Tea and fidget toys all the ways !

In more details, I try to do as many mindful moment as I can while breathing or drinking tea. The goals is to have little pocket of quiet and me-time. I also work with a fidget toy (my preferred is a fidget cube) in my other hand so I can make noise and be frustrated as I want on one side so the main side can be delicate or what I need it to be. I also tend to do many todo-list in the start of any intense session, just so I can quieten a little my mind and work in more peace.

In more self-care moment, when I'm stressed I try to take better care of my skin (because if I do not, I look like grating cheese). I don't like to take care of myself, but I will do it.

Here's my fidget toys (the picture is missing a rainbow slinky). The Simon don't have any battery, it's just the button. The strange thing in the middle is a astronomy ring. And each little egg have different things inside (sand, rocks, rubber rocks et caetera) so they have different weight and make different noises. And I have another big fidget cube in my handbag, for the case that I'm not home.

Depend on what task exactly. For everyday tasks managing, I use my bullet journal in my notebook. For my SMART goals of the week, I use a post on GKeep. For my projects, I use Trello and sometime Notion.

But, I find checklist to be the best working way for me. Even if I use ref, I make a list in front of it. I try to check on them regularly and update them at the start of a session of work on it, just to see where am I in the project and if I've changed the path with what I've already done.

My Study Area

The first pic is what it looks before a session and the second one is what it looks after some hours .

My motto for my study area is to have as much convenience as possible . I like my things within a hand's reach .

The major part of my study is my study table . I really love it . It has a huge area and is movable . I get bored easily so having a movable study table really helps . I sometimes shift it to my bed when I don't have the chair energy .

I also really like my lamp . Its specially useful when I really want the background to blur and just concentrate on my books . Also sometimes my eyes cant bear the brightness of a tube light so having a lamp which doesn't glare at me really helps .

The candle is my new whim - whim of the month .I get very easily completely engrossed by new stuff pretty easily . Earlier I used to ignore it but these days I just go with the flow . I try not to resist stuff which I really like , keeps life easy .

Also op I am really thrilled with the idea of this 30nym challenge .

My main goal for this 30nym challenge

I'm reading the Silmarillon both for myself (it's only the second time, but the first time I had read it really fast to be able to fill a plotholes in my fanfic) and for the challenge. I love the way Tolkien fill his universe and made a whole world creation lore, but ohmycat is it not a fun things to read back to back. One chapter a day make it manageable, at the least.

Blackwater is a fun reading I have on the side, I don't read it fast because I read a lot of fanfiction on the side, but I love the way things move fast and we can follow how the town evolve. There's so much racism at time that make it hard to not stop to read at time, thought.

Ideal ? In a world where everyday I can follow my simple routine and have each day a stable stamina ? Like that :

In reality, my study plan look more like that :

And even just that is a struggle for the moment. Job search and fine art are going well. Print design I'm more doing 30min per week (it's already that) and LSF ? I only do small daily review while I want to learn more. So, it's still a work in progress.

First, I'm not a minimalist. Not at all. Second, it's my desk in its truest : messy and not tidy at all. But as long as I can work on it, I'm fine with this state.

I also work a lot at my art atelier, because there's a lot of available spaces : desks in the main room, desks in the calm room and cozy seatings in the reading room ...

I work from my home computer mainly, but a lot on my tablet too. It really depend on what the task is (and where I am).

Finish my 30 days of Langue des Signes Françaises Learning challenge

Finish my Silmarillon reading (and do my Anki nerdy cards about it)

Have one (1) perfect day on my tracking goals calendar

I wish I could make a good routine for my self-study, but my focus is less on that for the moment. So, it's a goal, but not one of the main ones. In my side-goals, I also need to finish the font for my art atelier, make a post-it about my Tea discovery workshop that I will do next month hopefully, finish my tea fanzine and find a more satisfactory rhythm for my days.
