I would like to stress a point that most of people wanting to change miss.
You want to draw more. You go ahead and discuss the ways in which to do it, the program, the schedule and so on.
What most people are missing, is the realization that its fine to know the theories of how to git gud at drawing. Do you know what makes a difference between someone who is good at drawing and someone who is shit, lazy, cant make himself do anything? Its not that the first person has a better schedule. Thats just surface level shit. In essence, what the first person has, that the second doesnt have is a right MINDSET.
You can wishfully think about learning to draw all you want, but if you are not in control of your emotions, of your thoughts of your desires and so on, you wont be able to go through the plans that you made.
Everyone forgets that. They live a life of mediocrity, masturbation, lazyness and boredom, and they think they can just jump in to a 8 hour per day work routine, just like that. The truth is, you CANT. Because you are WEAK. You have not trained your will power. Your values are all over the place. We are all more or less this way. We dream big, and boy, we love to plan like the big boys, but we forget what it actually takes.
Listen, if you want to really get good at drawing and you cant do it by simply wishing yourself in to an 8 hour routine, you have a different path ahead of you. You have to rewire yourself to enjoy work. You have to learn to not give in to the first desire to quit. You have to learn to motivate yourself. You have to find what makes you tick, you have to find your weaknesses.
What most people are missing is the sharpening of the most important tool you have-yourself.
Learn to meditate, start working out(for the simple reason that it changes your brain chemistry in a positive way), learn about habits and their creation. A month of 1 hour a day drawing is better than two days of 8 hours, 3 days of 2 hours and quiting drawing for months.
