The critical age for learning a language is 7 tops.

I started adding some sentences in toki pona, because there aren't many sentences in that language, and I thought that practicing translating simple sentences would help me improve.
Xavier Richardson
You can learn a language well past 7 years of age. You just won't sound like a native.

>You just won't sound like a native. Why so categorical? Luca Lampriello can speak Russian with little to no accent, and he began learning it at the age of 24.
Christopher Parker
i think my problem with what those above me just said is that a lot of people say that as an excuse to never ever even try to learn a language towards c1 to c2. there are several people on youtube that sound like natives after training with voice and sound but they busted their asses off.

How to discipline?
I have plenty of motivation, and I'm very efficient at studying shit in general when I actually convince myself to sit down and do it, and I think I have a good understanding of many different linguistic aspects, but for the fucking life of me I CANNOT get myself to just sit down and do the work. I end up just watching anime and posting on Sup Forums, it's killing me.
At this point it seems like the only things I'm able to actually study/practice/work for are those for which I'm "forced", i.e. work and uni.

A random note, but I find it helps if I try to force myself to think/mentally narrate stuff in the language I'm learning. Say I'm walking down a road >chiaban-e "streetname" injast, chiaban-e "streetname" unjast. >An zan wears a sorh vest Just because I don't know everything/much, I still try, and it also forces you to realize words you don't know (mental note: look up wordt for "to wear" and "vest")

It's possible, but most people don't reach that point. That doesn't mean you shouldn't try though.

Get some kind of blocker and blacklist Sup Forums, the harder it is to access Sup Forums, more chances you will have to stop and getting back to work. Try a similar approach to anime Plan and schedule, as said, and follow your schedule the strictest possible. Try techniques like pomodoro, among others. Maybe you should read the book A Mind for Numbers, or at least see some videos and read something on the internet about it.. Remember, discipline is a habit, you'll to do it everyday, but as it becomes a habit, it will be easier to keep it.
