Small, low energy ways to be productive: 

Clean clothes up from the floor 

Empty the dish washer 

Answer an email 

Study vocabulary for ten minutes

Watch an episode of a series in your target language

Make your bed 

Throw out the trash 

Do laundry 

Some days we don’t have the energy to study for two hours, clean your entire house, or organize a meeting with your co-workers. It’s important to do small, achievable things to motivate us. When starting your day, maybe start out with a low energy task to get your mind into the productivity mindset without burning yourself out. Take care <3

Day 2 of 100 days of productivity challenge

It’s gloomy outside, but I feel more motivated and upbeat these days than I’ve been in a long time. Today, I studied some vocab for French, before spending an hour or so on duolingo. I started using the desktop version, and I am blown away. It’s so simple and fun, I love learning with it. I cleaned up some of the clutter in my room too, and lit a scented candle while I read in The Little Friend by Donna Tartt. I took some time to journal, which I always love to do. Tomorrow, I’ll go to the grocery store and buy more candles for setting the journaling mood.

My baby indoor garden ✨🌱

I was watching YouTube, and I came over a video of someone growing vegetables from their windowsill using vegetables from the store. I wanted to try the same! I found a spring onion in my fridge, and cut it up, and put it in a glass of water. HOLY MOLY! Not even two hours later, a little green was to be seen at the top! I’m very excited to see where this goes!
