Okay, I'll cut straight to the chase... I'm aware that analysing your previous hand/sessions is very important to spot leaks/mistakes and to enable improvement. I'll put my hands up and say I'm committed to analysing my hands, but due to the complicated structure of pokerstars hand history, I have to re-edit it all in my own words (which takes forever, like literally over 20 minutes per hand). Is there a quicker way that can save me time with my hand analysis? I usually try to read every hand regardless of whether I'm involved or not, but its extremely time consuming and overwhelming to read the complicated structure. So my main question is, what key elements do I need to study with my previous hands and sessions? Ideally, I'd like to find an alternative which is less complicated and most importantly, less time consuming. Thanks for reading.
P.S As I said, I'm aware that its a very important process of growing as a player and its part of my daily routine, but I'm struggling to do it everyday and usually end up leaving it out and its really depressing me. I hope you guys can provide me a solution. thanks

Ill second that. What happened to the days you could just copy paste? Is there a solution or a program that can make this easier?

If you're really serious about this a tracker will save you really much time.
Not only will you be able to replay hands, it also provides you very useful stats.

If the investment in a tracker is to much for you, there's also some free replayers available.
I once used one, but forgot the name.

But a tracker provides you much more info, so I'd strongly recommend that.

thanks for the advice people. I've taken your comments on board and agree that investing in a poker tracker/HUD software is the solution to the problem.

yes, I bought myself pokertracker for for christmas. The main reason I bought it was for analyzing my own hands and stats.

I didn't really want the HUD aspect too much...but NOW that I have it I love using it so much! I almost feel like my hands are tied behind my back on Bovada now where I have to keep track of that all by myself.
