Congratulations! That's fantastic.
I've not been to seminary myself (although maybe in a few years . . . . ), but I did major in Biblical languages as an undergrad, teach in a joint program with my local seminary and have a number of freinds who are seminary faculty. My recommendations based on that:
That alone will give you a big head start. I'd also encourage you to get started on the languages right away.
Some ideas - you could modify your schedule a bit and not make it as rigorous. I've found that the more rigorous the change you're trying to make, the more difficult it can be to keep up the effort.
For example, growing up, we read the Bible together as a family every weekday before heading to school / work but we only did this on weekday mornings. And our total reading time was maybe 5-10 minutes, so it was manageable. Weekends were "off" so to speak with church being the only shared faith pursuit.
Recommendation for a book if you're looking for more ideas and things you can incorporate into your personal life and walk - Disciplines of a Godly Man.
Also, here's a similar thread over at /r/ChristianMarriage which can get some ideas: https://www.reddit.com/r/Christianmarriage/comments/9oifia/what_spiritual_disciplines_are_a_part_of_your/
Not directly relating to marriage, but:
Disciplines of a Godly Man
If you become a better man (we all have room for improvement), then you'll be a better husband & this will impact your marriage.
The standard set in the book is very high/daunting, but it shows what is possible & what we should be aiming for.
Sacred Marriage
The main idea of this book is that marriage should make you holy, not happy.
We would all do well to remember that, because he's absolutely right, from my experience (not that I've become too holy!)
