stuck but trying @stuckbuttrying - Tumblr Blog

hi.

i’ve spent years trying productivity systems that never worked for me.

they always assumed i could just “decide” to start.

so i started stripping things down.

no pressure. no perfect days.

just simple systems for when my brain doesn’t cooperate.

sometimes i share things that helped me.

if any of it helps you too, that’s enough.

links are in my bio 🤍

things i've made:

Discover new ways to use Notion across work and life.

low energy days deserve systems too.

i stopped trying to “stay on top of things” and started trying to make it easier to come back. that helped more than any planner.

avoidance is weird because the longer you avoid something, the heavier it feels, even if the task itself is small.

if a system gives me more decisions, it usually becomes the thing i avoid.

sometimes the kindest thing i can do is build systems for my worst days, not my best ones.

the problem with most systems is that they assume motivation is stable.

mine isn’t.

i realized i don’t avoid things because i’m lazy.

i avoid them because starting feels emotionally risky.
