Anatomy is all about structure, and it will make more sense if you can see it. Also, don't try to be a perfectionist or you might get behind. Learn it well, yes, but try to see the big picture of how the structures work together and you will be well off.

The way we learned in massage school was drawing bones/muscles on each other. It helped A LOT to be able to see the bone and muscle and where they attach to. Also theres a really cool Anatomy coloring book that is helpful when beginning to learn bones and muscles.
