Improve mental endurance/ fast fatigue

[Chosendeer]

Hi

I recently started to study Gamedesign and teach me to code in my free time. I expirience alot of mental fatigue and low endurance(~20/30min) during my periods of learning those things (especially when coding).

Prior to this i had about 3/4 years out of collegue where I did mostly physical work, drugs, games and parties. So i realize that sure alot of it comes down to repetition and retrain my ability to learn and absorb information.

What would your tips be how i can retrain myself to be more focused.

Things i can think off is good Nutrition, Excercise, Cut down on high Stimulations, get a good sleeeping Scedule, have a working scedule and follow a Routine

It might be that your mind is more dynamic and that you should try to work with it instead of against it.

This video changed my life. It made me realize that there are multiple roads to success and that one should choose an approach based on one's personality and personal strengths.. not based on how it is expected. 

Also, if you're learning something new and you're not super gifted in it, you may experience it to be more taxing and may not be able to do it for such a long time in the beginning.

I for example couldn't study math for more than 30 min at a time in the beginning, but as I learned more I could practice longer periods becuase it becomes more effortless and you get in the flow.

Lastly.. Meditation. It helps a lot.
