uni tips?

okay i will give you some quick (and a bit chaotic) survival tips but if you guys want i can make some more uni/school related blog posts haha

do not let work pile up. it sounds obvious until you’re surrounded by half-read pdfs and five tabs titled “plato republic book 4 summary.” work everyday. this is what uni is all about.

 romanticise it, even if it sucks. light a candle. make tea. put on a silly little playlist called “studying in an 18th century library while it rains.” trick yourself into caring hahaha.

take notes in a way that makes sense to you. not for aesthetics, not for tiktok, not for anyone else. index cards, voice memos, annotated readings, whatever gets it to stick.

go to office hours. you don’t need a reason. say hi. ask a weird question. get on their radar in a cute way.

back. up. your. work. google drive. dropbox. email drafts. carve it into stone tablets if you must. just don’t lose your 5k word essay to a USB named “chaosdriveFINALfinal” or a sea of files titled “aieurifhnapwiehfnprif_2(1).docx”

sleep. no really. sleep. nothing is worth the week-long emotional collapse that follows an all-nighter. (this is good advice but i dont follow it, maybe i should, but my grades are too good rn lol)

do the readings. please. just do them. the books, the PDFs, the weird JSTOR scans from 2003. TRUST MEE.

How easy is it to fudge your scientific rank? Meet Larry, the world’s most cited cat

-Christie Wilcox

Reposting whole text cos paywall:

Larry Richardson appeared to be an early-career mathematician with potential. According to Google Scholar, he’d authored a dozen papers on topics ranging from complex algebras to the structure of mathematical objects, racking up more than 130 citations in 4 years. It would all be rather remarkable—if the studies weren’t complete gibberish. And Larry wasn’t a cat.

“It was an exercise in absurdity,” says Reese Richardson, a graduate student in metascience and computational biology at Northwestern University. Earlier this month, he and fellow research misconduct sleuth Nick Wise at the University of Cambridge cooked up Larry’s profile and engineered the feline’s scientific ascent. Their goal: to make him the world’s most highly cited cat by mimicking a tactic apparently employed by a citation-boosting service advertised on Facebook. In just 2 short weeks, the duo accomplished its mission.

The stunt will hopefully draw awareness to the growing issue of the manipulation of research metrics, says Peter Lange, a higher education consultant and emeritus professor of political science at Duke University. “I think most faculty members at the institutions I know are not even aware of such citation mills.”

As a general rule, the more a scientific paper is cited by other studies, the more important it and its authors are in a field. One shorthand is the popular “h-index”: An h-index of 10 means a person has 10 papers with at least 10 citations each, for instance.

Inflating a researcher’s citation count and h-index gives them “a tremendous advantage” in hiring and tenure decisions says Jennifer Byrne, a cancer researcher at the University of Sydney. It also drives the business model of shady organizations that promise to boost your citations in exchange for cash. “If you can just buy citations,” Byrne says, “you’re buying influence.”

Enter Larry the cat. His tale began a few weeks ago, when Wise saw a Facebook ad offering “citation & h-index boosting.” It wasn’t the first promo he and Richardson had seen for such services. (The going rate seems to be about $10 per citation.) But this one linked to screenshots of Google Scholar profiles of real scientists. That meant the duo could see just which citations were driving up the numbers.

The citations, it turned out, often belonged to papers full of nonsense text authored by long-dead mathematicians such as Pythagoras. The studies had been uploaded as PDFs to the academic social platform ResearchGate and then subsequently deleted, obscuring their nature. (Wise and Richardson had to dig into Google’s cache to read the documents.) “We were like, ‘Wow, this procedure is incredibly easy,’” Richardson recalls. “All you have to do is put some fake papers on ResearchGate.”

It’s so easy, Wise noted at the time, that a quickly written script to pump out plausible-sounding papers could make anyone highly cited—even a cat. “I don’t know if he was being serious,” Richardson says. “But I certainly took that as a challenge.” And he knew just the cat to beat: F.D.C. Willard. In 1975, theoretical physicist Jack Hetherington added his Siamese to one of his single-author papers so the references to “we” would make more sense. As of this year, “Felis Domesticus Chester Willard” has 107 citations.

To break that record, Richardson turned to his grandmother’s cat Larry. In about an hour he created 12 fake papers authored by Larry and 12 others that cited each of Larry’s works. That would amount to 12 papers with 12 citations each, for a total citation count of 144 and an h-index of 12. Richardson uploaded the manuscripts to a ResearchGate profile he created for the feline. Then, he and Wise waited for Google Scholar to automatically scrape the fake data.

On 17 July, Larry’s papers and 132 citations appeared on the site. (Google Scholar failed to catch one spurious study, Wise notes.) And, thus, Larry became the world’s most highly cited cat. “I asked Larry what his reaction was over the phone,” Richardson told Science. “I can only assume he was too stunned to speak.”

Although Larry’s profile might seem obviously fake, finding manipulated ones usually isn’t easy, says Talal Rahwan, a computer scientist at New York University Abu Dhabi. Earlier this year, he and Yasir Zaki, a computer scientist at the same institution, and their colleagues scanned more than 1 million Google Scholar profiles to look for anomalous citation counts. They found at least 114 with “highly irregular citation patterns,” according to a paper posted in February on the arXiv preprint server. “The vast majority had at least some of their dubious citations from ResearchGate,” Zaki says.

ResearchGate is “of course aware of the growing research integrity issues in the global research community,” says the company’s CEO, Ijad Madisch. “[We] are continually reviewing our policies and processes to ensure the best experience for our millions of researcher users.” In this case, he says, the company was unaware that citation mills delete content after indexing, apparently to cover their tracks—intel that may help ResearchGate develop better monitoring systems. “We appreciate Science reporting this particular situation to us and we will be using this report to review and adapt our processes as required.”

Google Scholar removed Larry’s citations about 1 week after they appeared, so he has lost his unofficial title. However, his profile still exists, and the dubious citations in the profiles that were in the advertisement remain. So, “They haven’t fixed the problem,” Wise says. Google Scholar did not respond to requests for comment.

It’s not the first time somebody has manipulated Google Scholar by posting fake papers. In 2010, Cyril Labbé, a computer scientist at Grenoble Alpes University, invented a researcher named Ike Antkare (“I can’t care”), and made him the sixth most cited computer scientist on the service by posting fake publications to Labbé institutional website. “Impersonating a fake scientist in a cat is very cute,” Labbé says. “If it can be done for a cat, it can easily be done for a real person.”

For that reason, many researchers would like to see less emphasis on h-index and other metrics that have “the undue glow of quantification,” as Lange puts it. As long as the benefits of manipulating these systems outweigh the risks and costs, Wise says, people are going to continue to try to hack them. “How can you create a metric that can’t be gamed? I’m sure the answer is: You can’t.”

ATTENTION HOMERIC EPIC FANS

I got Emily Wilson's translations of the Iliad and the Odyssey. I have the indexes as PDFs and I thought I would share them here, as they're pretty good sources of information

[voxxvindictae]

If I’m being honest, the most useful skill for hacking is learning to do research. And since Google’s search is going to shit, allow me to detail some of the methods I use to do OSINT and general research.

Google dorking is the use of advanced syntax to make incredibly fine-grained searches, potentially exposing information that wasn’t supposed to be on the internet:

Some of my go-to filters are as follows:

“Query” searches for documents that have at least one field containing the exact string.

site: allows for a specific site to be searched. See also inurl and intitle.

type: specifies the tor of resource to look for. Common examples are log files, PDFs, and the sitemap.xml file.

Metasearch engines (such as SearxNG) permit you to access results from several web-crawlers at once, including some for specialized databases. There are several public instances available, as well as some that work over tor, but you can also self-host your own.

IVRE is a self-hosted tool that allows you to create a database of host scans (when I say self-hosted, I mean that you can run this in a docker container on your laptop). This can be useful for finding things that search engines don’t show you, like how two servers are related, where a website lives, etc. I’ve used this tool before, in my investigation into the Canary Mission and its backers.

Spiderfoot is like IVRE, but for social networks. It is also a self-hosted database. I have also used this in the Canary Mission investigation.

Some miscellaneous websites/web tools I use:

SecurityTrails: look up DNS history for a domain

BugMeNot: shared logins for when creating an account is not in your best interest.

Shodan/Censys: you have to make an account for these, so I don’t usually recommend them.

OSINT framework: another useful index of tools for information gathering.

[kaurwreck]

Finally back to reading bsd and i've been wanting to know more about the irl!writers. Since i see that you know quite a lot about them, do you have some recommendation for that?

If you want specific recommendations, I'll need to know which authors. But, in general, I read a variety of materials: (i) translations of the irl!writers works (the prefaces, translators' notes, intros, and footnotes for which are often rife with information); (ii) biographies about the irl!writers; (iii) critical examinations of the irl!writers' bodies of work; (iv) essays and essay anthologies on modern Japanese literature; (v) texts on the culture, politics, ideologies, philosophies, and histories of the Meiji-Showa eras of Japan; (vi) relevant graduate theses, etc.

My favorite sources of information include JSTOR, University of Hawaii Press (which has a robust and super cheap On Sale selection), Harvard East Asian Monographs, and University of California Press.

The Nissan Institute/Routledge Japanese Studies has excellent titles, but they're prohibitively expensive, although you can sometimes find PDFs of individual essays from their titles online. If you're a student (or a nonstudent with friends who are students or professors), Proquest is a great resource, although I recommend using Google Scholar as an index to search Proquest.

If you're into podcasts and audio books, I also recommend The Meiji at 150, Read Japanese Literature, and The Great Courses: Understanding Japan.

Erotic Writing Commissions Open. BDSM, Bondage, Noncon fantasies of all kinds.

About me

I’ve been writing for twenty years and delivering high quality erotic content for about fourteen. My name’s Bronze and it’s a pleasure to meet you. I write erotica because I like it. Because I feel like it’s a good way to express yourself and because I don’t think it’s anything to be ashamed of. 

I write dark erotica because that’s what I enjoy. Noncon, BDSM, dubcon, humiliation and blackmail are all things that I’ve delivered on in the past for my clients. My specific focus is all things dark, and I’m not afraid to show tears, reluctance, and even pain.  

I guarantee no judgement, whatever you might ask me to do. I understand the difference between fantasy and reality. 

My History 

I’ve been a writer for twenty years. In that time, I’ve written a six year long web novel which enjoyed hundreds of readers per chapter. I’ve helped to write two visual novels, one NSFW and one SFW. I’ve been hired to do writing work for a classic-style video game, been hired to write and edit erotic audio scripts and have published numerous smashwords novels 

What I can write

My focus is on bondage, BDSM, humiliation, slavery, plot-driven, character driven, toys, reluctance, blackmail, noncon and especially degradation! I don’t shy away from dark or messed up fantasies as long as they stay fantasies, and I 100% don’t judge. I’ve done work in fantasy, sci-fi and contemporary settings.

I’ve worked on numerous stories ranging from short snippets of around 1000 words all the way to 70K word NSFW web novels. (included in the links section) 

I have never left a client unsatisfied. I have never delivered late. My work is high quality and I am confident in it. I have to be. This isn’t just a hobby - commissioned writing is how I make my living! 

So when I say to you that I can bring your fantasy to life? I’m not bullshitting and I’m not playing with words. I’m good enough at this to use it to pay the rent. 

Want proof? I’ll include links to a series of sample stories at the bottom of this post. 

What I won’t write. 

Underage of any kind. I won’t write snuff or outright gore (though, pain, body modification, rough sex, and violence is fine.) 

I can’t write scat - no judgement, I just don’t get it enough to make it sexy. I won’t write bestiality (but will happily write furry.) 

And that’s pretty much it. If you have something you’re not sure about, feel free to send me a chat message. I’ll be more than happy to answer. 

Timeframe and Rates 

I do orders in batches and that means that for an order of 6000+ words, you should expect to wait a maximum of about 4 weeks. I’ll try to deliver before that and I often do, but as I said, this is my living so I can’t really just do one commission at a time if I wanna pay the bills. 

My rate is £0.04 Great British Pounds per word, delivered via paypal. Half before work is started and half on delivery. For that price, you get the story, you get revisions, free edits, and also drafting and polishing. Basically, the whole works. 

Payment can be done via either paypal link or via invoice to your email depending on whether you want a record or not. 

Delivery

The default method of delivery is via a google doc link to your story, which you will be able to copy paste and do what you want with. If you prefer another method - email attachment PDF, what have you, let me know and I’ll be happy to accommodate you. Your story will not be publicly posted without permission, but if you want me to post it to my site or to reddit - credited to you as client - feel free to let me know. I’m always happy to expand my portfolio that way.

Testimonials

"I had a great time with the whole commission process. Bronze was very responsive and really helped fleshing out my ideas for the story. Very happy with the end result."

‘’Have a story stuck in your head and you need someone to snatch the words from your head and put it down onto a Word document? You won't find someone better than BronzePlaceWriter to do it for you. Of all the writers I've commissioned, no one has been more enthusiastic about bring my ideas to life than BronzePlaceWriter. None have cared about fleshing out the ideas I have or pointing out improvements besides BronzePlaceWriter who also possesses a truly stunning range of content that can be written. Have an idea for dark erotic between two co-workers? An epic fantasy story involving a taboo relationship? Want a story involving superheroes? BronzePlaceWriter has you covered. And yeah, the erotic content is amazing.’’

The Foolish Dictionary (An Exhausting Work of Reference to Un-certain English Words, Their Origin, Meaning, Legitimate and Illegitimate Use, Confused by a Few Pictures) by Gideon Wurdz (Charles Wayland Towne), with illustrations by Wallace Goldsmith, 1904.

At first glance I thought it was a ripoff of Ambrose Bierce's The Devil's Dictionary and -- yes and no, actually. Bierce started writing jocular definitions to words in newspaper columns in 1867, but he didn't begin compiling them into book form until 1905, thus the concept existed for 30 years prior to this book yet this book hit the racks two years before the first iteration [letters A-L] of Bierce's The Cynic's Word Book.

Comparison: Wurds gets right to the point, Bierce speaks a bit more pseudo-scholarly, so it's easier to get into The Foolish Dictionary.

An example from this book is:

ATHLETE: A dignified bunch of muscles, unable to split wood or sift the ashes."

You can find both yourself online -- Google Books has this tome as a PDF, and Project Gutenburg has some version of Bierce's book available with clickable indexing.

Need feedback for first release/minor updates

It's not what was planned as a "first release," but it seemed like the easiest adventure I've written to rework quickly into a publishable form. Of course, it took a lot longer as I kept finding things to alter or ideas to add! I need commentators and proofreaders. Any help you're willing to offer will get your name on the front page as a thanks. The module will be released for free once finalized. Anyone interested in reading through and offering suggestions, fixes, and so forth? Let me know! I'll send you a PDF or a link to a Google doc, your choice! So, please let me know if you'd like to check this out! Anything you want to help with or "contribute" will be appreciated!

A synopsis: a cavern and mine dating to prehistoric times, reputed to be haunted by a banshee, has led to death and suffering each time anyone has attempted to reclaim it. Now, goat-headed fomorians and other horrors are flocking to it to serve the dark being that has revealed itself. As their numbers swell, aided by a spying bandit cultist and his unwitting accomplices from town, the number and power of monsters in the area has increased, ruining trade and travel, yet due to a calamity in a nearby town, the influx of needy individuals has continued. This unfortunate situation is made the more sorrowful for the many desperate refugees that have been lost to the vicious creatures whose frequency and strength have grown. As if all this is not enough, the falling of a star has unleashed a terror from beyond. Trade, travel, and pilgrimages have been all but cut off; economic disaster looms as the number of needy continue to increase; cultists set traps, goblin tribes kidnap and enslave, something that fell from the sky devours all in its path, and all the while, fomorians gather together and plan for a war to retake the land that was once theirs.

In other news, I completed half of an "All the World's Monsters" readthrough entry, but gave it a rest to work on the adventure module I'm previewing here! Also because it was getting a bit frustrating as it became increasingly more difficult to review some of the atrocities in that book without being overly negative(they get real dumb, with about 10 "alignment: hungries" in a row!). Aside from that, since the posts I make here are a mixture of materials and general posts, I'm going to add an index to the website of the posts here that are actually relevant such as adventures, monsters, NPCs, graphics or anything else potentially useful for a GM, as opposed to the ones about kickstarters or whatnot. I'll index readthroughs there as well.

[granulesofsand]

Do you have sources for any of the things you've been talking about lately (the different programming types, hc-did, basically all of it)? I'd really like to do some more reading on this stuff but I've found a grand total of One book and most of the rest of the stuff is social media posts with no references, or references to other social media posts :(

Our top three “sources” are usually our system, late night conversations with irl friends, and social media.

The biggest issue isn’t actually a lack of resources, but a lack of good resources. Survivors put out material before they realize they got something wrong. The clinicians that work with us are the same, and the first generation of papers were shots in the dark and fear of lies that hadn’t been exposed yet.

There’ll be a lot about a big, networked Cult, usually either the Illuminati or Luciferians. Plenty of government conspiracy theories, references to projects that sometimes do get evidence. Then there’s the regular racism and Christian lens.

If you’re looking for overviews and definitions, they got taken down here are some good websites:

https://www.ra-free.org/complexities-of-identifying-ritual-abuse - not a lot of information, lists studies and professionals

https://endritualabuse.org/full-article-index/ - lots of good articles, some really helpful, others had me cocking my head

https://www.cherylrainfield.com/articles-cult-abuse/ - more about the author than the issue, some useful links on that page

There used to be more. Two others, one about spin programming and one about colors, are still up, but a little out there. You’ll know if you see them

Some books with more details. Not good books, just books:

https://ia803208.us.archive.org/34/items/BecomingYourself.Miller/BecomingYourself.Miller.pdf - the single best thing I’ve found and I still have complaints, this version is unformatted but free

https://ia803400.us.archive.org/28/items/chainless-slaves-annotated/Chainless%20Slaves%20-%20Annotated.pdf - I didn’t like it, lots of certain language for iffy concepts, has a list of programs and alter roles

https://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/document?repid=rep1&type=pdf&doi=89e823aedc9c69ffd8d715757c86878af27c37c9 - not a fan, also lots of funky ideas and hate-based rhetoric, has lists of programs and cues

There are lots of survivor autobiographies and outsider opinions, but I don’t have free links to those

Keep in mind that getting out of a high control group sucks ass, and most accounts (even if they claim to have healed) have the remnants of the abusive ideologies.

I still prefer hearing from other survivors what happened, and I find it easier to validate people I can easily contact. I’ll keep the webpage if I find anything I can’t just Google, but this is what I can pull right now.

It’s not great, buddy, but it’s something.

Author Ask Tag Game

Thanks for the tag, @tailoroffates!

I did this one for Spin Cylinder recently-ish so I'm going to do it for November Breaks, the first book featuring those characters...

(1) What is the main lesson of your story (e.g. kindness, diversity, anti-war), and why did you choose it?

No matter how profoundly fucked up and morally bankrupt you are, there's probably some other complete asshole out there who'll fall obsessively, toxically in love with you so you can do violence and destroy some lives together.

Brett and Noah are both successful, affluent, attractive, awful people who the world has never said no to. They literally get away with murder. So maybe there's a lesson in there?

I chose it because it was immensely fun to write about. I'm compulsively honest to the point where I annoy myself, so "what if conscience wasn't an issue?" was a real trip to explore in a fictional setting.

(2) What did you use as inspiration for your worldbuilding (like real-life cultures, animals, famous media, websites, etc.)?

It's present day and real world, but set in an unnamed any-city. Some of the places are based on places I've lived and places I've been. Some aspects of it are inspired by the frivolous luxury nonsense I'd waste money on if I had money to waste. Google is convinced I'm rich because of research for this book.

(3) What is your MC trying to achieve, and what are you, the writer, trying to achieve with them? Do you want to inspire others, teach forgiveness, help readers grow as a person?

The two main characters are both at crisis points in their lives when they meet, so while it's a story about crime and drugs and great coats, it's also a story about walking away from life as you know it and landing in a whole 'nother kind of chaos.

It's very much "they deserve each other (derogatory)" and "I'm bored of trying to fix me, but I could make him worse". The MCs are basically out to make EVERYTHING worse. I was trying to achieve making them fascinating, charismatic and hot while they do it.

No-one is going to grow as a person because of this book. If you read it and feel like you have grown as a person, I don't even want to think about how much of a disaster you were to begin with because seriously, these guys are murderers.

(4) How many chapters is your story going to have?

I'm too lazy to count, but it might've been 32?

(5) Is it fanfiction or original content? Where do you plan to post it?

It's original content and I've already posted it at @novemberbreaksbywintersimpson. The whole thing is on there in indexed chapters and there's a downloadable PDF as well.

(6) When and why did you start writing?

At all? Ever? I don't remember. I always just did it and then never stopped doing it.

(7) Do you have any words of engagement for fellow writers of Writeblr? What other writers of Tumblr do you follow?

I know it's a massive cliché, but write what you enjoy writing and what you're passionate about. If you love it, someone else will too.

I follow so many amazing people on here and I hate making lists because I always forget someone and then I feel like a dickhead. So look at the people I tag regularly in stuff. They're all great.

Tagging anyone who wants to do it! This seems like a fun one for an open tag, so if you do it, please @ me so I can see your answers 💜

Template is under the cut...

(1) What is the main lesson of your story (e.g. kindness, diversity, anti-war), and why did you choose it?

(2) What did you use as inspiration for your worldbuilding (like real-life cultures, animals, famous media, websites, etc.)?

(3) What is your MC trying to achieve, and what are you, the writer, trying to achieve with them? Do you want to inspire others, teach forgiveness, help readers grow as a person?

(4) How many chapters is your story going to have?

(5) Is it fanfiction or original content? Where do you plan to post it?

(6) When and why did you start writing?

(7) Do you have any words of engagement for fellow writers of Writeblr? What other writers of Tumblr do you follow?

AO3 Server Down

Hey,

It’s dark days today, with the AO3 DDOS. Just wanted to let people know that I have like, a lot of mo dao zu shi fics (most of them wangxian) saved to my harddrive, coz my internet is spotty sometimes.

I don’t want to just wack them on google docs (since I don’t want to risk someone taking them and re-uploading them without the author’s consent), but can distribute via... PDF? Probably? (open to other solutions).

If you have a specific one in mind, I can check if I have it (I have an index), or if you’re looking for a vibe I have short descriptions and may be able to find something that suits.

Stay strong.

The 2021 tab or the Year in a Glance lets you add the important holidays and other occasions on the page for easy tracking.

To Do

Make a list of everything!

Project

Perfect if you have projects in school or just at home. For example, I have a project called #getplannerfeatured, and I use this to track my progress and timeline.

Organizer

Include a lot of photos in this page for inspiration. You don't have to follow each format, you can remove the lines by using Pen tool in white to remove the lines and create your own boxes or layouts.

Finances

This is where you put your overall finances - savings, expenses, revenue or difference

Budget

Monthly Budget helps you track all your unexpected expenses and identify the things you don't or won't really need.

Expenses

I'm not really fond of tracking my expenses because I know it'll always be too much or over the budget but I don't have a choice - I just have to track it so I won't go into debt. 😂

Savings

Track your earnings and your cash flow. You can also track your savings for when you want to buy the new iPad Pro or Macbook Pro.

Shopping

Track your shopping list here so you won't have to go over the budget.

Package

Tracking happy mails? Then this is the perfect page! Although since I shifted to digital planning, I don't really have happy mails anymore - maybe happy emails or downloads?

amzn_assoc_placement = "adunit0"; amzn_assoc_search_bar = "false"; amzn_assoc_tracking_id = "kymmiejournals-20"; amzn_assoc_ad_mode = "manual"; amzn_assoc_ad_type = "smart"; amzn_assoc_marketplace = "amazon"; amzn_assoc_region = "US"; amzn_assoc_title = "Recommended for Digital Planning"; amzn_assoc_linkid = "d32590cf1ecfb8dc160183928b74faf4"; amzn_assoc_asins = "B0876P8VHN,B08VMZ4RTY,B07YTHD64R,B07QYYSDMP";

Charts

Charts page is another paper template that you can use for expenses or lists.

Use this page to easily track your appointments and occasions for the whole month. You can also track your bills and subscriptions here so you'd know when to pay or add your project deadlines and meetings.

Monthly Overview Goals

The Monthly Overview page is right after the Monthly spread or just before the Weekly page. You can put your ideas and priorities for the whole month on this page. Remember to add a lot of visuals - photos and stickers so you won't have to fill every box in case you can't.

Weekly

You can use Weekly Planner to track your meals or menu for the week. Write the ingredients or recipe in the bigger boxes. The top 3 boxes can be used for your top 3 priorities this week.

Daily

The Daily page contains a calendar that is clickable to Weekly and Daily. You can use color blocks to track your schedule. Add stickers or photos for your Mood and Activity.

Braindump

You can access the Braindump page every after the last day of the week. Make your braindump page beautiful by adding visuals such as photos and stickers. Focus on what you want to achieve for next week or what you can improve on.

Health

The Health section focus solely on the activities that make you feel good physically without feeling any guilt. Track your workouts, runs, dance class, yoga, stretching, water intake, sleep, meals and add memoji to the Notes boxes.

Intentions

Weekly Intentions page serves as a guided-journal page where you can put which habits that make you feel good, what you like to see manifest this week, what limits you the most right now and how you can change it, write your mantra, describe the person you want to be this week and positive affirmation.

Gratitude

This is super helpful for your personal growth. You have to be appreciative even with the little things - like how your food has been properly prepared by chefs or crew in fast food, how people you don't normally notice makes your life easier and so much more.

2021 Goals

Track your most important goals monthly and add the things that hinder you to accomplish it so it'll be easier for you to focus on each goal. For example, you have 3 goals but you are having difficulties finishing them because of a low budget or maybe time constraint - these are what you call roadblocks that prevent you from achieving your top goals. Identifying your roadblocks will help you focus more on what needs to be done.

Vision Board

Cleaning

Menu

This page makes me crave for yummy food! Track your menu for the week, your ingredients, and maybe write some adjustments to the recipe.

Hex Color Codes

Definitely one of my favorite pages, the Hex Color Codes provided by Tess to match the planner. You can use this to add colors to your handwriting, shapes, texts, color blocks, lines and so much more! I intended to hide the code to protect the seller's rights.

Milestones

There are a lot of things you should celebrate and this Milestone page is perfect for it. You can track your social media follower count, your online course progress, how many referrals you made, how many sales you made on your side hustle and so much more!
