an ultimate guide to crafting your daily schedule 👀✨

‘Ello, mate! It’s werelivingarts and I’m here with a simple guide to manage your time and prioritize your tasks with only 3 steps ~ 

Before planning anything, For me (you guys might have different approach), I find recognizing my energy level pattern really helpful because I can prioritize tasks and get the done in my most productive time rather than forcing myself to cram for homework after midnight. 🌚🌝

I start planning my day by dumping all of the tasks I remember down to to-do list using Bear, and then I would organize these tasks if they are daily, weekly or monthly task on Edison app – which also allows time blocking. After that, I would prioritize tasks daily on app Success. (This is not ad, this is just helpful apps that I use). 😎

Hope you find this helpful in some ways! Thank you for reading!  ❤️💜💙

“Friendship is the most underrated relationship in our lives … It remains the one relation not bound by law, blood, or money — but an unspoken agreement of love.”

— Hanya Yanagihara (via eatmyson)

it’s truly wild how people only listen to poc voices when there’s violence involved. but when we call out the micro aggressions, the “regular” racism, we get made fun of and dismissed by the edgy internet girls who treat us like we’re subhuman. you all were the very first ones making covid ‘jokes’ against asians last year. and look where that ‘joke’ went.... now white people have used it as an excuse to harass and beat and shoot up asians. it all starts with the little things. it always does.

“For the only safe harbour in this life’s tossing, troubled sea is to refuse to be bothered about what the future will bring and to stand ready and confident, squaring the breast to take without skulking or flinching whatever fortune hurls at us.”

— Seneca, Moral Letters to Lucilius
