It seems that everyone learning Kanji right now is moving at a pace much higher than mine. I'm not gonna up the amount of new cards per day but it was kind of an eye opener. I may move up to 25 cards a day. I originally started at 25 cards but went to 20 when I couldn't finish within a 20 minute time box. I found today That I wanted to do more new cards. As I went through my deck I expected to get new cards even though the deck told me I had no new cards. Starting Tomorrow ( Wait no right NOW!!. brb ....) Okay starting today I did 25 cards. This Ups my cards to 25 during the week and 50 on weekends (tentative). Minimum of 225 per week Max of 250.
I leave my time box at 20 minutes. Even though I take longer to finish up all the reviews and new Kanji than 20 minutes. The reason is it tricks me into thinking I want to do a lot more Kanji then I would if it was one long list. Also I take a quick minute break to go grab some water or use the otearai お手洗い. O hand wash i. ( restroom if you didn't know )
The koohii forum is great motivation to get out there and finish these Kanji up. If they can do it so can I !!!
Has anyone noticed katzu updates AJATT every 3 days religiously. And from reading his post I think he has successfully timeboxed his entire life. Don't go too crazy with it but it helps get things done. I work well under pressure.
