- Your comments have inspired me to make this video on how to deal with Anki Burnout without losing your streak or your mind.
I've seen many comments from people telling me that I've inspired them to continue their studies, which is great! But the reality is that motivation is only temporary.
This video will go over ways I fight against burnout so you can keep pushing forward without stressing out!

Wish I saw this before I burnt out months ago which lead me to quit. Might start learning again
Don't regret what happened months ago, it's a learning experience to show that burnout is a remarkable foe!
.
The fact that you watched this video shows you still have the desire to keep going, so definately give it a second shot!
.
Remember that language learning is a long game, it doesn't matter if you learn 100 words today if you cant keep it up for the next 100 days.
.
Pace yourself and don't expect immediate results! Progress comes gradually!
I'm learning english with the comprehensible input aproach as I watch your channel growing
Nice! I'm actually working on becoming a iTalki teacher for English so if want an English lesson, hit me up!
Thanks for the content keep it up man! Excited to see your progress in your future
Thank you!
Inspiring af ^^
Glad I helped inspire you! Thanks for watching and commenting!
For me best strategy to review cards then I'm tired is to go for good + berry options for whole deck (no new cards).
This way you refresh every card in memory, but don't have to spend extra time on forgotten ones.
This is why I have such a issue with craming with Anki, when you get so many cards to review every day and if you miss one day you will just get overrun by cards.
You said it should just be a complement of immersion, but how do you do that if you have to spend so much time every single day just to keep your review down?
It just a real hazzle to use Anki overall too for me, so much to set up just to even get started.
For me I used do anki studying kanji and all that shabang until I got burned out really quickly and found out that for me anki and that way of studying wasn’t for me it wasn’t fun it just made me feel like I was studying something for an exam and I hated it so I just decided to go full fun mode I immersed myself in like shows and video games which for me made it waaaaay less likely to get burned out
I wanna preface my response by saying that I'm not trying to invalidate what you're feeling, I'm just saying that you may not be seeing the full picture. (And I also have a really blunt way of saying what I think, so I really hope this doesn't offend you as that's not my intention.)
.
From what it sounds like, you (just like 99% of people including myself) didn't know what you signed up for when you started learning Japanese. You had no idea that you had to commit just a tiny bit of every day into studies and that you'd be in this for the long run.
.
The difference is that you lack the commitment to actually follow through with it. It has little to do with with how "fun" it is or how much it "feels like an exam"- it has all to do with the fact that you actively made the decision to "hate it" instead of finding out what you're doing wrong with it that lead to the burnout.
.
The thing even with your new approach of "going full fun mode" is that you are not basing your approach to learning on consistency and commitment- you are basing it off of emotion and motivation. When motivation runs dry, there's nothing left keeping you on track.
.
The thing Anki teaches the most is not the words or grammar or kanji, it is the mentality of being able to stay on track and keep yourself accountable- and it's a very easy way to filter off who's really going to get anywhere in Japanese and who isn't.
.
To rephrase what you are saying to put it into perspective for you:
You could realistically learn 1 word a day on Anki every day, and your total time for review + learning new word would probably not exceed 10 minutes a day. You would be learning 30-31 words a month at 365 words a year. Each review brings with it a "comprehensible input" sentence + potentially new kanji that can be reapplied for newer words.
.
You're telling me that spending 10 minutes a day to learn 365 words in a year is something that you "hate".
.
Again, I don't think it's the process. I think it's:
1. Your opinion of the process based on false assumptions
2. You not using the process properly
3. A lack of commitment after realizing what you signed up for
.
We all aim for the treasure at the end of the road, most just give up once they realize they gotta actually work to get to the treasure.
.
What choice will you make?
@@JouzuJuls Well said.
Hey Juls, I discovered your channel quite recently. I have learned Japanese years ago, but I'm starting to study more seriously because I need to get the MEXT scholarship. Do you think I should use a JLPT deck instead of the ones you recommended to learn? I downloaded one that is called "JLPT-N5-N1 Japanese Vocabulary". Do you know about it? What do you think? Thank you for your help, I hope to be able to learn really fast because of your advice.
Make sure your deck is how you like it because some of the downloadable ones are atricious. Some of the definitions are so nebulous that they give you zero idea how to use the word lmao. Impossible to remember something like that.
100%. I have never seen anybody use the word "Nebulous" to describe anything in my life but I am going to start using that to describe truly horrible online decks now 😂
When learning the kanji, should i be focused learning the meaning only or also the reading. Ive been doing both but i struggle a lot learning the reading. I am thinking about just letting the reading come from sentence mining and immersion alone but idk if that will slow me down
Hey, thanks for commenting!
.
Do not learn the "meaning" and readings of individual kanji out of context. That's a waste of time and brain power.
.
Not exactly what you mean by "meaning". If you mean the keyword that RTK assigns- that's NOT a meaning. That's just a keyword. Sometimes the keyword IS the meaning, but sometimes it's not.
.
Assigning a 1 or 2 keywords to a kanji out of context is ok because you can create a mnemonic to fill the gaps. But I wouldn't try to learn the REAL meaning behind each kanji (especially when 1 kanji can mean many things).
.
When learning readings, learn them as you see them actually used.
.
So if learning 新 for example, it's way less efficient to remember that as "しん ・ あたら" than it is to remember "新鮮[しんせん] ・新しい".
.
Having sentences is not 100% necessary. Sometimes it's helpful, sometimes I can do more useful things with my time. Depends on the word and your memory.
Do you find words for cards your going to learn for just that day? Is that how mining works? Or can you just collect a ton and have them waiting to be learned?
Hey there, sorry for the late reply, I've been busy studying for the JLPT but now I'm free!
.
To answer your question, It can be either!
.
When I was studying for the JLPT, I'd read pretty difficult passages and frequently come across words I didn't know but NEED to know for the JLPT, and so within 1 hour I'd probably add like 100 new words. In those cases I'd probably distribute the 100 words throughout a few days to learn them.
.
On the flip side, when I'm gaming or something and I find a single word I don't know that's on the main menu for example, I can simply stop to add that to Anki and just review that single new card immediately.
Please, Where can you get those pitch Accent for each word ??

Hey so... i did a standard 20 card review. Do i just go through it one time and that's it or do i keep doing it multiple times per day?
That's it. The cards will accumulate over time so your first week or so will be pretty relaxing. But it gets real after about the first week or two.
.
If you get a day with a lot of cards, splitting up the sessions throughout the day is a valid option. But you only need to do that if you can't do everything in 1 short session.
@@JouzuJuls thank you.
Done do done lo 😄✅
where is the "video up here" ? :D
It's on the i-card right where I pointed at!

Perhaps I'm the only individual on the planet with this issue but Anki didn't make any sense to me. Like... None. I downloaded the Android version, even paid for the monthly pro version, figured out how to download a set of hiragana cards then I opened it and was instantly stuck. I couldn't for the life of me figure out what I was to do with the thing. I tapped the first hiragana and it popped up A, then I was stuck. There is no explanation anywhere on how to use that program. Or how it's designed to be used. I understand the concept of cards, but I couldn't swipe up to the next card or tap to the next one or anything. It was dead. I know Anki is very popular, so the problem isn't with the program but in my understanding of it. Every other program out there had a way to move onto the next item being learned. Also, I tried in vain to find a list of words to download that were all in hiragana as I am just starting out and haven't gotten the katana down yet and Kanji is pretty distant at this point but I couldn't find any decks of pure hiragana words, not that it matters now as I uninstalled the app. 🤔
Uhhh, sorry to break it to you, but you got scammed my guy.
.
There is no such thing as "Anki Pro" and Anki is entirely free. Whatever you paid for is NOT the Anki that is being talked about in this video, nor the Anki that is commonly used.
.
Also don't use Anki for Hiragana and Katakana. You can learn both of those alphabets in like 2-3 days with this method: ua-cam.com/video/c7N58Xrl7Jk/v-deo.html
Also just wanted to add that Anki is best used on a computer. AnkiDroid is basically only used for reviews and minor edits.
