little things not to put off 🌻

Hi everyone! I thought I would make this little list because I think my life would be a little more productive if I were reminded of these little things. This may not be very helpful to others or come off as random but I hope this helps. It’s my first time doing something like this so I hope it isn’t awful! 

Don’t put off…

-Showering & washing your hair I know sometimes when you’re just so exhausted and lazy and you have so much to do you just put off showering… go take a shower and wash up, it’ll be really worth it -Filling up your drink bottle  Personally, the closest water dispenser for me is like outside my dorm room in the common area, and sometimes I don’t want to go out! But! Seriously, don’t put off water ever, and bring a big jug, fill it up too -Cleaning up your work space I know you might want to continue tomorrow, but just take a quick minute to tidy everything up, close your books, straighten your items, you’ll feel much fresher starting work on a clean space. Also, clear your bin as often as you can. -Doing your assignments and revision Seriously, don’t putt of work until the last minute, that sucks. At least come up with a draft to work off of, and revise when you have time! Don’t keep putting it off! You can do this!  -Making a call/answering messages If you’re more introverted like me, calling people might just sound absolutely exhausting and tiring. But personally, I get kind of restless when I know I have a call to make, or a message to reply; so if you have someone important o call (lecturer, classmate, etc), get it out of the way. It’ll be fine. -Eating your meal (before it’s too late) Sometimes when I’m not too hungry yet, I put off eating or ordering food, but seriously, eat during mealtimes, or make sure you have food in your room. Once I got really hungry at 11 pm because I skipped dinner, and there weren’t exactly stores open, and I had no food, and no car, so I was just… really hungry. It’s not fun. Especially when you have a test and your stomach’s just growling. -Making your bed It really just helps you feel more productive and getting it done.  -Brushing your teeth Fresh mouth, fresh mind. It just really makes you feel a lot fresher -Morning routines and night routines If you don’t have one, establish one. When you wake up, getting all that done will make you feel like the day has started. For me, I change out of my PJs, do my makeup, draw the curtains. Some people work out, go for a jog, or have coffee. Wake up, turn on the lights, get it on! And at night it helps you sleep and get into your nighttime mood too!  -Starting something new It can be a new studying habit, a new diet, a new exercise, a new skill you want to learn; don’t put it off and say things like, “I’ll start next month!” Start it now! You can do it! This includes stopping old habits too! -Confrontation I know this can is kinda like different strokes for different folks, but what I mean is: if you have something that’s pent up inside you, like a disagreement with a friend or anyone, you should really just get it over with, talk to them about it, express your opinions honestly and respectfully. I feel like this gets stuff off your chest and if you’re like me, I hate leaving things unresolved. So. Yes. Take this however you will, but I just think you should confront someone you have a disagreement with before it gets too late, or just to give yourself a little more peace of mind. Take it from me, oftentimes, the worst case scenario is really just in your head and things go better than you would expect! 

So this is all I have right now, but I hope at least a small bit helped anyone at all! Thank you if you read all of this! Positive vibes to everyone  ✨
