helloooo just here to give a lil advice on boosting productivity levels since i’ve been doing these things for the past three weeks and it’s workin some MAGIC lemme tell ya
• As soon as you get home, WORK (stop procrastinating)
ok i know this sucks n no one wants to do it but trust me, the feeling of having your work done by 6 o clock rather than eating dinner, waiting around and then at midnight realizing you have a shit ton to complete is much more appealing
• Have a to-do list for each day
this is really why i started my bullet journal; being able to check off boxes is legitimately one of the most satisfying feelings and motivates you to do more in the day as well as finish more
could just be for me, but i cannot do mass amounts of work at home. even though i work at my desk, i find a reason to take a break and end up on tumblr for few hours and then take a nap ... so now i go to the library when i need to study ! you can’t sleep there tbh, so you’re put in an environment that’s made specifically for working and it gets you to work more too
• Listen to “lyricless” music
music helps keep your mind awake esp when you’re studying a concept that bores you to death, so keep your earbuds in and get to work! avoid listening to things like rap or country though b/c the words will distract you; i normally listen to lofi music
incase you wanna listen to the same playlist i use:

• Use the chrome extension Momentum
this goes along the same lines as the to do list tip, but for your laptop! Momentum is a free chrome extension that gives you a different background for your tab start screen every day along with a to do list box. You can personalize it to whether you want it to show your productivity rate for the day, percent of completed tasks, the time, temp., etc. I use this along with my bullet journal because I can add much more specific little tasks into this that would “waste” space in my bujo :) just another thing that lets you tick off tiny squares to make yourself feel better lolol
• Track how you feel (if you REALLY just cannot get yourself to wanna work)
simple n easy, be productive just for ONE DAY and write down how you feel. Write it down on a random piece of paper, into your notes on your phone, wherever that you can go back and read it later. Be unproductive for one day (one day will not kill you i promise,) on days that you feel crappy READ THE TWO OF THEM AND REALIZE HOW MUCH BETTER LIFE IS WHEN YOU’RE PRODUCTIVE AND WORKING stress is lifted and you sleep earlier ohohoh life is a beautiful time trust me
YOU ARE GETTIN SHIT DONE THIS TIME! YOU ARE THRIVING AND SURVIVING AND I LOVE YOU! if you need anything, feel free to message me :)
