Not really someone whose completed the drawabox lessons past 1 nor do I consider myself are particularly good artist yet, but theres a level you get to when you faithfully stick to the methods you are taught where they become second nature and drawing becomes more natural and fun as a result. I can't say whether this applies with the drawabox way of learning to draw, I'm just assuming this as that's where I have gotten with the methods that were taught to me in my college after a long period of practice. Have faith in yourself and apply what you've learned in your 50 % drawings, supplement your drawings other learning methods along side it or test out different mediums. Most importantly make sure you are drawing things that interest or inspire you ( I drew mechs after lesson 1 since I was watching alot of gundam and the perspective stuff lent itself naturally to robots and vehicles)
One last thing, I've been terrible at drawing for most of my life, I found it fun sometimes but most of the times when I was learning it was a boring slog and it was almost always easier to play video games or watch movies. I've been to the point where similar to you I found drawing not fun, regardless I pushed through learning basics regardless. Its only recently that I'm filled with a constant motivation to draw and create, and its partially due to the confidence I get from having practiced my fundamentals( I'm no where near good or pro btw I'm just more confident in what I need to do to make a better looking drawing). Drawing is like working out it's not easy but its fulfilling.
