Great advice I'd say. Especially the fact about taking it so seriously, just chill and have fun with it. But yeah you should practice your pents with a chord progression once you have learned them on the guitar. The easiest chord progressions to start with in major or minor is the I IV V (major) and i iv v (minor). I dunno if you understand that but if your practicing your G major pentatonic just play the chord progression Gmaj, Cmaj, Dmaj. A good first step because this chord progression is purely major, and anything you play in a g major pent is going to sound good. Same thing in the key of E minor just play a chord progression Em, Am, Bm with a E minor pent. You should see a pattern with these chord progressions. Those chord progressions are a great place to start, and don't work up chord progressions that are more than 4 notes, at least not until you are completely familiar with them.
