You can't learn everything at once. There's already more in the sticky than you really need to start off. Just start practicing.

Focus on learning perspective. Practice drawing things in perspective from imagination as well as from life. Practice tracing over photos to find the perspective lines, and construct the object in the scene out of simple shapes. Practice constructing things from imagination and from life out of simple 3D shapes. Spheres, Cubes, Cones. Most people ignore perspective and do not start thinking in 3D until years later. They do this because learning perspective isn't fun, and thinking in 3D is hard. They want immediate gratification. It is then a huge headache to correct this because they are used to getting semi-decent results by just winging it and thinking in 2D/contour. But ultimately this habit must be broken. Always think about what you are doing when you are practicing. Have goals in mind.

Post your work. If studying like this works you must be really good by now.

Couldn't agree more OP.

Cancelled my schoolism membership, sold my tablet, and threw away all of my sketchbooks.

Such a waste of time. And for what? It's completely unnecessary and serves no purpose.
Art is not needed, especially in today's society where the intellect, personality, and face reigns supreme.

To be honest, the "artistic lifestyle" seems almost like a childish endeavour at this point, and I don't mean any disrespect, but it seems like the most serious artists (asides from guys who are legit conceptartists/illustrators/porn artists but they represent a very low % of dedicated lifters) are also the people with nothing else going on in their lives.
I know this was true with me, I was biggest and most serious about drawing when I was still in uni, working only 15 hours a week, and pretty much just plucking around all the time, going out, with no real life.
To all you kids out there who are getting sucked into the comerical art , try to stop yourself.
So long as you have and maintain decent facial aesthetics, you'll be fine.
Art just not worth it.

Cheers.
