Should i quit cubing?

Hey guys,

my mind is really going round and round because i've been thinking whether to quit cubing or not. I've been cubing for nearly 2 years. My times are like sub-20 for 3x3, sub 5-6 for 2x2. I have been cubing nearly for the whole day, everyday. When it comes to doing homework, i would say 'i'll do some cubing first, then homework'. But when it comes to this, i end up staying till mid-night trying to finish my homework.

Should i quit cubing, or just spend less time with it... and please suggest a time, on how long i should spend on cubing?

Thank you for your help!

Take a break for 2 weeks. Specifically don't cube, stick them all in a bag and put them somewhere else in your house. Don't come on the forums. Don't visit any cubing related site.

See what your everyday life would be like, just for two weeks, without any cubing. If you do your homework, get a lot of reading done, do better at school, then maybe it's time to tone it down a bit. If you see your friends more, socialise, are active, then the same.

If you just do some other boring procrastination activity, then you may as well keep cubing.

I'd suggest cubing less.

If you can't manage that, take a break but don't quit.

take the easy way out. Get a dog feed it your homework bring in the shreds and show it to your teacher.

You can do 1 of those 2 things:
1. Do homework first then cube
2. Cube first but set a timer to a tyime you think it will be good to start homework and continue cubing only after you completed the homework

or he could just quit cubing.

Or he could send me all of his cubes in the mail and he can start over fresh.

Just manage you time.
