Practice piano at a time when you don't care who is listening so that you can make lot's of mistakes and play things over and over. If you have an average ability then it's all down to practice. The more you practice the more you learn.
Most people don't really want to 'learn' to play the piano or 'practice' the piano, they just want to 'play' piano. 'Play' sounds like fun, 'practice' sounds like a chore. We get this image from childhood-- some kid stuck indoors 'practicing' scales while all the other kids are outside the window 'playing'.
Of all, work out what you want to achieve. Do you just want to know all your chords without thinking about how they are formed-- then work out a practice routine that leads to that goal. Maybe you want to learn about inversions or chord substitution-- again, make the practice fit the goal.
I say 'proper' because a lot of people have an idea that practice IS just playing songs over and over. The golden rule is-- 'practice what you CAN'T play, not what you CAN play'.
Most people don't really want to 'learn' to play the piano or 'practice' the piano, they just want to 'play' piano. If you don't practice and you just play old familiar tunes you move rather slowly. The golden rule is-- 'practice what you CAN'T play, not what you CAN play'.

Piano practice can be fun too!.
Too many people think they don't have time to practice when really they just haven't found the time. How long should you practice-- that's up to what you want to achieve. Remember that 'playing' piano and 'practicing' piano are different.
Split your practice session into two halves. In the first half play the difficult stuff-- your mind is sharper to begin with-- then reward yourself with some reasonably difficult but enjoyable tunes. If you don't have a good piano and are serious about learning GO BUY A GOOD ONE.
Every fifteen minutes stretch your shoulders and arms and roll your neck to combat stiffness. Check out some Yoga exercises for shoulders and back.
