Motivational Tuesday: Digging deep to find the will to study....



Exactly how I feel at the moment
Motivation is a fickle thing, it comes and goes in waves. Have you ever taken on a task, only to find that you just don't have the energy to finish it? 

Well after months of tests and and studying, I woke up this morning with a revelation: enough is enough. My exams come up in two weeks and I know that I need to start studying, but I just can't find the will.

And as the weather changes so too does my need to study.

See here's the thing: success is not linear. There will be ups and downs, but you'll get there. Even if it's no as quickly as 

So what would I recommend for the moment. For me, I'm just going to have to force myself to study, because no one else will force me to do it. 

How do you find motivation to study at the end of the year?

Motivational Tuesday: Making a Comeback After a Setback

Image
Hi guys, so today I'm going to get really serious with you. Recently I experienced a really bad setback. Experiencing a set back really really sucks. You work really hard to get something, yet you miss it. And it sucks, it just sucks. So how do I deal with setbacks? Before I even start figuring out how I am going to get through it, I have a plethora of negative thoughts, which unfortunately is part of my nature, which I'm trying to work on. Unfortunately being a first year, everything is kind of thrown at you all at once. And when you face a setback as a first year, it all seems worse. Well I sit and cry for about an hour, then I snack on any junk food I can find and take a nap for at least an hour. Then I wake up and I feel slightly better, but I still have that sucky feeling. Ya know what I'm saying. S I get up, take a breath and workout, to try and blow off some steam. Take a shower, surround myself with people who love me and support me, then begin ...

I Drank 2 Liters of Water every Day for 30 Days... Here's What Happened

Image
"I believe that water is the only drink for a wise man" -    Henry David Thoreau Hello, my little chickadee dickadees! How have you been? Haven't spoken in a while, but let's be honest I battled to blog every week. My life is so crazy with my Honours degree that I barely even have time for myself, let alone time to think up a blog post. Yet here we are… It occurred to me last month that a simple solution to my writer's block was to try something new every month and report back on what happened. So I decided to up the amount of water I was drinking for 30 days. This meant drinking 2litres of water a day for 30 days. This only refers to the intake of water, not coffee or tea. To be honest, I probably drank more than two litres (other beverages included), but I wanted to focus on a round, seemingly attainable number. 2 Litres seemed doable to me. Over time, water replaced soft drinks and I actually started to like the taste of ice-cold water, especi...

Why I Meditate... and what my Disney character is

Image
In my last post, I mentioned that I wanted to better my well-being this year. Physical, mental and spiritual well-being. I didn't explicitly state my resolutions, but I did give you the gist of it.   "Meditation is a vital way to purify and quiet the mind, thus rejuvenating the body" - Deepak Chopra Some part of me has always been inherently spiritual. I was introduced to meditation when I was in the third grade. We had been given free time and one of my friends was sitting peacefully in the corner of the classroom, legs crossed and eyes closed. I sat down next to her and asked her what she was doing and she simply replied "meditating". She asked me if I wanted to join her and I did. Although that was years ago, when I think about what piqued my interest in meditation, that memory always comes up. Since then meditation was always an "on-again/off-again" habit of mine. I decided to take meditation more seriously last year when my anxiety w...
