I do something similar and I'll do both / either. Sometimes, I play the three songs I'm going to play at open mic. Sometimes, I work on a difficult part of a new song. Sometimes, I jump on a looper and practice improvisation. Sometimes, I'll work on a new song I'm writing. Sometimes, I'll just belt out an old song just cause it's fun.
No matter what, I don't FORCE myself to do anything with that time. I do what makes me happy that day. My goal for that time is to make it a great way to start the day.
