I’m so sorry for late thread - been a bit overwhelmed last week. But worry not! The vocabulary must grow.

    Really awesome progress. That looks like a really strong routine, if you mostly stick to it I bet you’ll keep improving fast. How are you spacing your pomodoro sprints out through the day?

    Planning out study schedules in a similar way is very motivating for me, but then I find myself slipping up and falling off that bus before long. Hopefully I can muster the discipline to go back in that direction sometime.

    N2 is a huge milestone, best of luck preparing for and taking the test!

      Thanks!

      I’m working on starting a new career, so I’m chaining my work productivity sprints with the first two language learning sprints especially. Had some major setbacks, so my career motivation has been in the toilet. I’ll typically do either the third sprint or minor tasks (responding to emails, office/home cleaning) before lunch and get back to it after the break.

      I don’t know why, but something really clicked for me with Japanese in December, and it’s been enough to prop up the other stuff. Even though it was less structured last year, over the past couple months with solid structure I really feel like I’ve actually learned how to work at home. It’s been different!
