"One of the most prevalent obstacles in our ability to heal and self-actualise is when our productivity is tied to our worthiness."

I think the studyblr community especially needs to hear this. You don't have to be productive all the time, you need rest. Recovering from internalised capitalism means unpicking all the messages from family, friends, school and workplace that have reinforced the idea that you are a commodity, and that your worth is based on what you do. Your worth is inherent.

September: Book of Water 💧

This is going to be the first of my Avatar: The Last Airbender themed Bujo spreads. Can you find all the references?

If you like them and want to recreate any spread, please tag me on your post, I would love to see them 💙

I'm going to accidentally summon a demon or curse myself because I like the Aesthetic™️

I super understand the desire to see the elaborately decorated stuff and go "ah, a NT" but the sticker covered monstrosities are what actually get me to remember to use my notebook/planner thing, if I don't spend three hours on a Sunday making it look like unicorn vomit, it may as well not exist.

Also, I do believe r/bujo is the subreddit focused on the original intent while the other bullet journal subreddits allow for some of the more art-focused ones if that helps anyone find the community they're looking for.

i promise i’m not shitting on people who do elaborate bullet journal spreads (i’m v jealous)

but it’s kind of funny how a system designed to be as pared down and flexible a form of journaling/planner-keeping as possible (for adhd-brains that need to write down everything and sort it out later), has instead become known for elaborate pre-planned static pages that require a certain amount of consistency on the part of the user

Cute wall tiles from Target that I finally hung up! 💕

reminder that yearly goals are achieved by setting monthly goals that are achieved by setting weekly goals. Achieving your major goals comes through progress and setting smaller, challenging but achievable goals that leads to getting through those major goals. This helps make those major, daunting goals less daunting, having step by step for yourself to achieve whatever you want.

Friendly reminder: when people say ‘as long as you tried your best’ it doesn’t mean ‘the best you could possibly have done ever’ it means ‘the best you were capable of at the time.’ Sometimes ‘trying your best’ is just getting out of bed in the morning. Just because you weren’t working yourself to the bone doesn’t mean you weren’t trying your best.

I just do not get it. Why do planners always give the smallest amount of space to Saturday and Sunday? Like those are the days I do things?

Stop over-apologizing at work.

Super ready to journal! Now all I need is to figure out wtf I want to do with ALL THESE BLANK PAGES.

I found this quote in Dutch and just had to translate it so I could share it.
