You posted this 6 days ago, still playing nothing but speed chess, and you cant figure out why youre not improving.
Buy a good CD/ DVD.e.g Chessmaster Grandmaster edition
1. Replay hundreds/ thousand of famous games ( easy to load from CD)
2. There are 500 opening by ECO( Replay about 10 everyday, 5 min per game)
3. Get a pet openings( e.g 1 for white 4 for black).and replay more games from that opening
4.Do tactics
5. Get endgame lessons
6. 10 mins is completely fine .( Top payers and professionals even play 1 min or 3 mins).
7. Play against computers when you find interesting positions in replay.

Exactly...they are top professionals. Not beginners trying to learn the game.
Maybe chess just isn't your game and you should play something else instead?
you are probably right.
