NO BS TIME : YOUR ONE STOP GUIDE TO LOCK IN.
academically:
put down that damn phone. baby, I don’t know what else to tell you. Don’t watch TikTok, YouTube or anything when doing work or studying. Put it down, if you can’t? Delete the apps. Make sure you only use it in web browser, so you have to actively search for it. It’s far, far too easy to start doomscrolling. GIRL, PUT IT DOWN!!!
actually study. Don’t copy notes from one paper to another, READ THE NOTES ALOUD, FORCE YOURSELF TO REGURGITATE IT ON A WHITEBOARD. Do not waste your goddamn time going through a topic you ALREADY know. go through topics you don’t know, have no fucking clue about and search!! Watch tutorials, read your textbook, ASK!
ask for help. I get it. It’s embarrassing as hell to admit you don’t know wth is going on, too bad, you do! Ask for fucking help, ask for someone to explain it. Don’t lie and say you do after one explanation, ask them to rephrase, repeat, until you get it. Don’t fucking quit.
find what works. i like the pomodoro method & active recall, maybe you like flash cards. Make the flash cards, stop getting influenced into following techniques that aren’t serving you. get it babe. try it out and get it.
put in the time. no more “I’ll do it when i feel like it” DO IT NOW. Don’t say “in ten minutes” say “after 1 video” “after i wash the dishes” don’t give yourself a chance to procrastinate.
beauty (face & hair):
good hygiene. shower daily, wash your hair depending on your hair type, BLOW DRY YOUR HAIR DONT LET IT DRIP, invest in deodorant YOU like, brush your teeth twice a day (istg girl you HAVE TO), wash your face twice a day, treat yourself to a face mask.
find your haircut. find what your face shape is, download Pinterest and search [faceshape] hairstyle, pick one you like and just GO FOR IT. Hair regrows. It also help complement your natural prettiness <3
invest in basic makeup. i’m not talking high end, I’m talking Vaseline, Nivea, the struggle girl brands, I’m talking lipgloss, mascara, lipstick, eyeliner (EYELINER!!) im talking basic stuff that will make you feel in love with yourself. *apply Vaseline to your lips every night before you sleep, your lips will be SUPPLE in a week.
take care of your hair. buy products 4 your hairstyle, hair oil, hair serum, hair milk, hair gel, curl cream, hair water. treat yourself with some hair products, even the basic conditioner or hair mask. If you can afford it, go for it babe!!!
health (body):
don’t starve yourself. girl. would you rather be skinny & on the brink of death OR skinny & strong, never sick, clear skin, defined muscles? well, I WANT to be the latter. Never ever restrict your feels, fast when you don’t have to or live on snacks. Ew, your body is your inner child how dare you.
work out. doesn’t need to be the gym. there is so much you can do at home without any equipment but your willpower. Working out does so much for you, it debloats, helps lose fat, gain hella muscle. just start now. Here’s some links
ab workout, do twice a day ; it’ll be hella hard at first but keep pushing.
no equipment arm workouts , do twice ; don’t underestimate 5 mins.
leg workout , do once ; ow my asscheeks
those are your basics.
hydrate & eat clean. i love chocolate & chips as much as the next bitch but holyyy they make me break out so much. Work in SOUPS for 3 meals in a week, drink 8 cups everyday of water. Your skin will get better, or at least you WILL feel better.
be fucking consistent. set a goal, 3x a week? Fucking stick to it. You ain’t gonna see any progress if it’s once a week, im sorry girl. try try try try try try try.
mental:
start a journal. im not kidding your ass needs to write shit down babe. like physically, pen and paper process the day. find a pocket size notebook and go from there. Don’t wait until you get home, after the incident happens, journal immediately if you can. ive screamed, cried, smiled into my journal.
fucking hell delete Instagram. or at the very least slap a time limit on that bitch. You don’t need to know what everyone is doing and no one needs to know what YOU are doing. Insta & other predatory social media cites feed on your FOMO, jealousy and envy. stop it!!!!!!
go for a walk. scientifically, humans feel better in the sun, soaking up the good vibes. Take advantage of it, start a digital diary where you upload photos from your trip. gahhh go for a walk touch grass!!!
social:
actively take note. actually gaf about what other people like, dislike, their interests and hobbies and network from there. Make yourself knowledgeable in many topics and bring it up!!! listen & ask thoughtful questions.
you don’t need to go for everything. but, you have to go for somethings. Don’t skip all social events just because you’re scared of being alone. Maybe you will be, for the whole time but fuck it, you did it. YOU did it. That said, in 10 events you don’t wanna go to, choose 4 to go. To hell with the rest of them.
get tf out of gossip circles. or, if you want to, just don’t involve yourself in those circles. because if they’re talking shit about everyone else, they have no problem doing that to you. Get ouuuuuut.
people don’t know shit about you. only what you tell them, so don’t tell them all your secrets. Keep a few cards close to your chest, play them right. in the same vein, you don’t know all about other people, be wary and be suspicious of what people tell you especially about others. Okay?
key notes:
nothing will happen if you don’t do anything. you will not magically wake up one day with all your work done, your perf body, your ideal life. Sorry honey, but you and I gotta work for this.
while you have to do this yourself, others are also on the same journey. join a tumblr community like girlblogger society to connect with other dolls locking tf in.
start now.
