For me it's practising every, or almost every day. When I taught guitar to beginners, I always stressed the importance of this "even if it is only for twenty minutes a day". Yet I will resist practising the songs I've written that I need to learn properly in order to have the confidence to perform/record them.

I mean, I "should" be working on my music right this minute, but here I am on mudcat. :`)

There always seem to be too much of everything else to do.
