4 June 2016 // Saturday here's my journal so far :-) !! I began this a while back and here's what I've been up to! I've started

goals things to do 

when i first wrote this, it was originally ‘goals’ but i realised what will our goals be if we don’t act on it so i decided rather than calling it ‘goals’ i should call it ‘things to do’ so that it is definite to happen bc it is possible the only thing stopping me is myself actually doing it

idk does that make sense whoops

why do i study?

a list of reasons on why i study, why i want to study and why i want to excel

to keep me motivated and so i can look back on it in hard times

habit tracker

to track what I do on a daily basis

this month being the holidays, I’ve decided to start my list w the subjects I take so that I can check that off when I do my homework, revision, readings or have an extra class that day

then i have tasks like watering my plant, waking up early, watching animes, playing sims etc.

helps me keep track of my productivity as well!

note to self

little reminders to get my shit together

“I would like to thank...”

i had this random idea of writing a ‘thank you’ speech as if I’m receiving an award

this idea came from neil patrick harris’ instagram post about his thank you speech btw

so i thought why write a ‘thank you’ speech only when you’re receiving awards? why not have a list of who you wanna thank and why?

i think it makes me appreciate more in general and be grateful for what i have

semester two at a glance

a rip off of a year at a glance tbh

it makes me see my exam dates, holidays and events easier

oh wow half the year is gone oh no

advice? maybe

shitty advice from angela pt. 1

always make lists! it helps loads to pen down your thoughts unto paper

are you daydreaming about your future house/apartment?

make a list about what you want, how you want it to look etc.

i have mine it’s called ‘move out: must haves’

are you thinking of all the courses you’re considering?

jot it down!!

when you write all these down, it declutters your mind and also: you won’t have to worry about forgetting about that thought bc it’s all on paper!

time yourself! keep a timer to get your productivity in check

it discourages procrastination, simply bc there’s no time to procrastinate if you’re racing against time

it reminds you to take breaks in between

basically use the pomodoro technique!

for ex. i time myself in the mornings when i’m in a rush to school bc i tend to use my phone instead of drying my hair so i give myself 5 minutes to get each task done in the morning

keep a clean room! clean room = clear mind

stay hydrated! 

open your window! natural lighting and fresh air are both good for you 

if you’re falling asleep

take a shower or wash your face etc

take a break or a nap 

make sure that you set an alarm and don’t oversleep

go out for a walk

play a video game for a lil bit

make yourself a cup of tea or coffee

make yourself a snack

but always make sure to time yourself! 

switch tasks between heavy content subjects which needs a lot of reading and writing with subjects like math which needs application

it’s to break the momentum and keep you energised!
