so i'm trying to really get into drawing. i've made a habit of doing sketches every day.

i'm using a ballpoint pen or a pencil and i do a lot of scribbling until i get a line the way i want. is that a bad habit? i've read somewhere that you'll become more confident and really understand drawing better if you use a fineliner instead of redoing lines over and over in sketches.

i've tried using a fineliner for a bit but honestly everything i have been drawing ever since is garbage.

what do you guys think? is the switch worth it?

You could've easily figured this one yourself.
Pencil trains you to control your values and to use more construction, fineliner trains you to have solid and confident lines without too much pressure.
You need both, switch them occasionally (+- every two months) to get the best result. You'll feel a great improvement in your line quality after using fineliner for some time.
