Dream Girl Guide: How to Stay Productive

I saw this post on Twitter that said, "you're not overwhelmed, you're lazy and unmotivated." and to a certain extent, I agree. I definitely used to be a lazy, unmotivated person until I started working on my time management and organization skills. Here's how I did it:

Time Management

Get a planner

Everyone needs a planner; they are not just limited to students.

Find a planning system that is functional for you

I like to use a physical and digital planner:

A huge key to being consistently productive and organized is to make your task, especially reoccurring, as enjoyable and engaging as possible, which is why I like to use a physical planner; it allows me to be creative.

I like to keep it simple and just use stickers and washi tape; you want to make it enjoyable, but you don't want to take the focus away from the task at hand (planning)

The first photo is mine, but the other two are spreads by study_withashley that I've been using as inspo.

I use my digital planner for the "always on hand" convenience and the minimalistic layout. I use the apps Actions and Timepage; they are both a subscription ($2 a month), but it's super worth it!

Timepage is a calendar app with a monthly, weekly, and daily view; and Actions is for planning tasks (week view) and making lists.

You can change the background color and color-code your calendar and list. They have a 1-month free trial if you're interested!

How to efficiently plan

Monthly

♡ In your monthly and weekly view, write in any important dates that are set in stone (appointments, work and class schedule, due dates for assignments, tests/exams, birthdays, etc)

♡ Now that you have an idea of what your month will look like, on a notes section or sticky note, write down your own personal goals/action step, habits you want to practice or break, and unscheduled things you need to do. Don't overwhelm yourself - try to limit yourself to 5 in each category.

Daily

♡ Plan your days the night before - that way you have an idea of what your day is going to look like when you wake up and you can act accordingly. Don't plan days ahead; life is unpredictable.

♡ Schedule and prioritize 3 things every day; whether it's studying or having a self-care day.

Getting things done

♡ Set the tone - wake up early (at least by 9 am), fix your bed, and change out of your PJs.

♡ If you are going out, give yourself 1-2 hours to get ready. Avoid having to rush as much as possible.

♡ If you are staying home, have a designated space for getting work done - Some ideal spaces are at a desk, the library, Starbucks, and dining rooms. Do not work on a couch or bed.

♡ In addition, keep your space clean, and surround yourself with positivity and progressive things. Your environment affects your mood and productivity.

♡ If possible, stay ahead of your assignments to prevent stress and cramming.

♡ Like I said before, make your task as enjoyable as possible - Example: I don't like cleaning, so while I am, I watch vlogs of people being productive. It's motivating me while also distracting my brain from the fact that I'm cleaning. However, when it comes to more serious tasks, make them enjoyable, but not distracting.

♡ Use the Pomodoro technique to avoid burnout (no phone breaks!)

♡ Create routines - you don't literally have to follow a routine every day, but routines are good for days that you feel like you need some structure in your life.

♡ Stay emotionally aware and prioritize self-care - don't neglect yourself trying to get things done because, in the end, it will backfire. Every day take at least 5 minutes to do something that makes you feel good.

You unlearn or reprogram by doing/saying/thinking the opposite of what you usually do.

Stop playing victim and start taking control whether it’s mentally, physically, verbally, spiritually.

Flip the script. Rewrite your story. Press it into your subconscious by repeating this new story to yourself. Change your actions. Change your speech.

You are important. You are number one. Start acting like it. You are already who you “aspire” to be✨

♈️ Aries: you’ve been to hell & back, but baby look at you now.

-Knight of Swords & Six of Swords-

Aries.. whew, you went through it, huh? It wasn’t easy, was it? I know it was a lot to deal with it, and at the time it seemed completely unfair & overwhelming, honestly it may have been rather paralyzing to feel so much at once...

♉️ Taurus: Unexpected, but you’re on the come-up!

-0 • Fool & Three of Swords-

Okay Taurus, yep, that hurt. You were dealt a card you weren’t expecting more than likely, this could be a big heartbreak from someone you never expected it from, this could have been a disappointment from something you were expecting..

♊️ Gemini: Secure your bag, but don’t fizzle yourself out before then.

-King of Wands & Knight of Wands-

Okay Gemini I see you 👀 you’ve been really moving lately, huh? It feels like life may have thrown you some curveballs these past couple weeks, but don’t let that stop you..

♋️ Cancer: Time to clear the air about what happened— let’s be real.

-VIII • Strength & XI • Justice-

Okay Cancer, lets talk about it. Something didn’t go exactly like you had been planning either a situation or it was a connection with someone, whatever it is it’s got you seriously bummed out..

♌️ Leo: You had a Tower moment, it kicked ass, but you’re on your way back up— better than ever.

-X • Wheel of Fortune & Knight of Pentacles & Five of Pentacles (Card jumped out)-

Oh Leo, where do we begin? It appears we’ve all came out of a really funky situation & time where releasing our need for control & submitting to the Universe was literally our only &..

♍️ Virgo: How we look at the past is completely up to us, it’s time to move on.

-Nine of Swords & Knight of Cups-

Viiiirgo, lets talk. Specifically about what’s on your mind right now: the past. You know you can’t change what’s happened, right? So.. why worry? You’re only hurting yourself, and honestly..

♎️ Libra: Work it baby, you’ve been on the MOVE, just take some time to relax.. also, there’s love in the air 👀

-Four of Cups & Page of Cups-

Libra, can you hear me? are you paying attention? snap out of it for a minute. I can see you’ve been hot & heavy on self-growth and deep, personal-introspection lately, you’ve been reeeally inside yourself and reflecting..

♏️ Scorpio: You know & I know you’re on the ball, but there’s some things we should talk about.

-Three of Wands & Knight of Swords-

So, Scorpio, congratulations on all the progress you’ve made, I’m REALLY proud of you— like seriously. But let’s try and get realistic a little here. So, there’s no denying you’ve made progress, but how are you feeling?..

♐️ Sagittarius: It’s over. It’s done. But it’s also okay, let’s work through it.

-Ten of Swords & Two of Pentacles-

Oh Sagittarius honey, y’all went THROUGH it. Most importantly, for some of y’all still feeling stuck, listen to me, it is OVER. Something has/had left you absolutely defeated, it all was just a lot on you, and I get that..

♑️ Capricorn: Look, you literally cannot do everything alone, nor can you juggle a million things at once.

-Three of Pentacles & Two of Pentacles-

Okay Capricorn, this is looking pretty neat and straightforward. This is telling me that it’s wanting you to know that it’s okay to let people help you, whether it’s in terms of a work environment &..

♒️ Aquarius: You’ve been through the ringer, but you’re gonna pull out of it— if you try.

don’t repost our work or claim it as yours

No one else cares for your success, so you have to care. You have to force yourself to get up early, you have to force yourself to turn your phone off and revise, you have to force yourself to workout, you have to care for the whole world because no one else cares until they start seeing results. And they won’t ever see your results if you don’t care enough first. It’s your life, they are your goals, your dreams, it will be your success but it has to be your effort and your work first and foremost x

Commit to your new life.

When you become aware of how you speak, how you think and how you act, you are no longer programmed by the past.

Teach your body how your future is going to feel like. Feel the emotions in the present moment. Right now, feel the emotions you want to feel in the future. 

You can become grateful and abundant before the promotion, or before you get the job.

You can feel in love before the relationship happen. You can fall in love with your life, your body, your choices.

You can steer your emotions with your thoughts.

So if you have been waking up grumpy for the past year, start disciplining your mind to feel grateful in the morning.

Practice guided meditations to create the feeling of abundance in your life. Start a gratitude journal. Praise yourself in the mirror. Flirt with yourself. Spoil yourself. You are the captain of your thoughts. Your thoughts influence your emotions. Emotions create your life. 

Build a new personality. 

If you really did believe your thoughts create your future, you would show up and do the work. You would observe your thoughts daily and when any negative thought pops into your head, you would flip it and built constructive ones. 

All it takes is awareness and discipline. Start today. Start right now. You are capable of changing your life just like anybody else.

Sending you much love 💖

How To Be Rid Of Evil Eye

“Should you find yourself in a situation where you think the evil eye has been placed on a loved one, try the following folk remedy. Take a small amount of olive oil to your ancestor altar. Pray that they will conjure any evil eye that may have been placed on your loved one intentionally or unintentionally into the oil.

Place a dish of water over the victim’s head and add some of the oil drop by drop. Look at the patterns it forms. Do any of them look like eyes? (They will jump right out at you if they’re there.) Prick any eyes that you see in the oil with a pin or cut them with scissors. When you’re done, dump the water and oil down the toilet.”

- Excerpt from: "Honoring Your Ancestors: A Guide to Ancestral Veneration" by Mallorie Vaudoise.
