imagine having the ability to fully express yourself exactly the way you want it in a writing and it turns out beautifully written and well-articulated
i cant relate, must be a good feeling.

i’ve been really productive the past few months, which is actually quite rare for me bc i’m a slave to procrastination i get burnt out v easily. this time was a little different, i managed to keep my productivity levels really high for a whole 2 months all the way until exams ended, studying every single day without fail, around 10 hours a day, when i used to only do an average of 3 or 4. so here’s what worked for me and what didn’t!
what works: schedule your day
what happens when ur a virgo studyblr? u plan. i would write out everything i needed to accomplish for the day, the night before, and be really specific about it. i would then plug in the timings, this works for me, but u can choose to put the time in first and plan what u want to do around the time.
a structured time plan pressures me and i end up getting everything done, especially when i set an alarm on my phone for all the timings!
what does not: cramming a lot of hours into a day
12+ hour work days are ideal, especially when u watch all the ‘study with me: 14 hour work day!’ youtube videos, but they are just tedious and unreasonable.
let’s face it, even if u do complete one or two long study days, ur just gonna get bored and tired and have no mood to continuing this for a week or more. slow and steady wins the race!
what works: tweaking the pomodoro technique
i hate the pomodoro method. at the 25 minute mark, i’m normally on a roll and super focused on the task; and the 5 minute breaks were too short for me to actually take a break.
that’s why i tweaked it to 45-minute study sessions with 10-minute breaks, and after 3 study sessions, a 30-minute break. longer study sessions meant i get a break when i really start to get restless, and longer breaks gave me more time to recharge. i suggest tweaking this to match what works for you.
what does not work; doing too many / too little subjects a day
1. u don’t want to cram all the same topics and subjects into one day. ultimately, it’s a choice of spending 8 hours solely on a subject / topic and not touching it for the next few days / weeks, OR doing just 2 or 3 hours of one subject / topic each day over a few days / week
2. just thinking about doing only one subject for a whole day already tires me out. i have tried it, but normally i get so sick and tired of it that after a few hours, i can’t bring myself to focus on it any longer. on the contrary, if i keep switching between subjects, i get super confused because i have to remember too much of very different info.
what works: leaving the last portion of your day ambiguous
i like to start and end my days early. but in the process, i found a benefit of ending them early: i end up w a chunk of time at the end where there are two scenarios:
i’m super motivated and want to continue studying
i’m rly tired and cannot bring myself to continue bc i need a break !1!!
surprisingly, option 1 does happen a lot. and i think this is a rly good work-life balance. u don’t get burnt out easily, but from time to time, u get a bonus extra few hours of work done!
what does not work: forgoing sleep
sleep is so important omg. 3 hours of studying while sleepy = 1 hour of studying when ur refreshed and ur brain’s working. a tired mind is a slow mind, and an awake mind is a fast mind!
do not worry about that rly hard chapter that u must understand and complete! ur mind continue to works even when ur sleeping, i assume bc it’s rewiring and sorting through new information. after waking up, i find myself being able to better remember and understand information that i struggled on the night before!
what works: finding out ur energy levels and use it to ur advantage
some people work best at 6am and can’t focus after 9pm, some people can’t focus before 11am and work best at midnight. take note of and chart ur energy levels throughout the day for about a week or so, are u particularly refreshed in the morning? do u feel urself always dozing off at 4? are u the most productive at night?
work ur body clock out and work around it! every body functions differently! like in the last point, 3 hours of studying at ur worst energy levels = 1 hour of studying at ur peak energy level! forcing urself to work when ur body refuses to do so will only lead to procrastination.
i sincerely hope these few tips can help u out w being productive! what are some of the things u do to get shit done?

I don’t know anymore
I feel so down, frustrated, annoyed, worried, stressed, terrified and nervous. Why am I like this? I’m doing more than I usually would, is it working? Why is it not enough? It’s so overwhelming and it’s all my fault.
I tried thinking positively. I still have hope inside me. I do believe and have faith in god, though ocassionally I doubt it. I know he’s always there to guide me. All will be good as he leads me the right way. I just need to keep believing. Continue to have faith and never lose hope. I can do it. Yes, it’s possible. Miracles do happen. He can make it possible as long as I continue working my butt off. Yes I need to believe that. Amen🙏🏻

:’(
I wanna bawl my eyes out. IM SO STRESSED. I wanna cry so badly. But I don’t want to be called freaking weak and such a big baby over this. TO ME IT IS DARN RIGHT A BIG DEAL. I know I could’ve studied consistently. I know I wasn’t disciplined enough to do my work everyday. I predicted this before since I knew myself. But I reallyy want to do well😭 there’s so little time left. Ahh I hate myself:((

Study tip:
If you don’t have any motivation left, think about your favourite nerdy character doing research/studying and channel their motivation

kudos to you for posting this!!🙌
study motivation
Fa Mulan: I mean she saved China at such a young age and she makes me feel like I need to do something.
Rory Gilmore at Season 1-3: She likes to read and organize her life well. She can have free time but first, she needs to devote time to her studies.
Elle Woods: This movie might be a little unrealistic but when I watch the clip on youtube when she said that “I’ll show you how valuable Elle Woods can be.” She became my role model because she doesn’t have to abandon her feminine side to have good grades.
Paris Geller: She is intense and sometimes I understand why. She wants to graduate and go to Harvard and do all the things that she wants to do. One of the quotes of Paris Geller that I don’t forget is “No man is an island but this woman is.”
Mizutani Shizuku (Tonari no Kaibutsu-Kun)- Most of the people don’t know her but she is one that kept me studying even I want to sleep, watch Netflix and do the things that I want to do. There is one situation in this anime where she was kidnapped by students and then she still studies! I mean how? She organizes her father’s store and always giving her 100 percent for studying.
