When you were coming out with these articles I never really cared since I’ve never used timeboxing, but in the situation I’m currently in, I’m finding I really need to try it in my life. So far so good, bit hard to grasp at first, but I’m looking forward to reading the future articles (which I’m about to) to in essence make Japanese, and my life easier. 😉

I’ve been using 2 minute SRS reps for ages now, but I got bored of them at one point, completely forgot about it, and just ignored it whenever the time limit finished. I think the main problem I have with timeboxing is that when I’m doing SRS reps, I’ll find a word in a definition, or in the Japanese recording I’ve got going on in the background, and then I’ll look up the word, add it, find another word in the definition, find a new kanji etc, etc, and end up very off track.

This article has inspired me to try timeboxing again, for Japanese and schoolwork. I certainly know how hard it is to stay focused on a planned hour of homework.

Ahh, so is it like this? You come up with something you want to study over an hour, then divide up what it is into manageable chunks?
