For those just getting started on your "becoming her" journey, here's some tips to start...(also for those who's seasonal depression has popped in for a visit)

Start with s shower and put on some real clothes. (no need to explain yourself in your head, just do it)

Eat a meal you actually enjoy (doesn't have to be the healthiest, baby steps)

Find a book you enjoy (audible is a good app to start with if you don't enjoy physical books, also it doesn't need to be self help, just something you enjoy)

Light some candles, and throw on some music you enjoy. (I like Sade or Alina Baraz stations on Pandora).

Clean a corner in your space that has been bothering you for awhile. (Remember baby steps)

Do a brain dump in a notebook or start journaling minimal five minutes a day.

Get some fresh air everyday. (If you work from home, go outside for ten minutes in the morning and during your break)

Don't sit on your phone all day (especially when you first wake up)

Delete anyone on social media who brings your mood down or makes you feel bad about yourself.

Find shows, YouTube videos, and influencers that align with what you're trying to become. (please keep in mind influencers will not always show you the bad, their jobs are to show all the highlights of their life. But it helps that the content is inspirational and a reflection of where your trying to go in life)

Dig deep into your religion and or spirituality. (This will help guide you, remember religion and spirituality is for you and your guidance. It doesn't mean beat others in the head with it)

HYDRATE!! (I feel like I can't stress this enough, try to drink 2-4 bottles daily to start)

How to Really Comprehend a Scientific Paper

**credit to my research advisor, she’s an amazing mentor and I aspire to be just like her someday :)

Read the abstract. Write down what the paper says it is going to be about.

Read the introduction. Write down what the paper says it is looking to accomplish and how.

Read the conclusion. Write down what the paper actually did accomplish.

Go through and find all the pictures, graphs, or diagrams. Write notes explaining these images to yourself.

Read the whole paper start to finish. Write a summary of the paper as though you are explaining it to a layperson, and then another summary as though you are explaining it to a colleague.

Throughout all of the above steps:

If there are words you don’t know google them and write down the definitions

If the paper defines a formula, law, variable, etc in a certain way write that down

If there are references to or recommendations of other literature write those down. After the last step if there’s anything you’re uncertain about or would like more information on look to that list for further reading

Doing your best doesn’t mean burning yourself out.

Doing your best varies day to day, and even hour to hour.

Doing your best one day, is different to your best another day.

Doing your best one day, may include doing all of your chores and work.

Doing your best another day, may include just showering.

Doing your best another day, may be just waking up.

Doing your best varies, especially if you are disabled and/or mentally ill. 

Please be kind to yourself….

Sunday ▪︎ 08/11/2020

Had a go at a few physics projectile motion questions because I have an assessment on Thursday, how fun. Then gave up and did a bit of English, working on George Orwell's 1984 - lovely happy book absolutely loving it. Haven't started my Ext English text but oh well. But all round not too bad for a Sunday.
