Studying can be a daunting task, especially when we're not feeling motivated or don't know where to start. Luckily you are on Tumblr, where the Tumblr Studyblr community lives!
A group of individuals who share their study tips, techniques, and challenges to help motivate and inspire others.
As a member of this community, I've compiled a master post of study challenges created by Studyblr bloggers. These challenges aim to help students stay on track, improve their focus, and achieve their academic goals. So you can join in and start achieving your academic potential!

If you know any other challenges or you've created ones yourself and want to share them, do message me with the link to the post so I can update the list! I too will be creating some, more coding-related ones as I am a coding studyblr (codeblr) blog! That's all and hope you find a challenge you'd like to start!
Hi everyone! I've been doing this challenge called 30 days of intentionality (30doi) and I thought I'd explain how I'm doing it in case anyone wants to join in! I have no prompts for this one bc it is by nature quite personal.
THE CHALLENGE
Similar to the 30 days of productivity challenge, this one is really open to interpretation. Anyone can do it and mold it however they like, I'm just here to give a little bit of guidance to those who need it.
For me, intentions include 'keeping in good health', 'studying for my dream job', 'working towards my career', 'maintaining and building good friendships'.
If you're unsure about how to format your posts, this is what i include:
- date
- intentions (if you make these vague, it's a good idea to elaborate on how you plan to achieve your intentions)
- a recommendation (current reads, songs, movies, videos, etc)
- reflection
- tags with #30doi
here's an example of one of my 30doi posts for reference
other notes:
I usually update my post throughout the day, crossing out the stuff I've done and adding in a reflection before bed if i can.
You can do this challenge manually, I sometimes write my intentions down on paper for a few days and then transcribe (you don't have to transcribe)
This challenge should be for you, don't worry about posting consistently, or making your posts pretty. the important thing is that you are being intentional with your day.
Even if you don't physically post or write your intentions, try to think to yourself what they might be each day, and try your best to meet those.
Off-days are okay, in fact, they are what make this challenge a real challenge. if you're just running on the momentum of having had a perfect streak, there's no difficulty in this
Tag your posts under the tag #30doi so that others can see your posts and interact (including me)
if you want a reblog, i track the tag #heydilli which can be used for non-challenge posts too
That's all I can think of for now, but like I said, the 30doi is open to interpretation and i am by no means taking credit for 'creating' the challenge. like i mentioned for the 30dop, i don't really believe these challenges can be created. Below the cut is a rant about intentionality and my reasons for doing this challenge if you want to have a read.
Hope to see your posts and progress,
xx dilli ๐ค
What is intentionality?
We all know what intentions areโyour purpose and meaning behind doing something. Intentionality is bigger, it is "the structure which gives meaning to experience." Intentionality is your capacity to have intentions.
Having intentions governs how you perceive every experience you have. Take this example: if your intention for tonight is to wind down and relax, settling down in front of the TV will be viewed as a way to rest, reset, recover. If however, your intention for tonight is finish up uni work, watching TV will be viewed as a way that you procrastinate and avoid doing your work. Your perception of anything, then, is informed by your intentions.
Without intentions, anything that you do can seem pointless. I often have a never-ending list of assignments, but if I don't actively intend to do work, watching Youtube all night doesn't seem like a bad thingโafter all, it's not like I intended to do anything else with my time.
Why am I doing this challenge?
Lately I find myself moving through my daily routine rather mindlessly. I do a bit of schoolwork here, a bit of mindless scrolling there, but I don't really know why I'm doing these things. I have goals that I'm working towards, but they seem distant and unaffected by my day-to-day choices. In reality, though, the choices that I make every day are what determine whether I reach my goals, where I will be and what kind of person I am in five or ten or however many years. By setting intentions, I will make it clear what I should be doing and why it is important that I do it. The idea is that by merely logging my intentions and results over these 30days, I will subconsciously be predisposed to fulfil those intentions
I love these studyblr 100 days of productivity challenges, BUT I don't have enough motivation and self-discipline to do them, and I also don't want to fail them, because failure is extremely demotivating for me. So I came up with my own studyblr challenge. I'm gonna do 5 days of productivity. If I can do that, then I'll do 10 days, then 20, 50, and then finally 100. We'll see if I'm able to do that.
So starting tomorrow, I'm doing my own 5 days of productivity challenge :).
I also decided to give a more detailed description of my day here on Tumblr every evening.
Also, I set my screentime for Tiktok as 1 h 30 min, my overall screentime as 7 hrs, and my bedtime for 22.
I was originally planning to create a budget or something for sweets and treats I buy, but that would be too much changes for me, and also, I don't really have that big of a spending problem, so I'll deal with that later.
That's probably all I wanted to say, thank you for reading!
Holy shit I just wrote the same amount of words in ten minutes as I did during my 45 minute English essay

day twenty four: what are your thoughts on love?
i think sometimes we try to convince ourselves that it doesnt exist, or that we're better off without, and life can sometimes deny you that love that you deserve, but we all need it, and maybe its just a little love that will get you through the day. i hope its everywhere.
that question was really deep lmao
we were doing olive harvesting today so i didnt get to do much work today, ill try do more tomorrow
january 4, 2023 // omnia vincit aequatio challenge day 1
Still struggling with actual output for the paper I'm writing, and I had a horrible night's sleep, but at least I built myself some sort of a structure today and I'm hopeful I can improve based on that.
โข did some literature research and skimmed a paper
โข had a nice & cozy breakfast in bed as well as yummy pasta later
โข was still very sore from the gym the previous day so I went for a walk with my roommate
โข read two chapters in a new book, wrote some studyblr stuff hehe
โข watched some episodes of Elementary, also organized my jewelry and found nice rings I had forgotten about

Day 17: What is your favorite thing about having a studyblr blog?
to share my educational journey with anyone who's interested and inspired them to create their own Studyblr also it's like you're own little study journal/archive
Taking it chill today, as I know this half term is going to be hard (I always find the darker months more challenging) but did do something so feeling happy about that!
Day 10, 11 and 12
I only created my account in September in hopes that it would motivate me to keep working, and it does help when I just need that little push to get started.
The picture above shows my study space ๐
The last person I held hands with was my best friend, her love language is physical touch, so I try to show her affection in that way (with her consent)
Getting in on the Southern Hemisphere Spring Challenge! ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ
Let's get started! How is your semester going?
It's going good so far! I'm lagging behind a little, but I've got a week left to catch up with everything, so with a little struggle I'll be able to manage it!
my nuclei and particle class notes, we started feynman structures this week. also I've decided to do caramelcuppaccino's autumn studying challenge :) I'm gonna do it every other day (2 questions each post) though because I dont have the time to post everyday~
day 1: whats my major? astrophysics!
day 2: goals for this challenge? I want to be more active on this acc as well as just having fun being motivated by other studyblrs to get my work finished more quickly. my aesthetic is not the typical minimalistic one, much more cluttered and cozy so I want to show that through my posts
This challenge initially started as something I wanted to do for myself because I love February vibes โ plus I love challenges... even if I don't stick to them all the time hehe. But hey, I love to be extra so I made an info sheet/post thingy! Yay~! I thought it would be fantastic to share and invite anyone interested to join in~! Or just watch me do the challenge... :p
As a Christian, I love exploring the deeper meanings behind celebrations. That's why I'm aiming to dedicate at least one of the projects to the two priests named Valentine~!
reflection: in case you couldnโt tell, an intentions went down in flames today. but its okay, it rly is because the consistency of last week gave us a little bit of a safety net
as the holidays approach and (hopefully) academics start to wind down for a bit, i thought iโd create this mini-challenge to highlight the little things you can do to recharge. there arenโt any rules, other than iโd love to see if you participate, so please tag me in any progress posts (#heypeachblossom)! there also isnโt a set timeframe - iโll be trying to do at least one a day from when i get home from uni next weekend, but you can participate in this any time you want.
some ideas for each of the prompts under the cut <3
curl up with a book ; this is pretty self-explanatory - find a cosy space to sit with your current read (without distractions!) and allow yourself time to do nothing but dive into its pages
tidy your space ; this could be a big clearout or just a little spruce up. maybe set yourself a timer, and try to do as much dusting/organising/decorating as possible. a tidy space always helps with both productivity and relaxation
share a meal with someone ; sharing a meal is such a lovely, intimate way to bond with someone. you could cook a meal for your family, go out to lunch with a friend, eat together over facetime if your loved ones are far away
do something with your hands ; i always find crafting or making something grounding - my thing is crochet, but you could knit, sculpt, paint, draw, sew or anything in between
free space ; this is a place for you to add anything youโve done towards productive self-care - this could be journalling, trying a new hot drink, listening to carollers if youโre in a festive mood - there are so many options!
spend some time in nature ; vitamin d is important, and itโs even harder to get in winter. for me spending time in nature is truly peacful and healing. this could be as simple as going on a walk around your neighbourhood, or finding a public park/garden to visit. if you want to go further afield, you could go for a hike out in the countryside.
bake a sweet treat ; baking is another great, grounding thing to do, and having something sweet to munch on at the end of it is even better! some of my favourite things to make are banana bread, shortbread biscuits and chocolate truffles. if youโre not a baking person, you could cook you favourite comfort recipe
do a chore without distraction ; if youโre anything like me, youโre the kind of person whoโs always listening to a podcast or watching tv while doing chores such as folding washing, hoovering rooms or ironing clothes. take a step back for a while to be present with the task youโre doing and your thoughts. this could be a quick clean of the kitchen, or dusting around the house, or any number of little chores that need to get done
go to bed early ; this is also self-explanatory, but worth putting on here. if you find yourself always ending up going to bed later than intended, set aside a night to snuggle down and go to bed a little earlier.
I didn't get much work done today, but at least I tried! Honestly, maybe I tried a little too much. Since I couldn't focus on my homework and reading, maybe I should've let myself do something else instead of trying to work for hours on end. Sometimes just stepping away from something and doing something else can help a lot with productivity. I guess I'm just scared about never returning to my work and therefore getting less done than I would if I just kept trying. It's a difficult thing to figure out.
