[Help Thread] My biggest problem is motivation. Any advice?

[Skewbed]

I want to get better at 3x3, but I haven't really learned any algs or anything in about three months. I feel like I could easily memorize them, and get them into muscle memory. I am going to Armin Open 2017 in a few days, but I can't seem to get myself to learn algs or practice.

I'm pretty open to ideas if you have any.

Here is some extra info:
PB: 12.81
Method: CFOP, 3.5LLL
Cube: Barely touched GTS
Memory: Enough to memorize 140 digits of Pi in 5 hours spread out over 1.5 weeks

P.S.
This is my first post.

It's only a hobby. If you're not motivated, don't do it. Spend your time on something else instead.

What he said.
If you aren't iinterrsted enough to practice then don't bother as you will get nothing from it.

Well I'm interested in cubing as a hobby and community but rarely learn new algs. Cubing can stay interesting if you explore otehr aspects of it!

I was a casual cuber for the better part of a decade before I ever caught on to alg-learnin' and speedsolvin'. I just had fun being able to solve the cube fairly quickly at all. There's nothing wrong with that. If you just like to solve, then solve.

Someday, maybe you'll feel a strong enough desire to improve your technique. And you'll know what you need to do. And knowing is half the battle. (that was for you @Kit Clement)

Carry a cube around with you everywhere you go. Solve slowly without timing yourself. Don't worry about learning new algs with a comp only a few days away.
