To the pros who manage an insane level of productivity, day in and day out -

How do you do it?

I guess expecting myself to ahve that when Im just some amateur who is living as a 23 year old boomerang kid that still plays video games and shitposts is just unheard of, especially with the literal no-discipline and no-backbone that I have.

Do I just need to grow up first?

Can't really speak for everyone, but I have a few more years than 23, and my take on the growing up thing is that it's bullshit. You don't really grow up any more than you make yourself. It's as simple as, and as fucking hard as: If you want to be different, then be different.

Want to have an insane level of productivity day in and day out? Then schedule your day. Shower, keep your place clean, exercise, take regular breaks in your drawing time, and limit the vidya and other stuff to when you have your drawing done.

Discipline can take time to build, but you have to start somewhere. YOU have to start somewhere.

You either have to enjoy doing it or have a big desire of creating something.

I usually just listen to podcasts and alike when grinding. try to find a way that makes drawing not a chore and then read some books on gitting gud. That's what I do. The disadvantage is that if one of those elements is out of place you would feel like not doing it (this week I didn't have any internetz left so I couldn't listen to podcasts and thus wasn't motivated to do jack).

tl;dr: Find a way of making it comfortable then draw

1. Make a work space not in your room if you can
2. Schedule out your day (even your poop breaks)
3. No more consuming, just produce. Game designers etc dont sit down and play videogames for 2 hours+ a day. Maybe 10 min. A week
