[a-study-log]

I’ve crossed the halfway mark of the #45daysof2021 . I compiled a list of things that I’ve improved or become better at, over all.

- better sleeping schedule. While waking up pre-sunrise is a goal, I’ve been making it a priority to get at least 6 hours of sleep a day.

- Staying consistent with studying and working out. The workouts are not everyday but, I’m making effort to make that possible soon.

- Staying true to the study goals I made and adapting. A few unexpected things came up and instead of being overwhelmed by them, I’m learning to adapt and shift focus as need.

- Improving my study-work-life balance. I took up a wfh job in a field I like during the pandemic but was planning to quit it since uni started. I called my boss last month and we discussed alternatives since working together was going really well. My work ethic wasn’t the best before, but, in the last 3 weeks, I’ve become better at managing my time and sticking to deadlines. I’ve also slashed my hours since uni started so, it’s a decent balance.

I’ll focus on the positives for now ✨
