Recognise the schemes and write
When I created my account on Lang Correct, I naturally put English and German as target languages because these are the two I need to be fluent in. I needed to learn German from scratch because I live in Germany and, by the way, I enjoy it. It is for example always a pleasure to take a time to write and post my texts and discovering new words make me feel like a child who finds candies on a treasure hunt. The same doesn't go for English unfortunately. I consider myself as a good intermediate learner, even if I didn't pass any exams to confirm it. But I am deeply sorry, deer correctors, to confess that in conntrary as for German I do not have any comparable feelings for the English language, hence not the least motivation to write texts, to learn or even read a book. As a result: I keep being able to communicate fluently, however I feel that my sentences don't all sound natural and ask me a lot of efforts to build.
So what makes me write in English today? Exactly that: I had to write an e-mail and it was bad. I am starting to think that even if I almost don't need it currently, I might miss opportunities in the future if I sound basic because I cannot express complex ideas with colleagues and potential recruiters. On the other hand, I know I will soon tend to go back on my beloved German. So my scheme is: I work my English only when I am pissed at myseff after having to recognise my inabilities. Good to know.
I write German when I have both time to and an inspiration for the topic and the style I want to create. It takes me a lot of efforts but I'm always very proud at myself when I finally post it. My scheme goes like that: I follow my guts, enjoy my natural inclination for German, block the time needed. When I have to study it seriously with a book, I tend to procrastinate (is this verb as common as in French?) in the form of starting to learn some Polish. Polish is a language that I don't need to learn outside of being able to politely greet people in shops or restaurants. Guess what language would benefit me the more in Poland: English! So my scheme is: If by lazyness I don't want to study seriously German, I switch to something not easier but not so useful.
I recognized my schemes, now the question is what to do of this knowledge. I could always have English material under hand so I can blame myself and return to English instead of Polish every time I am too lazy for German. Or I could keep following my instinct and stay chaotic ,and certainly inefficient, about it.

Thank you for the correction. I should write more often!
> " block the time" → I meant take a moment to write in German and ignore all other tasks or solicitations.
> I was trying to say that when I am too lazy to learn German, but still want to study a language, I should have everything ready to study English instead of Polish. Like having a book, a writing challenge entry...
Thank you for your support.
