As someone with potential self-discipline and motivation issues, I find the task of the “100 Days of Productivity” challenge quite daunting, so I wanted to create something that would not only work for me (and people like me), but make me feel good about studying/learning new things/being productive. Hence:

The “10 Weeks of Productivity” challenge!

With the way my college -and usual weekly- timetable works, I often can’t find time to be “productive” outside of lessons towards the end of the week, and especially into the weekend - so this challenge doesn’t require 100 straight days of productivity, but instead productivity for 4+ days of the week, for 10 weeks in a row. This will hopefully help bolster my motivation to get on top of my college work, and help me to sort my life out a bit.

If you’d like to join in, please feel free! I’ll be using the #10-weeks-of-productivity tag when I post, so it’s easy to find :)

Productivity can be defined in any way you want it to be - for me, it’s sitting down at the dining table and completing a task, or an essay, or a set of notes on a topic for college, because that’s how college has conditioned me to think of productivity. However, it could be anything! Watching a TV show/film in a target language, going to the gym, getting groceries, catching up with a friend, even just achieving your daily goal on Duolingo - if it gives you a sense of accomplishment, then almost anything can be productive.

This is something that I’ve been thinking about for a while, and it could potentially be used as a stepping stone to the 100 Days of Productivity challenge, but we’ll have to see how well this goes for now before we leap on ahead to that. I’d love to be more productive throughout the week, and feel like I’ve achieved something at the end of each week when I look back, and this is a great way to start.
