0 time 0 progress

So as of recently, being my second semester junior year and having a bunch of extracurricular activities, I have had almost 0 free time. If I'm not working on homework, then I am doing a sport. If I am not doing a sport, I am sleeping (at ruffly 2 am if I might add). I don't want this to be viewed as a pity party, so I'll cut to the chase. I have had no time to work on guitar and have almost lost a passion to learn it. This is due to the fact that it seems more of a chore now than something I can kinda just pick up and have fun with.

Its not just a matter of time, its also a matter of energy. By the end of the day I am exhausted and can hardly find the energy to finish my homework. Because of this lack of energy, I have to put off practicing the guitar and end up falling far, far behind schedule. I honestly can't make any commitment to a plan until the work load dies down a little bit.

From this experience, I learned that I need to manage my time better as well as manage my work load. I also learned that I am very slow to recover from setbacks and need to work on that as well. Moving forward, I plan on at the very least, practicing for 5 min a day, regardless of when or where it is.
