>drawing necessary in your life
Only if it pays the bills, otherwise it's like squandering your lifetime/gayming.
>bUt nnnnooooooo you are creating something

Something that is going to pass by and be forgotten.

So are you here expecting someone to debate you into changing your mind about quitting the hobby or something? It's something for you to decide if it's worth your time or not.

Yes that shits fuckin boring. It's essential tho

One trick I have is putting faces I like on the bodies im learning, to motivate myself to draw. It makes me feel like I'm accomplishing something that I actually want to do

I think it's like learning to play an instrument. The shit only gets fun once you've slogged through the boring shit.

yeah video games, jerking off, eating junk food are a lot more funner than anything that takes a skill
long term achievements are hard to really look to especially if there's no survival reason to achieve them

the key is to reward yourself everytime you do something boring. when you finish a drawing, jerk off. when you finish a video, eat some candy, etc...
eventually you condition your brain to enjoy disciplined tasks

I think about the quality of my memories, I can't remember a lot of the time spent in rust, ark or other vidya, some great mements of course. I do remember trudging through finishing art work and coming out the other side feeling awesome about it. I think about this when I'm doing fundies or not fun parts of projects.

Like you? Like your life? Like everything you'll do? Like everything else you've spent time with? And I'm not talking about "you" in the sense "everyone", I'm talking about literally you.

Sort of. You'll always have down days. Try to find those bright spots of inspiration where you draw an idea that comes to your head and it quickly becomes fun again.

Some days it's fine to take a step back from studying and draw fun things that come to your head, you can't force it of course but if one day you're just like
>heh wouldn't it be funny to draw the stupid reddit frog getting cucked and post it on /v/ for infinite (you)s
Then just do it. Drawing is fun when you use it as a tool rather than as the means to an end.

Hmm I don't know about that, you should learn discipline by drawing when its not fun. Depends entirely on how you approach tho. If you're a hobbyist yea only draw when you *want* to

I don't mean never draw except when you want to, but make sure to indulge in those things when they appear.

Basically don't just tunnel vision on "learning" and actually get out there and draw the fun shit you wanted to draw originally or the fun ideas you have in the shower.
Yesterday I wanted to see an image of 2 anime girls fucking and i drew it almost exactly as i envisioned it. It was the most fun I had drawing all month despite drawing daily because it was throwing my idea on paper and actually accomplishing something. And moments like that really bring some enjoyment back into art when you're just grinding mindlessly daily.

That's what I mean when I say find those bright spots. There's only so much we can tunnel in on learning before any of us gets burnt out.

I genuinely believe that if you're having fun while you're drawing you aren't pushing yourself to improve, and that is my cope to justify that I have grown to completely despise the act of drawing itself

challenging yourself is fun anon
that's why people like to master difficult games, learn to play musical instruments, etc
you just need to find the right level of challenge

I don’t understand people who have thousands of hours in games. Instrument players are rare as far as I’m aware too. I can understand a guitar and piano that’s easy to pick up for fun, but any other instrument like a drum set or trombone? I don’t get it. Drawing at least has something to gain by tackling the most difficult subjects. Games and instruments might as well just be past times.

Got to appreciate that American "when you encounter a new person, you only get five seconds to try to impart as much psychological trauma, disgust, morbidity and nihilism as possible, so make it count" attitude.
