Don't forget to have fun! The operative action with any musical instrument is to "play" it. If your scales suddenly turn into "Duelling Banjos", run with it. There's been quite a few times that I've been practicing one thing only to have it morph into something else (chord changes turning into a song, finger stretching exercises turning into "Smoke on the Water", etc.).

Remember that "All work and no play turns Jack into a boy band instrument performer." (Just watch them perform, they usually look like their souls are dying.) Have fun with practice and you'll have fun while playing later.
