On a daily basis I kind of cycle thru my song list (a growing list in iTunes that I play to), practicing particular forms for speed, new lessons, and just jamming, maybe to backing tracks or just laying a structure for myself and going with it.

I confess that I mostly just jam :) But what I find is that everything works together. I may not have practiced, say the pentatonic runs in triplets, but when I go back to them, the other jamming I've worked on must have helped, because I'm better at it.

So, it's all good, although if approached with more discipline than I possess, I imagine you can progress faster. I'm in it for the fun and expression, I have no particular goals other than being able to be expressive.

Anyway, if you Google around a bit, you can actually find some suggested practice schedules. I was reading one a while back and it had forms you could print off to track your goals, etc.
