I ran across this excerpt of Chick Corea practicing a piece by Bach and I thought I would share it with you. Notice how even a phenomenal pianist like Corea still breaks his practice down following the basic principles we discussed back a few months ago: having a defined objective (a specific piece), highly focused, incorporates immediate feedback (notice how he immediately stops himself on making a mistake), and pushes the boundaries of his comfort zone/

In particular, look at how he tackles the parts of the pieces that are challenging him. He slows it down to the point where he can play it correctly with no mistakes. Then he breaks the part down until he can figure out how he needs to play it. He even makes notes to himself in the music.
