I read about the 30-30 in TextFugu quite a while ago, and decided to give it a try, because it sounded like a good plan. And at first it did wonders – I managed to complete everything I wanted to during the day, in a manageable amount of time. But I eventually stopped doing it and reverted to my chaotic way of doing Anki reps and stuff here and there, without any consistency, which obviously results in me not doing any of it until the day is nearly over, and by then I’m often too tired to do anything, so I end up not learning at all.
Problem is, whenever I try timeboxing of some sort, after some time I feel like I live my life in “blocks” of 30 minutes. Or 20 minutes or however much time I set for me to do things in. It makes me feel anxious, and if my sechedule is broken, because I have to be away for the day or I just want to play some Terraria with a friend and it’s kind of hard to limit it to 30 minutes, I feel anxious too. It always leads to me dropping the timeboxing method, even if it works.
God, I just read what I wrote and it sounds incredibly stupid. It’s not even like I used the 30-30 schedule for my entire day, no, I did that maybe for 2-3 hours a day. It still didn’t really work out.
So… anyone out there who’s as crazy as me, or am I the only one? o_O
