Notion page ideas !!

For my girlies that have no idea in what to put in their notion, this is 4 u !!!!

Weekly planner

This is so convenient for anyone who doesn’t like repetitive routines!! Basically what i do is that I assign a theme to each day of the week, then add tasks that play into that theme. E.g Mindfulness monday, healthy tuesday, educational wednesday, spiritual thursday, rejuvenating friday, productive saturday and resetting sunday are mine <3 

Weekly journal

Keeping track of the weeks in the year and how you feel about them is just so tiring on paper, so i decided to put them on notion instead. BEST IDEA EVER!!! Basically I just journal about my past week and what i except for next week. Heres the template I created that I use for my weekly journals !

Rate the week

Reflect (brain dump)

What didn’t go to plan?

How do you feel this week?

What good came out of this week?

What was I grateful for this week? 

Write down next week’s plan

How can I improve myself next week?

How do I want to feel next week?

A mini library!!

This is literally so cute I'm telling you, especially if you love reading or want to become a more active reader. Basically, you keep a record of the books you read, how long you took to read them, review them and keep track of the books you want to read !!

Music library  

Omfg this literally changed my life. Instead of just liking songs and following artists on spotify, I know keep tracks of my faves songs and artists. Now it’s literally so easy creating playlists that play into a specific mood + its just fun keeping track 

A wish&need list 

For my girlies that love to spend and shop !! Keep track of things that you need currently and things that you want to buy when you can. It’s so fun and convenient when you do actually go shopping.

You must keep the promises you make to yourself, and reward yourself, so that you can trust and motivate yourself.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson

[thesirencult]

One pattern I noticed in successful people :

They make decisions and act out of WANT and not from a place of NEED.

When you make decisions out of a place of need you are prone to being more illogical and have short-sighted vision.

Distinguish your wants from your needs. Needing can indicate trauma bonding with people and ideas.

#Calmness

[lovegami]

if you’re struggling to get off your phone, make your phone boring to be on.

the reason most of us are stuck on our phone scrolling for hours is because we are “bored” elsewhere in our life.

so we fill our time by using social media, games and other apps to entertain ourselves when, in fact, a lot of the time we are not fully entertained in the end.

i’m sure you know the sick and drained feeling you get after mindlessly scrolling for three hours straight. if you want it to stop, you need to stop giving into the screen and to stop giving into the screen, you need to take the power away from the screen.

so make your phone boring. delete your apps. time spent on social medias like tiktok, instagram, youtube etc can be reduced significantly just by deleting the app, or by adding an app timer. it’s the same with games or any other apps that are eating up your time and energy and giving nothing in return.

this is bound to be difficult given how greatly we rely on phones and social media. we’re “addicted” but it doesn’t need to stay that way.

so if you want to be on your phone less, my homework for you is to delete an app, any app that you know is a major distraction to you. if it’s too difficult to go cold turkey, then add an app timer and gradually reduce the time limits until you no longer feel like you rely on the app. you can do it!

Stop waiting and do something with your life. You won't get results if you sit around waiting for something to magically happen. Life isn't going to change for you, and if you think that way, you're self-centered and stupid. Oh! Do not you think? Then do something to prove yourself wrong! You are the only one who can change your life, so do something about it!

Why You Struggle With ✨Discipline✨

Discipline can be hard for many people because they often lack a strong reason or motivation to stick to their goals. It's like wanting something really badly but not having the determination to work for it. How bad do you actually want it? Sometimes, people choose fun things over the things that are good for them in the long run. Others have trouble managing their time and making smart choices, and they give in to distractions or bad habits easily. Fear of both success and failure can also make it tough to stay disciplined. If there's no one to remind them or support them, they might give up too quickly. This is your life and no one is coming to save you. No one can want it for you more than you. Things like phones and social media can also make it hard to focus, but they don't disconnect. Feeling stressed or overwhelmed can mess with discipline too. Having clear goals and a plan can help a lot. Remember, being disciplined is like a skill that you can get better at with practice and by finding ways to stay motivated. Usually, there's nothing really stopping you from achieving your goals, it's mostly you standing in your own way. The thought of missing out on your dreams because you're not disciplined enough can be really tough to handle. Worrying about what could happen 5 years from now causes you anxiety and paralyses you. It's difficult to accept that you could have it all with just a bit of effort. So, discipline is not only about getting things done but also about achieving the life you want and avoiding the regret of not trying harder.

Hi dear! Much love as always~

My best friend and I are doing our 2024 planning and aspirations together so we can hold each other accountable during the year.

We were wondering if you have any suggestions on things to focus on that can help each of us improve as a person. It’s alright if they’re very generic. I mostly just want to know your opinion and advice. ❤️

Hi love! Thank you so much for this kind note––I'm flattered and love the purpose behind this message <3

As a starting point, I think it's great to set 1-3 goals in major categories of life:

Career

Finances

Physical Health

Emotional Health

Relationships (platonic/romantic +sexual)

Self-care

Hobbies

Self Improvement

Joy & Pleasure/Leisure

Hope this helps xx
