Hi guys! welcome back! sorry for not being very active at Tumblr but now that I am back due to this start of our vacations, I am bringing to you this post. this post, I hope, is especially applicable right now because no one is really in a study-mood. but on the second thought, well, you are back to the grim reality

study repellant causes and how to deal with them:

you might be tired- it is pretty natural that school might have whacked the life out of you. here serves the main purpose of our good old long-awaited ‘hols’. now you can take your time to take some decent rest. maybe school has tired you out not just because of studies but perhaps some other causes too. so take your time and breath

burn out- of course, studying for a long time has consumed all our energy. to revive it:

take a shower to loosen your nerves. it also helps you focus, especially a cold one as it wakes you up as well

journalling helps you passively to let your emotions or pent up feelings out

cry out or talk to someone. crying out deliberately doesn’t work always because sometimes situations,might be so bad that you don’t even feel like crying (i dont know if that’s just me or if it makes any sense at all).

 talking always helps beacsue you are letting the pressure out of you. at that moment, you will feel like a shook coke bottle ready to explode on opening the cap.

spend some time on youtube. (watch lily singh’s vids. those cheer me up. you can find others as well, but this is the best i guess. recommend any similar youtubers down below please haha). or you may also watch those cute puppy videos?

spend sometime with your pet if you have any…(those cuties)

spend sometime outside. dress comfortably and stroll around with lofi or a happy song on. no sad beats or those songs which remind you of someone you miss are permitted

you may have exhausted your productivity fuel, aka it’s the time when your brain can’t handle any more of studying or any hardcore work at that time. so take a break for that day (internally feeling sorry for people like me who, even though they want to take brek can’t help but work on due to last moment project/assignment completion and stuff. happens)

you might as well be ill. but if you desperately need to study for that test or work on that due assignment, make yourself cofortable. curl up in a blanket with a cup of herbal tea, a bax of tissue paper, all your necessary supplies and emergrncy pills and stuff

your motivation level is down to zero. i personally believe (man, this statement makes me feel like some superstar giving an interview hehe) that celebrating little victories and watching studytubers’ videos can always keep up the motivarion level so that it doesn’t run out..

you might be on your periods (if you’re a girl or transgender). you need some serious drinking to do. (not that one,doh). some hot chocolate, even any non-caffeinated chocolates will work. you can use a warm press if cramps hit you. basically, the same steps as mentioned in the “you being sick” part can be effectively repeated.

how to deal with these repellant causes:

if you have been dealing with one or some of these repellant causes, a reset day, which preferably has to after those stressful days. here is an example of reset day. on such days, you should take it easy, or basically do nothing at all, except for pampering yourself. here’s how I once did it:

(story time??)I came back from school, had a light lunch and cleaned my desk and all of my room in general. I took a nice and warm shower in the dark while listening to R&B songs on Spotify, read a book while I drifted off to a light afternoon nap. soon after I woke up, I changed into my PJs and started to get some work done, I mean the stuff that I genuinely enjoyed. and so it rolled for about a couple of hours or so. I really wasn’t forcing myself to study which was why I was in PJs. eventually, i had a dinner, another warm shower, got some digital stuff done, read the book and sank into a deep sleep (and as for my night routine, uh no, my skincare routine is concerned, I don’t have any because for now, my skin is okayish hehe..so don’t come at me).

Back again with a blog post on how to make most out of your mornings. Keep reading. Enjoy.

1. Wake up early

The first and the most obvious thing you should do to give a fresh and productive start to your day is to wake up early. Those few hours which you save are a huge plus point. It gives you adequate time to prepare yourself for your mornings. It’s true that not everyone is a morning lark, but getting up before the others and finishing trivial work before the others were up and starting creating node is an accomplishment in itself. I personally feel that wading up early makes me don’t more work.

2. Make your bed and open the blinds

Making your bed gives you a feeling of accomplishment. It might seem too small but starting your day by making your bed gives you a sense of pride. You feel organised and ready to take on the day. More over it encourages you to keep the rest of your room tidy. Once you are in the habit of making your bed you will likely feel inspired to improve your bedroom’s appearance in other ways even if they are small.

3. Wash your face

As soon as you wake up and are done with making your bed, immediately ho to the bathroom and splash sold cold water on your face. It makes you feel less sleepy and you are less likely to resume sleeping.

4. Make coffee/tea and see your plans for the day

I highly recommend you to plan out your mornings the night before. It saves you precious will power in the morning which could be used in other important tasks. While making yourself a cup of tea or coffee, skim through your schedule, just to remind you what all is due for the morning.

5. Workout/Do yoga

Obviously, this keeps you fit. Everyone knows. But how many actually do this? It is important to keep yourself fit. Try to squeeze at least 10 - 15 minutes of yoga or exercise in your morning routine. If you are unable to do it in the morning, do it in the evening, but DO IT. The main idea is to put your limbs into action.

6. Stay away from your phone

We all know, when it comes to distractions, phone is the one which comes at the top. Reaching for your phone immediately after you wake up wastes precious time in the morning. See, no one can keep you away from your phone. You and only you can do it. Believe me, your future self would be thankful to you. What is more important - that Instagram like your career? You can use apps like Forest and Flipd to help you focus effectively.

7. Eat a nutritious breakfast

I cannot stop telling everybody is the importance of having a good and nutritious breakfast. It makes you energized and the power to do more work. Eating breakfast improves concentration and memory throughout the day. Studies show that children and adolescents who eat a healthy breakfast are more proficient at problem-solving and tend to have better eye-hand coordination.There is evidence that eating breakfast helps control hunger, so you are less likely to binge during lunch or dinner.

Finally, you have reached the end of the post of how to make your mornings productive. Comment down below if you liked this.

april 14, 2019. 

I’m finally on spring break and it’s been quite nice so far and I’m so happy for making it through last week with all of those tests! Speaking of which, here’s some notes that I took on The Great Gatsby for the AP English test that I took! I think it’s safe to say that I definitely have very strong opinions of this book.
