I really want to get better at photography and I love taking photos and learning more

but I'm just way too fucking lazy and can't be bothered. Photography is hard work and takes a lot of time and effort and repetition to get good at

Any tips for staying disciplined or otherwise regularly taking pics and doing shit?

Stick a prime lens on if you have one, or refrain from zooming(pick a focal length). Go for a walk every day with your camera. No matter where you live, just go out a few kilometres. Don't spam the shutter, try frame things right and take one or two photos. Try different angles decide for yourself if they look good.

Every day change your route and the focal length.

That's what I did. It helps to get a start.

Just do it.

There's no magic trick, you just have to do it.

OP youll pnly git gud if you stick to shit for some time. changing focal lenghts daily amounts to shite. stick with one focal lenght at least for a week.
