Road to being an artist

There's a lot of information you need to learn.
More importantly, because there is a lot of information, it's important to remember it all.
Pretty basic to say.

The amount of discipline to keep a working schedule is immense. More so that I do not have school to keep nagging me on working. Self discipline and a strict regime is key to becoming successful here.

My social life is kaput basically. My life is revolving around drawing and my partner at the moment.
I want this pretty bad. Its all hard work and all the hard work will eventually pay off.
A lot of the times its very difficult to keep concentration and perseverance. The main reason is the repetition of it all. You get a lot of confidence and that confidence is a double edged sword. You start to think you have your technique to a T, but in reality, more work is needed.

Don't practice until you get it right. Practice until you can't get it wrong.

Cut all distractions. Have fun when you need to have fun. Otherwise, 0 distractions.

I currently have a lot of goals in my mind.
