The Law of Diminishing Returns
You've done warmups.
You've been drawing for an hour and feel like each line gets better and better. Your problem solving is feeling strong: you're happy with choices.
Then suddenly... everything starts to feel off. Lines aren't as accurate, thinking is slower.
You notice you are tired and think maybe you should stop.
But you don't.
You keep going.
That drawing starts to fall apart.
You get frustrated and trash the whole thing.
You get mad at yourself and don't draw for a few days, saying you're not inspired.
When you start to feel that fall-off in energy and focus, when you start to doubt your previously unassailable growth, it's time to step away. Go have a snack, a drink of water, or go do something else.
At this point, your unlimited mental data plan is has reached the data cap for 5G speeds and you've been throttled to worse than 3G. Packets get dropped. Latency increases. There is nothing to do but do something else and let your brain recover.
At best, even the most incredibly productive people can do maximum output for 4 hours a day. After that, we retain less, are less productive, and we make more mistakes. So we shouldn't expect to be able to study, draw, paint, exercise effectively, without rest.
Rest is a requirement, not a reward. So take breaks, stay committed, but don't burn yourself out trying to fulfill your dreams, you'll just end up resenting the sleeping.
