Hello
When I was still at school flashcards worked very well for me but as I got into self studying at home it always felt like a waste of time. It got more and more tiring, even though I felt some improvement, and at some point I couldn't force myself to review them anymore. So..I "dropped" it ^^
One thing I'm currently struggling with is Glossika. I kind of like it but I kind of don't, I don't know. I'm still trying and hoping that I'll find a better way of using it but when something doesn't feel helpful then I can't concentrate and I'm afraid I'll have to drop that, too.
I think it's fine to drop methods you don't like. If you get bored then you will lose focus and you won't be able to concentrate. The results will vanish and you end up wasting your time. I believe that you can find other methods or maybe just change a few details to get results and to have "fun" - or at least to get out of that boredom.
Easier said than done ^^ I don't really know why but I'm always uncomfortable with dropping something. I'm always hoping that it will get better or I don't know... it just feels like wasting my resources (even though I'm really just wasting time with it...sigh)
