By finding a way to do something practical & musical with it right away. Use one idea to generate multiple musical examples. Apply it to a song I already know, a song I'm learning, find ways to use it to improve things I already do.

2. When do you start to integrate all those new things into your guitar playing? Once you mastered the skills? Right from the start?

ASAP! If you wait until you master an idea or technique, then you'll never get around to integrating it!

Hope this helps!
