#I feel like I’m starting this quarter off strong #got super organized + was proactive about making a meeting with my advisor to see how I can catch up #and have been good about substances which like I haven’t bad about for a little while but I like to monitor #I’ve been proactive with making meetings and organizing my calendar / making a routine #plus bought a daily planner so I can map out my weeks and check in each morning briefly #it almost feels repetitive given my virtual task list BUT with this specifically I can visually see my free time #and after my schedule settles down week 2 I can use that to set aside daily skill development time #I get too hyper fixated on something and then it falls apart #so I think I’m gonna devote one to two hours each day to a different activity #make up / painting / writing / coding / guitar #one activity for each weekday #and then weekends are a free for all #ALSO #I was reading up on my postdoc opportunity in Germany and it got me REALLY REALLY MOTIVATED #to the point I ended up scouting 2022’s top deutsch pop and found a bunch of songs I love #so now I have a new German playlist to get me in the zone #I’ve been taking daily pimsleur lessons and the new Duolingo revamp has been highly motivating too #and like 10x more educational #the goal is for me to get through 30 lessons of pimsleur by the end of the quarter which means like one lesson every 2-3 days #idk I just am reaching a point where it’s time to begin living life and growing #I may not be who I want yet but this skill development is part of putting in the work #and along with weight loss is going to make me such a better more well rounded person #I’m feeling REALLY motivated about all this!!! AND talked to my doc and we made a lil med adjustment to help with focus #so I’m feeling like the sky’s the limit #add that to my new daily skincare routine and I’m feeling really well put together #I think this quarter’s gonna end up being amazing. 2023 is 100% gonna be my year
