Yeah, just don't let drawing become a chore. Draw anime and cartoons all you like for fun, just as serious practice, realism will offer you the skills you need to eventually reach pro abilities.

It's a long process, though. I have been drawing all my life, and I would not say my drawing abilities were even decent until late into my time at art school. It took me longer than that to develope decent colouring skills. I'm 26 now, 4+ years out of art school, and I still think I have a long ways to go before I'm even near the talent of many professionals I admire.
