Few questions about time management
Hi folk, I wanted to ask you about time management of yours. How exactly do you arrange your time every day for studying and working with 3D? Maybe you are using scheduled daily routine, or maybe it more spontaneously? Can 3D artist arrange your day without fatigue, or it's impossible thing to do? For example, one half of people tell that 8 hours week = exhausted, another that it's obviously normal. I'm studying in a school of 3D art around 9 months, and I tried many different schedules, and for now, I invented schedule with 4-5 morning focusing hours of work every day without days off. It's approximately 28-35 hours per week. What can you say about my timetable?
P.S. I am modeller, is'n animator.

Mastering any discipline takes thousands of hours. Its up to you how fast you want to get there.
A person's focus and energy levels are mostly a product of physical health and fitness, diet and mental health.
When demotivation starts to kick in, notice it, experience how the feeling feels different from when you were pumped with enthusiasm when you first started working. You can consciously bring yourself back to that state, instead of just accepting it as gone, because how you feel and the state that you are in is up to you, it's not a product of the environment. You always find that the top performers in any field are those with the most passion, because it's what fuels the motivation, and scheduling systems try to get around the motivation problem, but it's impossible. With a schedule, you'll just fail to meet the schedule, give yourself a hard time, and nothing is achieved except now you feel worse about yourself, which associates more negativity with what you try to learn, and after this goes on for a while you lose interest in the subject because the emotional grounding is no longer there. We are biological creatures, so no matter how well you formulate an intellectual plan, and how ardently you swear to stick with it, it will go out the window when the emotion regulatory system kicks in.
