Studying as much as I can (3/21)

Study time: 2 hours

Sleep: 8 hours

Magnesium: nope (fuen fuen fuen)

Therapy: did 2/3 of my homework

Exercise: nope (fuen fuen fuen)

Water: 4 full bottles (2L)

Vitamins: yay!

Yesterday I drew (drawed? English is hard) my "Big Mountain of Studies", based on some Tik Toks I saw:

The idea is that, everytime I complete a trail of studies, I color a part of the mountain. When I have colored everything, I will have scaled the whole mountain, and completed the whole material for the contest I'm aiming for. Cool, right?

I also stamped it, together with my flower from my previous post, on the wall, so I could have them constantly on my view, as motivation.

I got some more study tips on that Instagram I mentioned.

- It helps to have a social network of people who have the same objectives as you - in this case, study.

I don't have this in real life, so I searched the internet for some people and communities I could follow on social media. Here's what I found:

On Instagram:

motivatudy (study tips, more academic inclined)

andressabesteves_ (she is also studying for public contests, albeit in a different area than mine - public security)

On Reddit (yeah, I'm a filthy redditor):

r/concursospublicos (this is a Brazilian subbreddit focused on people who are studying for public contests. It's perfect for me!)

r/GetStudying (more motivation and comiseration than anything, but it serves as a community)

r/GetMotivated (also about motivation to change your life)

Cool, right?

Then I followed researching more study tips from "motivatudy"

- Constance of studies (studying regularly) is more important than volume of studies

- It is good to study everyday, but you gotta have balance of life. It won't be healthy to completely neglect your leisure time and your social life

- It helps to see your dreams as a ladder, with every step a small objective you can reach that will lead you to this big objective. This way, things seem less daunting. I guess that's what I'm doing with my flowers and mountains

- It helps with motivation along the day to take breakfast. Ugh. I'm guilty of this. Breakfast is my least favorite meal of the day (the best is dinner!). But I know it helps. I'll start tracking it too

- If you have some sort of mental health issue, studying won't solve it; you need therapy, friend

- What compliments I want to hear next year? I started making a list:

1. She's so smart!

2. She's so fit!

3. She's so beautiful!

4. She's so studious! She was approved on a public contest!

Yeah. So, about the studies, today was a great day, as I managed to reach 24 hours of total study time! Even with my study material trying to sabotage me, 'cause my study site was bugged.

I still studied, worked, enjoyed my analog hobbies (calisthenics and gentle walks). And even managed to paint one more petal of my study flower!

The only problem is that I realized that the tape I used to glue the flower and the mountain on the walls is... a bit stronger than I thought. Ops.

I guess this is a problem for future me.

And I think my routine is helping me! For the first time in months, I was actually sleepy by my sleep time, instead of agitated as fuck. Take that, insomnia!

And that's it for today! I'll leave you guys with a picture of the sky I took during my gentle walk. Bye!

Avoiding Procrastination- Tips and Tricks

Hello everyone! For my first post I’m going to be talking about procrastination, how to fight it and the best tip I’ve seen in relation to it.

Procrastination is the bane of every student, but in case anyone doesn’t know what it means, procrastination is defined as ‘the action of delaying or postponing something.’ Procrastination leaves us with a temporary feeling of relief of not having to deal with the unwanted task, but the more we postpone something the more anxiety we actually create, until it reaches the point where it is impossible to avoid the task any longer, or we simply don’t ever complete it.

Even when we understand what is happening, however, its still a really hard habit to get out of. Naturally we’ll be lead to the least painful tasks first, avoiding the unwanted one and gaining that temporary relief. So how do we stop this?

One of the best tips I’ve ever seen in relation to procrastination, and one that has helped me so much, is this; spend 5 minutes on task, then if you still don’t want to do it, move on. 5 minutes may not seem like a huge amount of time to be productive in, but it is still 5 minutes of work you didn’t have done before! The task isn’t untouched anymore. and some of that anxiety is taken away, and you are in a better place than when you started. Whether you just made a plan or wrote the introductory paragraph to a dreaded essay, you didn’t avoid the task. You started it, and you may even find it wasn’t as bad as you thought, and return to finish it sooner.

Take this approach and soon enough you may find yourself more organised and less stressed about things you haven’t completed; you’ve made a start and have made more progress than you would have if you procrastinated completely. I also find it really helps with any feeling of guilt you may have surrounding the avoidance.

Below I have put a link to a ted talk video about procrastination that is really helpful if you’d like to learn more about why we keep this bad habit so easily!

Thank you for reading and I hope this helps!

//INTRODUCTION POST//

Hi, my name is Marie and I’m new to the studyblr community. 🐣

I’m 20 years old and I study clinical psychology. 🤓 I’m kind of a morning person! I like cats, cute notebooks, pastels colors, hot tea, good series and movies (hit me up with some) and everything with chocolate. 😋

My goal with this studyblr is to be more motivated to study this semester and less procrastinating. I hope 2018 will be a productive year and that this blog will help me get along with it. My main goals are: 1. To be happy with my results 🌻 2. Learn a new language 🌲 3. Trying to be productive every day 🌷

Some studyblr’s that inspired me to start one myself are: @emmastudies @getstudying @minimalismstudies @studynordic @study-matters @kaylareads @nocturne-studies

I really want to follow more studyblr’s! Heart ❤️ or repost 🔄 this if you want me to follow you.

Nothing can explain me better. This link is absolutely precise .

I'm a burden to my family. Useless to society and of absolutely no contribution. My future seems completely and certainly bleak ( rather non existent) I can't do anything and I even settled multiple times in my mind on the prospects of being a small time worker - working part time at three jobs that didn't require qualifications making a home from a studio apartment and possibly even continuing to leach off my parents

Tried two times to off myself and failed because of the inevitable fear of failing at just another thing that I'm relying on or the pain. I'm a coward really. Imagined detaching myself from my family and friends and moving away to struggle myself with no traces left behind. I don't know how it came to this. I'm a genuinely rational person.

I’m not really one for attention and can recognise any attention seeking I may project once in a while or victimising . I’m mature and atleast can say with certainty that I used to be a great student .

I used to be smart, intelligent, witty , responsible and so independent- things you would expect of every elder sibling. Did everything my parents expected of me if not better. I think it's safe to say I was so so competent. I feel as if I am referring to a third person. I don't mean to brag and I can't even associate myself with her.

Another post expressing my feelings excluding the physical actions . ^^^

The last 22 months took a huge turn. I'm getting tired of even trying to explain my situation repeatedly to myself since I have no one to talk to. This is my first time expressing it publicly and seemingly anonymously. The link can't explain my situation any better . It's incredibly accurate. Tired of reiterate myself .

My parents - I don't blame them one bit - decided that given my scores and well versed capabilities, that I would persue a career in stem - engineering and preferably CS. In my country - engineers are valued like Gods. They are know for always ending up successful, moving to a foreign land to live a life of leisure and monetary abundance. But in my country- the competition and the years required to become one continue to steadily increase. As a student previously, it was my ginormous sense of anxiety, stress and fear that made me excellent- truly. I'm the type to believe I don't know anything and revise multiple times enough to be able to picturise the pages and information word for word . I was anxious enough before exams to make the people around me anxious. I get easy unnerved and stressed out by the possibility of imperfections and mistakes . I needed to feel like I knew everything to feel like I was enough . Hell … my friend wrote an entire essay about anxiety , stress and mental health in students , thinking about me ! (Her words ) I can't begin the explain the feeling of inadequacy . I can't begin the explain the feelings | felt and that I completely credit for making me the best I could be. A sense of not being good enough per say. The extent of this sense being experienced beyond normal amounts . That sense has now motivated me to do the opposite- not try at all .

youtube

My parents tend to be a little selfish - not because they chose my careers - but just as people. They don't really look beyond themselves ( or my younger brother at that). I remember when my mother called me jealous of her at age 9 ? Like woah. You have to be a different level of self absorbed to call your child jealous of you . Same for dad. Still I sympathise with them because they came from severely underprivileged backgrounds- no proper food or home and gave us the resources we need - never once depriving us of any of our wishes and needs. I valued this and am grateful- hence worked hard .[[ I learnt to check the price tag at a young age and never asked for anything . I was met with an epiphany recently of how the only things I’ve ever truly wanted and asked for ( skating , art classes , teachers , friends ) have always been scratched away from me … for reasons I couldn’t control . I can’t help but think of how life deliberately worked it’s way out to fuck me up .]]] Thus, they never really paid me much attention- I handled my academics and responsibilities on my own . They never had to follow up or ask me about school or my day . They trusted me . They don't deserve having a child that not only gave them false hopes of a bright future - but now the complete impossibility of it. It doesn't help that my brother never studies and is a spoilt pampered brat to the point that he's completely intolerable. Leaving my entire family's hopes and dreams to be on my shoulders - not that I mind it's natural given the cognitive advancement I showed - but it would be easier to slack off with some backup. All eyes on me they say, but somehow my brother still manages to bag the title for most coddled and selfish and loved person by my family.

I love my parents so much . They don’t deserve a failure like me . They deserve a child that is able to fulfill their dreams and aspirations and keep them happy . I always want them to be happy . I want them to genuinely be happy . I love them so much . They deserve everything the world has to offer - but me . I’m a burden . I feel terrible for I’m wasting so many of their resources… all their hard work , blood , sweat and tears … just wasted because of this bullshit of an excuse . I’ve reached a level where I’ve become numb to the pain and every time the waves come back I think this is an excuse … yes coming from someone who has experienced how gruelling it is first hand … it gets so tiring … you start to forget what has happened to you and just let it take over with a sigh. I feel terrible facing my parents everyday and lying to their faces … but that’s the only way I get to see them smile

The last 2 years with the exposure to incredible competition, the demotivation of doing something I'm not sure I want to do, the feeling of just being dumb and nowhere compared to my peers caused a huge downfall. No friends - none All previous ones having found peace in abandoning me now that I was of no use to them. Negativity and the guilt of not even batting an eye at my own ignorance to my future piling up with time. Last year I faced severe depression- alone Cried everyday for 5-6 months at least 4 times per day. Hyperventilating and numbing migraines following the episodes . (No one knew cause growing up I learnt to be a silent crier) suicidal thoughts constantly on my mind. I can't remember a time when I wasn't thinking about how worthless I am and how undeserving I am of the time space and resources I occupy. Tried offing myself twice but didn't go through with it completely, both times fearing the after effects that my parents would have to deal with, the shame from society and the possibility of failing and being left with permanent mental scaring and disability. I can't remember much of those months (a coping mechanism of the brain ) but all I can remember is that my brain and body begs me not to put myself thorough it again . ( with brushing my teeth being the only grounding experience )

I don't know how I got out of it . Ignorance helped . I went back to the cycle that preceded those 5-6 months, filled with the feeling of idk and idc, in capability and loss that ultimately had led to the gruelling time in the first place

Now I'm here . But improving ? I guess?

Led myself to the given link and honestly couldn’t be thankful enough to the person that posted it with such accuracy. Explains from top to bottom . I can’t compete . I can’t live in this world anymore . I’m not strong enough. I’m selfish and weak .

I can’t help but compare myself to all the rich folks who don’t have to work a day in their lives to deserve half of what we do . I’m lazy . I’m resentful and I’m lonely . I’m so so lonely . I’ve accepted it , but sometimes I can’t help but wonder what it’s like , and other times i worry I’ll never let that happen to myself… im my own hindrance to a normal life . Im the only person I can’t run away from and scares me . Im terrible to myself , im a terrible person , im so negative no wonder I ended up like this and no one cares to be around me , I wouldn’t wanna be around me either . I know I’ve emphasised on school in this article .. but there are numerous factors that addup .

I tried to talk to my parents once - failed attempt and so now I'm trying to study for an exam that severely affects my life . I don't know what led me to suddenly feel the need to take action but l'm happy it happened. But of course - things that aren't addressed fall back - I'm starting to feel everything again. My exams have commenced. The first - English - I got back my feelings of anxiety and stress, bombarded my brain with info for three days and did well in the exam. I felt to happy to feel something ! To be so occupied with that pressure that I once felt , that I didn't have time to think about how useless I truly am ! But now I feel like I can't read a single page . I feel like I’ve exhausted all the capability I had in those three days . I have more exams coming up - important ones at that. I'm completely hopeless. I know I may have only recovered once but there is truly no future for me. I'm not smart anymore. Not productive. I'm useless. I still don't know what I want to do with my life.I can’t study . I don't even think about it because everyday I pray that I don't wake up . I can't explain the summarisation of my place rn. Isolation probably had a part to play in this . The pandemic ruined my life . I just don't want to be here. Im a burden . An annoyance. I can't be here . I’m shit . Better of non-existent . I can't study anymore let alone do anything. I don't know how to explain how inconspicuous | am! Omg | hate myself so much - I'm not looking for comfort. Im worth the hate, I deserve nothing . I completely declined. Completely and severely. This ends here abruptly but I truly am no good. There is nothing else to say. I have an eating disorder . Suffered from repeated night mares and insomnia . Now it feels like even offing myself is not an option because I'm bad at that too. Even though I innately deserve the non existence and am not deserving of the life that I have , I can't bring myself to end it all (successfully).I pray that I don't wake up tomorrow :) I pray everyday.

(I still feel like I haven’t explained well enough or recounted all my experiences - forgotten - to encapsulate my state. I’m sorry . I’m so sorry . I don’t want to be here either . I’m sorry )

I’m most regretful for the time I wasted , The life and the body that I wasted with my worthless soul, the memories and time I stole from people , the place I held in their lives (irrespective of how insignificant , positive or negative it may have been ) . I’m most regretful to my parents , my parents that I hate but love so much , the parents I’m so grateful for , the parents I disappoint, the parents I don’t deserve . Punish me .

It’s easy to just blame myself for my situation . If only I had continued to impassively do what was expected of me , do what so many children do on a daily basis to make their families proud - ignoring their dreams to persue those of their families. To be able to work hard and relentlessly towards something they don’t care for . If only I could do that . If only I could do the normal . I harbour so much respect for the people that manage to make through a day productively and tirelessly work forward to reach a goal they can’t see. Everyone is going through or has been through an immense struggle . I hold so much admiration for everyone around me . I just seem to not be strong enough . Such is life . I can’t explain the guilt and shame I feel . I don’t deserve to be here . I don’t deserve what I have . I’m so sorry . I’m so sorry . I’m sorry . I’m sorry . I’m sorry … I’m hopeless .

I pray that I don’t wake up tomorrow , I pray everyday .

The Princess has a Studyblr?

What's good, tumblrverse?

Well, I'm an eighteen-year-old South African legal studies/llb/law student, with a very known ability to procrastinate. I have created this tumblr in hope that this studyblr will motivate students towards achieving their goals - small, big or in between. 💭

Studying is literally the only thing I ever dread, prolong and endure - and I'm pretty sure I've got this in common with a zillion of you. However, I recently stumbled across this:

Sometimes, self-care is not simply relaxation. Sometimes, it is studying for that test, taking steps towards the goals you know you want. Taking care of yourself, and your future.

I'm big on self-care and that excerpt kinda awakened the sleeping dragon in me - it made me want to leave all that I was occupied with, just to begin with studying. 😭😭😭

I will be reblogging quotes/studyspo/anything relevant to a studyblr which has impacted me as an interactive student, and blah blah.

Also, hoping to make some friends along the way.

Greatest luck to you all. ⚡

Zahra A.

1. Get a “ready to get shit done” routine.

Getting in a routine allows your mind to get used to the idea of work and conditions it to be focused. My personal routine is preparing a cup of tea and filling up a to-do list before getting to work.

2. Always study in the same spot.

This trick, just like the routine, helps conditioning your mind to study when the right conditions are met.

3. Have a “study zone” playlist.

Again, a study playlist helps conditioning your mind to study.

4. Put away your phone.

Even with the sound and vibration off, it can be tempting to take a look at the screen, especially if you see it flash up every few seconds. It might be best to put it away in a bag or leave it in another room. If you turn off notifications, I recommend using an app like Forest, to motivate you not to grab it in the middle of a study session.

5. Use a website blocker.

A website blocker like Stayfocusd will help you keep on track if you have to search things on the Internet while you are working. In complement with this, you can also use a different browser for research so you don’t have all your bookmarks and favourites at the top of the page tempting you to click them.

6. Try the Pomodoro method.

... or one of its many variants. The Pomodoro method basically involves 5-minute breaks for every 25-minute focus session, and a bonus long 25-30-minute break after 4 focus sessions. You can try longer focus sessions and longer breaks, or shorter, it’s up to you! What matters is leaving room for your brain to breathe and take breaks every once in a while.

7. Limit your amount of time spent studying.

It’s better to study a little bit every day than do a cram day right before the exam. Breaks and sleep allow your brain to process and organize new information in a way that makes sense for you.

8. Dedicate specific moments in your schedule to study.

Having a dedicated study period could help you dedicating the amount of hours you want to your study as it allows you to treat it like an event.

9. Focus on the important stuff.

It’s okay to prioritize, and sometimes you need to do so. If you have accumulated work that is due soon, there are a few possible strategies. You can either go for the pieces of work that matter the most on your final grade, go for the classes you have the most difficulty with or going for the things you have to hand out first.

10. Get someone to keep you accountable.

You can ask a friend to be your study buddy and send each other your to-do lists for the day. You can also use a website like FocusMate to find someone online, post your to-do list in the accountability thread of r/getstudying or use a study Discord server.
