#100 Days of Productivity

Okay, here we go!

No bullshit. No excuses. And definitely no pity party.

I am going to post daily here and update the tasks that I completed that day. After the failure of countless diaries, planners, journals and habit-building apps, I think 'putting it out there' on the internet can somehow (even a tiny percentage) more accountable.

Atleast my love of social media and all visual mediums might guilt me into being regular and post it all. I won't boast my achievements and I definitely WONT be sugar-coating my failures. This post series is for me (and everyone who wants to observe) to log everything and not shy away from pending tasks.

Before we begin, a bit about me and where I wan to see myself at the 100th day of this challenge:

Current status:

- Looking for employment

- Needs motivation to study for MBA entrance

- At the crux of my health journey

- Mentally happy and at peace (could be more happier and calm)

100th day person (my ideal self at that time)

- Steady job that I love

- Have completed 100% of QUANT/Maths for GMAT

- Read 10 books (or more)

- Completed 1 WHOLE sketchbook

- Healthy body and mind

- Maybe... move to a new city?

Alright! That's it. Any motivation sent my way would be highly appreciated.

Here we go!🙌

Showing my 'realistic' study set up.

Now let me tell you a bit about it. I study on a bed table and not on my desk and chair. While a desk and chair set up would have been much better, and trust me I prefer that more, I have to study on my bed due to health issues.

I am on certain medications that make me retain too much weight in my ankles and legs. So much so it's difficult to walk sometimes or even move. And while I workout and go for morning walks, I have to make sure that my feet are elevated for the most part of the day. And that means studying on the bed...with your legs propped on a pillow...😭

It's not too bad.

But getting back to the set up, notice the lack of pretty things??? Well that's how I like it. I feel like studying should not be about looks and showcasing what accessories or stationary you have...but rather what you make out of it.

I use a plain notebook, flash cards for difficult stuff, 2-3 different colored pens and a highlighter. And of course the book or laptop I am studying from.

Keep to minimum stuff. On your attempt to create a #studyblr don't forget your main goal: why you are doing this? The reason behind your hardwork is definitely not getting more followers or likes. It's to get good grades and progress.

So work for that.

Thought of the day:

To be an anomaly, you've to act like one.

Day 6/100

I did nothing today. Absolutely nothing conclusive. Oh wait, I did make a rough draft for my assignment. But thats it.

One measly draft. And the whole day wasted. I feel terrible. On top of that, my period cramps haven't been making it any easier.

Day 12/100

So my biopsy is happening this Friday. The doctor said that we shouldn't be delaying it anymore. So yeah. Going to the hospital tomorrow for an RT PCR test before the procedure.

Anyhow, I couldn't do much today because of staying at the hospital... But here's what I got done:

- Went for a walk

- Studied (Ratio practice)

- 1 Assignment

Hope to get done some more assignments before Friday.

Day 11/100

What I achieved today:

And that's it.

But there are a few things that I have to positively cross out tomorrow:

- Pending assignment (email recruiters)

- Complete the chapter on Ratio

- Go over 2 GMAT English papers

- Workout

- Important doctor's appointment

Day 9/100

What I did:

- Assignment

- Freelance blogpost

And nothing because the better part of my day was spent at the hospital. 😶

I suffer from a disease called HS Purpura. It affects my blood pressure and kidney function. Another weird symptom is that it makes my blood vessels burst inside my skin which inturn makes these red dots appear in my skin. So, my doctor, the nephrologist, suggested that it's time to take the next step: a biopsy.

Scared AF

Here's tp hoping that tomorrow goes better than this.🧡

Day 8/100

Moderately okay day. I am getting quite used to my intermittent fasting routine. Energy levels are also good. But before I give a detailed account, it's better to just write down what I did today:

- 50% assignment done

- Outline done for another assignment

- Went for a short walk

- Drank 2.5 L of water (that's really big amount for me!)

And that's it. I think my first week wasn't as good as I had expected. I definitely had many ups and downs. But in all this mess, I realized one thing. It's not 'motivation' that I lack. Trust me, my mood board is always up and filled to the brim to shock me with some instant motivation juice.

It's accountability that I lack. In other words, I'm lazy.

There! I said it.

It's a sad fact that I come to realize after unsuccessfully squashing my inner voice and sometimes outside voice (of my parents). I really need to push myself to get things done. Like really. And despite knowing how doing those things can actually help me, I keep failing at them.

Ok okok... Deep breath. What's the worst that could happen?

Relatively, a lot of things. I almost feel like i have lost touch with my writing career (marketing as well). My studies aren't pushing me enough. But I want to change. I so want to.

I have this strange and perfect 'Me' in mind that I HAVE TO BECOME soon in order to get my dreams. I just have to push myself. Only I can get there.

Hopefully, in Day 50 or 70, I might have almost become that person. So in hopes of that day. I have to try.

I have to try again.

Day 3/100

Was an okayish day today. While I couldn't really check out all the tasks, I think I did a pretty good job anyway.

What I achieved today:

- Read another 20 pages (will be finishing the book tomorrow)

- Studied for a test

- Maths 🥲

- Short Workout

- Went on a long walk

- Digital painting

Couldn't really touch on my assignments, so I might have to really push myself tomorrow to get them all done. 🤞🏽

Health update: Starting intermittent fasting from tomorrow. I will be easing in with 9:15. 9 hrs eating ( 10 am to 7 pm) and 15 hrs fasting. Hopefully in another week I might start 8:16. Will do a separate blog on that.
