    I like to add a bit of variety. I’m moving pretty slow because I work two full time jobs, so burn out isn’t the right word but always being tired making it hard to get motivated is the right way to describe me. When I’m not studying or even feel like thinking I like to just sit and listen to the cartoons, that keeps me from a.)being bored and b)I’m still doing something even if I’m not actually doing something. . . . if that makes any sense. But my burnout wouldn’t be from studying Japanese just being super busy. And I have to disagree to about burnout is not possible if it’s something you want to do. I studied massage therapy and went on making a career out of it but in the end burnout still happened. Does that mean it’s something I didn’t want to do? Not at all I loved doing it and learned a lot but I’ve learned my lesson this time about 1)get rid of drama from others and 2)take my time. There’s no need to rush and stress yourself out because you’re not learning fast enough or you want to be done by “X” time. Relax and have fun!

    As everyone says going at your own pace is the best. But I understand how you feel, I have a pretty busy-bee schedule. My problem is I’m trying not to overwhelm myself and am going slow because I really want to have things memorized before I finish season 1 but I’m worried that because I’m going a bit slower then most I don’t want to get bored or run out of things to do in the time I do have for studying. So I need to plan my study times to be filled and no down time and they have to be fun! Otherwise a.d.d. kicks in and I see other shiny things to look at.
