The Observing Self

an introduction to one of my study secrets <3

i find that one of my biggest struggles in school is staying motivated enough to do my work, so i’ve decided to share my way of trying to keep myself disciplined. this is a HIGHLY underrated method and for some reason is rarely talked about in study spaces??

”the point system” is a method i use to make sure i don’t lose motivation and stop doing my work in school. basically the idea is that i gain ”points” by studying, doing homework etc, and i can then spend these points on ”rewards” such as screen time, shopping etc. i can also lose points if i mess up something related to my studies. i’m supposed to keep the amount of points i have above 0 at all times, but sometimes i might go into the negatives on accident (example: getting a bad grade i wasn’t expecting). i then need to endure a punishment, which in my case is that i can’t do any of the things i consider rewards on the point system until i reach 300 points

if you want to use a point system, you’ll probably need to come up with personal activities that you can gain/lose points from. i’ve written down my own system as an example here<3

gaining points

attending a lesson and paying attention: +5p

taking notes in class: +10p

finishing all homework (for 1 subject): +10p

studying: +20p/hour

getting 100% on an exam: +50p

reading a book related to my studies: +50p

spending/losing points

screen time: -20p/hour

spending money: -5p/every € i spend

going out with friends: -10p/hour

drinking: -20p/drink

getting less than 90% on an exam: -50p

being late for school: -10p

I'm surprised I didn't make posts about it or maybe I did and I don't remember. If you're following me for a long time and saw my other meditation posts, please don't come for me for being repetitive. I make posts on demand and if people demand I talk about it I'll gladly do that 😝

yes I've been into meditation since I was a middle schooler and I'm gonna tell you the easiest most foolproof, direct and essence of this thing.

1- first thing first u must be comfortable. Wear clothes that make you comfortable, arrange ur surroundings accordingly, try to find a quiet time when you're physically comfortable. Before you ask, can you meditate with chronic pain? Honestly I'd like the answer to be YES all the time no matter what but I'm telling you it requires some serious dedication to ignore your body's pain receptors and focus on your breathe, on your mind etc I don't wanna put limitations on you tho! So yes but don't push yourself too hard or blame yourself if it doesn't turn out as you want. Anyways.

2- when you're really comfortable, you can start to work inwards because what we try to achieve is forgetting our bodily, physical limitations and reach a state of total freedom. Where our mind and soul freely wanders. And for that we need to put our body to sleep WHILE we stay awake as consciousness, awareness, ego, brain, whatever you call it.

3- once you're comfortable and you put an audio that put your body to sleep ( indicators are feeling numb, heavy, floating, spinning, phantom touches, hypnagogic sounds or visuals behind your eyes, etc) it means you're at the threshold where you can extract your true boundless self from your body. We call this state MABA (mind awake body asleep) or SATS (state akin to sleep).

4- you can use whatever you feel comfortable doing. Counting helps a lot for me, or imagining climbing stairs. IF YOUR HEAD IS LOUD AND YOU CAN'T FOCUS, THATS TOTALLY OKAY. Just keep counting/climbing the stairs until your whole body's asleep...

5- from this state, you can;

A) how to induce sleep paralysis and shift realities or manifest (Here's my post "Shortcuts for Shifting" I talked about the things I listed above shortly)

B) induce void state and manifest instantly by becoming your nude, pure awareness version without the walls of ego in your way. (Again my post about "my method" it's kind of similar to void.)

C) induce lucid dreaming and shift realities.

My meditation recommendations: first two are what I use the most and the third is basically mantra, you can use it to manifest (I manifested my laptop, academic success and lots of money and opportunities with it) or u can use it to shift. Very effective. :)

I. You will feel better in no time

Even without the law of assumption roped into it, this is the best way for you to get out of your slump, or even just boost your confidence/self concept.

How would the version of yourself that is and has everything they’ve always wanted to be and have, act? How would they feel? Would they worry all the time about how to change their circumstances?

Of course not, because their life is ideal, and they love the person they are, so they just enjoy it.

So even if you believe you can’t do anything about your unwanted circumstances, why not feel your best! If it’s not gonna change anything, why not live in your imagination living your best life?

It can feel silly as first, but I promise you it’ll become normal in no time, especially because this version of you is the person you are meant to be.

II. Your desires will show up faster than ever

You probably already know by now that state is the only thing that matters, not random thoughts, not 10 minutes methods you do every night, but what you accept as truth about yourself and your reality most of the time. This is why if you thing of yourself as a loser who will never get what they want no matter what, it all feels pointless and never seems to work..

By embodying the version of yourself that is living in their ideal reality, you become it, and everything around you is going to change FAST.

Without even doing anything else (whether it’d be methods or actions towards your goals), things will just rearrange themselves for your benefit, you will wake up one day in your ideal reality. But only when you have accepted as truth that you already live in it. (Remember than imagination is as real as any way to experience reality).

III. It will all feel natural

You won’t have to trick yourself into thinking about things you don’t believe, you will just think naturally about what you have accepted as your reality. And when you wake up with the 3D having caught up to your inner reality, you’ll know how to act, because you would have been acting “as if” before.

Accept that your dreams are yours from the beginning, the instant you imagine them and desire them, they are true in your 4D, and the 3D has no choice but to follow. Only you must not return to the state of lack by telling yourself it’s only an unreachable dream. How can it be unreachable when the furthest it can be is in your own mind? It’s right there only waiting for you to declare it yours.

July 29th, 2026. Wednesday. || Moving forward!

I can tell that I'm in a bit of a depressive cycle of my bipolar, but hey, I'm getting things done anyway!

Two very critical job interviews are tomorrow, so I'm psyching myself up for that currently. I need to do well at at least one. Send good luck my way!

What I accomplished:

The guidelines are as follows:

Compile your August goals into one post and mark each item as desired upon completion. You may be as vague or detailed as you wish. It only needs to serve yourself.

Tag all relevant posts with #august days of productivity, that way we can more easily support each other and make this feel like a community challenge.

Starting 1st August, do one thing every day, however small, to bring yourself closer to your goals.

Regular updates are encouraged, whether they be daily, weekly, or just every so often, but what really matters is accomplishing the things we set out to do.

Enjoy the journey: you cannot "fail" as long as you are having fun!

On 31st August, we can reflect on the past month and congratulate ourselves for our dedication.

Additionally, I challenge each and every participant to actively contribute towards the community feeling by interacting with each other, beyond just leaving a like. Reblog, comment, congratulate, encourage. We are all busy and tired and stressed, and a kind word goes such a long way!

July 13

I got an offer to study Masters of Diagnostic Radiography :DDDD

I am feeling pretty elated

Life lately has been very harsh and, a summer that was supposed to be relaxing after a very intense semester, turned out to be even more stressful 🫠

you may not want to clean your room, but you like the peace and call it brings you after

you may not want to study, but you like the confidence and satisfaction you get from being prepared

you may not not want to apologise, but you like the relief and connection that reconciliation brings

you may not want to cook, but you like the satisfaction of eating a healthy come cooked meal prepared with love

you may not want to exercise, but you like how you feel afterwards and how it makes you confident

you may not want to journal or write, but you like the reflection and calm it brings you

you may not want to step out of your comfort zone, but you like the new experiences and growth you gain from it
