There are several things that help me always.
- Always do your reviews first. If you feel then that was enough take a break before doing any lessons
- Have a look at your “Expected Daily Reviews” to get a feeling how many you can handle and what is to much.
- If you feel it’s to much, do a couple days just reviews to get your Items to a higher level and as such less per day.
- I also learn only around 10-15 new Items a day, so that my reviews don’t just up to quickly. Don’t worry about not getting all lessons to zero in one day, especially when just jumping up a level or you just Guru’d a bunch of Radicals.
- Lastly, learning Japanese and especially Kanji is not about who can do it the fastest, but finding your own pace. If you rush to much but it doesn’t stick, you get frustrated to fast and just feel like quitting. So take it slow at the pace that you still feel challenged but not to fast just to be fast
- Just have fun and learning will be easier
