Ya Know What I Want To See More Of In The Study/bujo Community

how to start your year off right.

here are some tips and suggestions on how to begin the new year on a good start. i’m sure there are lot more you can do, but these are a few that can inspire you to do more. let’s make 2018 the best year yet. let me know what you’re doing too!

digital purification. let’s start the new year with a clean digital life. delete old pictures, contacts, apps, etc. go through your emails. unfollow people. delete digitally things and people that don’t have a place in your 2018.

clean your room/house. there’s nothing better than a clean and organized house. designate time to clean every to make sure the cleanliness and organization stays the way it is. having a solid structure and organized feelings will allow you to focus more.

reflect. 2017 was a long year so take sometime to look back on the good and the bad and everything that has gotten you to where you are. it’s important to recognize what you accomplished. 

end toxic relationships (if possible). let’s be real, ending a relationship no matter if it’s a friendship or what is difficult. if you are able to get rid of that toxicity from your life, do it. you don’t need negativity and hate entering your 2018. you deserve love and unconditional happiness!

goals. right your goals for the year if you haven’t done so yet. there are many approaches you can do this for this, but make sure your goals are achievable and realistic. you can do day by day, month by month, or the year as a whole. whatever style will help you conquer 2018 and make you feel accomplished!

plan. i recommend getting a planner, calendar, notebook, or whatever will allow to stay on track for the new year. stay organized and plan events. it’s really easy to fall be hind when you don’t have your life planned out. you can even do this digitally! you can also plan your budget and financials.

STUDY STUDY STUDY- The Few Days Before Exams

My first exam (modern history) is Wednesday. Today is Sunday. For the past few days my life has been about study, study and more study. Here’s the best tips I can give you:

Start NOW

Flashcards are the best way to study- you learn while making them AND by revising

Mindmaps are also good for connecting ideas

And because they can be messy

You don’t have time to be neat and meticulous (though go ahead if it helps you)

My advice is to just make it legible enough for YOU

Remember, this is for you

Practice papers are your friend

But let’s be real, you probably don’t have time

So instead of essays do essay plans, for example

Or practice introductions, that’s useful too. It helps you come up with ideas

Take care of yourself, you’re obviously busy, but take breaks for meals at the very least

Start with the hard stuff and then do the easy stuff

For example, I have been revising history during the day and annotating books at night as part of my nighttime reading

Try and get enough sleep while you can

Don’t forget the big picture

Talk to friends & family if you’re feeling anxious

Aim for 100%- Know as much as you possibly can, even if you don’t expect to get 100

Learn the structure of your exams, it’s so much less daunting on the day

Utilise your teachers if you need them

Breathe, it’ll be okay

You got this

Don’t forget to prepare the materials you’ll need

And go ace those exams :)
