in this thread. If you want to explain why you've missed a day (make us laugh, make us cry, make us cheer), you may be as dramatic as you want, but only the date(s) that you didn't practice are mandatory for the report.
We will see your comment and add your absence(s) to the list posted at the bottom of this invitation.
