Things I live by

Hygiene 🌿Brush teeth 2x day  🌿Deodorant every day - you don’t wanna smell nasty during the day 🌿Shower every other day - you can shower every day but for me showering is a struggle due to my mental illness so I only do every other day (if I can) 🌿Sundays are self care days - face masks, nail care, chill music, watching movies and stuff to relax before the new week comes 🌿Shave every other week - esp. now that summer is coming

Exercise 🌿Monday - leg day 🌿Wednesday - back, stomach and chest day 🌿Friday - biceps and triceps 🌿Cardio - 15-20 min 3x a week 🌿Small 10 min weekend workout

Face 🌿Evening skincare - cleanser, micellar water and night cream 🌿Morning skincare - micellar water and day cream 🌿Eyebrow tweeze every other week 🌿Exfoliate once a week - during sunday pamper 🌿Lipbalm - every day as much as needed

Academia 🌿Homework - actually do it, lol. do it as soon as you get home so you free up your evening 🌿Start assignments early - diamonds are made under pressure, but good grades aren’t 🌿Participate in class - the teacher won’t know how smart you are unless you say something 🌿Take notes - you ain’t gonna remember shit, girl, just take the damn notes 🌿Keep up with your languages pls - if you have learnt/are learning another language(s) please review them or you’re gonna forget

Inner beauty 🌿Be kind - i’m not saying change your whole demeanour to become the kindest person ever, but be kind where you can, life is tough for all of us 🌿Help - if you can, then help. if not, refer to someone who can 🌿Walk with your head high - this is gonna boost your confidence 🌿Eye contact - it makes you look more sincere and into the conversation 🌿Smile - to strangers, to friends, to the cashier, to the dog, just smile 🌿Be true to yourself - speak your honest opinions, don’t be fake and don’t lie, just be you 🌿Love yourself - this will be hard, but when you love yourself, life will automatically become 100x better 🌿Trust in God 🌿Be humble - but still rejoice in your victories 🌿Don’t care about other people - don’t let them stop you from doing things you want to do, it’s your life, not theirs 🌿Face your problems - have courage, ignoring it till it goes away does not always work 🌿Redefine success - success doesn’t have to be “got all A’s on my exam”, it can also be things like “got outside today”, “didn’t skip school even though my anxiety wanted me to” or something else 🌿Don’t apologize too much - it’s a nasty habit to say sorry for everything, things that aren’t even your fault. also don’t apologize for saying no, your priorities, loving someone and telling the truth.

Sleeping pattern 🌿Sleep at same time every night - for me this is 23.00, this is the time i need to fall asleep so i’ll actually be in bed by 22.30 🌿Wake at the same time every morning - 6.00 for me 🌿No electronics 30 min before bed - use this time for skin care and getting things ready for the next day 🌿Change your alarm tones once a month - it’s so easy to sleep through them when you get used to their sound 🌿Don’t snooze! - if this is a real struggle for you, like it is for me, try an app where there is no snooze function 🌿Listen to subliminals - i listen to subliminals but you don’t need to obvs. 🌿Make your bed 

Misc 🌿Take care of how you dress - a bomb/comfortable outfit that you love can make or break your day 🌿Clean your room - it’ll make the rest of your day much better, trust me 🌿Change your bedsheets regularly - even if you can only muster up the energy to do it once every three months 🌿Work towards your goals - whether it be getting A on that exam, or getting that dream job. break it down into smaller parts and work towards it. 🌿It’s okay to fall apart sometimes - life is a bitch, and sometimes it overwhelms us so much we want to fall apart. that’s okay. take a small break from life, breathe and then reboot. you can do this. 🌿Mental illness is a bitch - and recovery and getting help is scary. but, even if you don’t get professional help, because not everyone is ready for that, at least have someone you can talk to when things gets so rough. please.  🌿That special occasion is now - don’t save things for special occasions, because a special thing can make any occasion special (quote tumblr) 🌿Not everything needs an explanation - you want that tattoo? get it, it doesn’t need a significant meaning. you want to shave your head? do it, who cares if there’s a why. 🌿Spontaneity is great! - do things just because you can 🌿Don’t wait for summer to have that great life - summer is great, and many times we glamorize it “summer is going to be the best this year, i can’t wait”. make your daily life the best, and every week will feel like summer. 🌿Winter is a bummer - seasonal affective disorder is a legit thing. winter can be so depressing in the dark and the cold. try to find the beauty in it anyways.  🌿Don’t judge someone because they sin differently than you

How to be productive:

Buy a notebook or clear a place on your wall for a chalkboard, pin board or whatever.

Write down everything that you need to do.

Now determine the importance of doing each of these things. Highlight or put a star on the high priority things.

Examine how you currently spend your days and decide what hours you can replace with productive actions. (eg I like to use my lunch hour productively so I can be lazy for a few hours after class)

Now divide everything you need to do over the week. Clearly mark your due dates so that you won’t forget them.

Work somewhere that will inspire you to work. A coffee shop where you don’t know anyone, a library, your kitchen. Don’t work in your room(on your bed) or in front of a tv.

Put your phone away while you work. You don’t really need to be checking your Instagram or Snapchat. And trust me, scrolling can take up an hour of your time without you even noticing.

Exercise! Exercise really does help you stay energized.

Drink water! Get your 2-3 liters in every day.

Eat healthy foods and in smaller portions. Healthy food fuels your brains and smaller portions mean that you won’t want to take a nap to recover.

Have a rewards system. Now listen up, to have a rewards system you need to get out of the habit of just giving yourself what you want. A reward only works if you don’t get the item all the time. Rewards will vary from person to person but they could be things like doing 2 hours of proper work = 1 episode of your favorite show. 1 week of productivity every day = going out on friday night. finishing that project= this snack. etc.

Constantly remind yourself of what you’re working for. Is it University acceptance, your dream job, personal stability,your dream body? Keep the reminder close.

Cross off what you complete! This sounds funny but studies have actually shown that people feel more satisfied when they see how they’ve progressed. So, instead of mentally checking off a list, physically check off a list. It’ll motivate you!

Keep quiet about your goals! Studies have also shown that a person lets everyone know what their goal is, that person generally congratulates them, causing their brain to feel satisfied, without them actually having to do the work. But, on the other hand, we tend to be harder on ourselves when people don’t know what we’re working on. 

Try not to multitask. Trust me, multitasking means that no project is finished at the end of the day. That demotivates easily. So, instead of trying to finish all tasks, focus on one and let the satisfaction of completing it fuel you to work on the next few tasks.

Remember that you can’t do everything at once. You’ll burn out. So, dedicate time for your brain to relax. Read or journal before you sleep, stretch, listen to relaxing music. Go through your skin care routine. 

If you feel that you can’t start the work and cut the bad habits at once then focus on cutting out a bad habit. Start with saying no to watching tv and youtube. Remind yourself to make your bed before you leave your room. Put your phone away for a few hours. Then, once this comes easily to you replace these things.

It’s not an easy journey, so forgive yourself when you mess up and don’t follow the plan, but don’t make excuses. Take full responsibility for your actions. (Yes, I have to finish my project in two days because I watched tv every day after school. Yes, I didn’t clean the house because I stayed up so late last night that I needed to have a nap today).  Also, don’t require excuses for taking a day off for your mental health. Sometimes we just need a good reset day.
