I-Is this what improving is? Is taking breaks necessary for improving?

The eyes always improve faster than the hands. Thats where frustration comes from, work through it.

That's me working on a caffeine high. I get into a strong flow state and the hours go by, everything looks as the best work I've ever done
>wake up next day
it's okay but not nearly as good as I thought it was, sigh of relief that I didn't upload it to social media

Yes anon, taking breaks is necessary. You need to let your brain go through what is called, "incubation" where it's subconsciously processing the knowledge you've gained.
This advice goes in basically any field where you make a thing, be it writing an essay/paper/book or drawing a piece of art. You know where they say "put it in a drawer, don't look at it for a few days, then look at it with fresh eyes"?
It's important. It's sort of like flipping your canvas, you get used to looking at what you're doing and glaze over mistakes. I'd one day rather than a few days is fine if you're in a hurry/it's not that important, just enough to sleep on it and take a fresh look.

Are you bitching about the
>I'd one day rather than a few days
I missed a word, "I'd say one day rather than a few days."
Not really worth bitching about imo but whatever helps you feel smug bro
>>2808546
I like feeling smug, it's great

So I'm not the only one.
I always wait a day for my brain the "catch up" before uploading anything.
