170512 // weekly spread of week 18. “A little progress each day” 😊 So the left space on each day was for tasks, the right smaller space for events. I divided them by a timeline to place the events throughout the day. 😄

Sorry for my inactivity, I’ve been busy with college orientations and activities! Anyways, here’s a detailed infographic about my study habits, as requested by an anon. Please take note that these habits are effective for me, but may not be effective for you. Do not feel pressured to adapt these because there is no single “right” way to study! I encourage you to find out the best study habits for YOU.

Here’s the bujo title page i made for august. I wanted it to be summery and stuff and suddenly there were eels involved ?? Sometimes you gotta roll with it i guess. Also i’ll be starting my summer job in a few days and i’m sooo excited.

-26.07.17- An old bullet spread I forgot to post! I was looking back on spreads from the start of this year and I honestly can’t believe how much I’ve improved, I can’t wait to see where I go in the months to come!

24/07/2017 Day 2 of my 100 happy days

Today I cleaned my room! It was a tip as I hadn’t fully unpacked after coming back home from university and I’m going on holiday next week so there were clothes and suitcases lying around everywhere and bits of food and paper on my desk. My room feels a lot brighter now and my head feels much clearer! 😊 Idk about anyone else but I can’t think properly with a messy room!

Started reading The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg and I’m completely in love. Definitely recommend reading it!

I’m gonna be honest. I hate mornings. I’ve always wanted to be a morning person – to wake up early and energized and hop out of bed with no problem. But, instead I wake up most mornings just wanting to go back to bed. Luckily, you don’t have to be a morning person to have a productive morning.

waking up

  • Getting out of bed is the hardest part. Start with a realistic time to set your alarm – the days I set my alarm for 6 with good intentions are the days I turn it off and sleep way late. I’m much more likely to actually get out of bed if I set it for a little later. 
  • I like to use an app like Sleep Cycle that wakes you up gently.
  • Or go old school and use an actual alarm clock, and kick your phone out of your room altogether. 
  • As soon as you get out of bed, get dressed and make up your bed. You’ll automatically feel more productive and you’ll be way less likely to go back to sleep. 

first things first

  • It’s hard to be productive on an empty stomach – eat some breakfast as soon as you feel up to it. 
  • I find it hard to eat in the mornings, so I’ll usually have a light snack of fruit with coffee when I first wake up, and then eat something a little heavier around 10.
  • Get moving! whether it’s yoga, a quick run (i salute those of you who can run in the mornings), or just a couple jumping jacks. 
  • Get ready for the day before you get to work. This way you 1) feel more ~human~ and productive right off the bat and 2) won’t have to stop working to get dressed later when you’ve gotten into a groove.

get to work

  • Check your planner and make plan for the day
  • Get all your supplies and your space ready
  • Fill up a water bottle so you can stay hydrated!
  • Put away distractions (install a site blocker if you need to!)
  • Put on some music that makes you feel happy 
  • Knock one or two little tasks off your list first, then go on to the hardest task/one you’re dreading
  • Don’t forget regular breaks so you don’t feel burnt out by lunch!
