The steps to more productive practice time:
Specifically .. Define your Goals .. Identify Fundamental skills to learn .. Establish a practice session design .. visual charts to learn scales and chords at your fingertips .. Keep a notebook; a journal of your ideas, focus on rhythm, and learn some songs. These things get you started.

Goals: Anything we practice implies we perform. What do you want to perform? A 12 Bar Blues. A song. Campfire songs. Various forms of music span a wide set of skills. So choose. What type of music makes you want to play. What techniques and skills are used in that type of music. You can construct a practice routine that incorporates these goals, so you learn something specific, tangible, sequential. Go to the GOALS TAB here to build out your GOALS definition.
