Bobby Fischer learned enough 'Russian' so that he could read Russian chess books. Are you that commented?
How do I study like Fischer?

Yes. Events in the interior of the warp bubble cannot influence its surface. So it can't be turned off once it's on.

Auto-correct strikes again! "Committed".

Hmmm, interesting.
Just study when you like 😅

Research which books he used and use them as intensely as he did. Research and learn some Russian and Serbian and subscribe to publications or copy publications of games played around the world. This is easier today. Join a chess club and almost live there. Drop out of school at 16 and spend all your waking hours studying the board. Seek out the best players and play against them. Carry a pocket set with you and use it often. Learn thousands of games - memorize them - so you recreate key positions and patterns from each. Do your own analysis ... learn from your losses - they have more to teach you than your victories - they are the friends who try to tell you what you are doing wrong
Give this woman a trophy!

That was Fischer's technique.
Funny, but not true.
Actually, he didn’t start by going insane, though he did devote his life entirely to 64 squares from a very young age. Perhaps mistakenly, his mother even encouraged it. Fischer had a notebook and a portable chess set with him at all times. He would play and play and play, and take notes. When there was no one left to play against, he’d play against himself.
He didn’t actually go off the rails until it was time to defend his title against Karpov. He had 100 demands, 99 were met. His excuse was that one last demand. Therefor it is at this point in his life where we see a person beginning to express mental instability. Although Fischer was never diagnosed as being insane.
Fischer's mental issues became obvious as early as Bled 1958 (he was 15 at that time). Tal described him as "cuckoo". Four years later (1962), his team-mate Robert Byrne tried to talk him into seeing a psychiatrist. Fischer refused. The same year, GM Pal Benko tried to convince him that he was becoming paranoid ("You people don't realize how badly the Russians would like to get me out of the way") but Fischer just maintained that even paranoids have real enemies.
Even as a child there were disturbing trends. He was expelled from school after assaulting the principal. His mother took him to three different mental health specialists.
But why take my word for it? GM Reuben Fine was a professional psychiatrist, and he knew Fischer well. Why don't you read some of the things Fine wrote about Fischer?
I think your views on Fischer only going off the rails in 1975 are badly misinformed.
If I remember correctly, around 1962, there was an interview that might be of interest for this sort of discussion.
Find Muscular_Birdy he will tell you
"To become a grandmaster is very difficult and can take quite a long time! ... you need to ... solve many exercises, analyse your games, study classic games, modern games, have an opening repertoire and so on. Basically, it is hard work ... It takes a lot more than just reading books to become a grandmaster I am afraid." - GM Artur Yusupov (2013)

Yeah, it's not studying like Fischer.
