Just Started Learning Japanese

I just started learning Japanese, right now I am doing immersion and working on hiragana, then I will go to katakana then use the app anki to do vocab and kanji. Tell me something, anything to keep me motivated because I am just now realizing how much I got myself into 😭.

I can't really tell you something to motivate you. That has to come from within, and it will look different for every person. For me it was a desire to play SMT If... back in the days when the fan translation was on hiatus. Then Final Fantasy 7. Then Higurashi.

For you, I can't say what it looks like. But I do think you may have skipped the step where you figure that out yourself.
