I’ve written eight articles for Project Arbiter and it has been difficult. It’s hard to be consistent. It’s also depressing to not have ideas on what to write for the next articles. I knew being consistent with a lifelong project was tough, but I didn’t know it would hit me this hard. Life moves on … Continue reading Pivot

Crash
The generic advice most successful people give out is to improve our systems and processes. I tried following that advice because who doesn't want to be successful too? This week of Project Arbiter has been a testament to that advice. I'm incredibly grateful for how far I've progressed with my other projects in one month. … Continue reading Crash
Rest Days
Who would've thought the week I allotted for breaks turned out to be the most productive? Like, what the hell is going on?! I don't understand! I had laser-focused attention, met my deadlines earlier, went on a date, and followed my routine with military discipline. It's crazy how much mental pressure was removed by reframing … Continue reading Rest Days
Disappoinment
I planned this week with lessons I’ve learned in the past entries—being careful not to overwhelm myself.

The week sped through like a car on a highway, it was … Continue reading Disappoinment

I came across a video on YouTube, where it made me remember the books I read about mindfulness, stillness, and peace. I know the video … Continue reading Embracing Boredom
5 Simple Ways to Increase Your Grades for Every Semester
Keeping it short since you’re really busy, and I’m not that smart. Studying. I’ve been an honor student for the majority of my student life (High School to University). I’ve tried many things to get to the top (Yes, even cheating which by the way worked, but it didn’t suit me) and oh so suddenly … Continue reading 5 Simple Ways to Increase Your Grades for Every Semester
2020 Week Review: May 3 – May 9
This week wasn’t productive like last week. I didn’t have motivation nor discipline at all. I was probably burnt out because I was too intense on doing my tasks back then. However, I still did the tasks I assigned myself this week. I only missed one of the tasks that I set, and it was … Continue reading 2020 Week Review: May 3 – May 9
