MAKING YOUR PHONE TO BE INTENTIONAL

MAKING YOUR PHONE TO BE INTENTIONAL

MAKE A VISION BOARD WALLPAPER. Create one that aligns with your goals and dream self, so that every time you pick your phone up, you’re reminded of your goals and future vision. Also, great for manifesting! 

KNOW YOUR APP’S PURPOSE. For me, tumblr is a way I share advice and learn, YouTube I also learn from others, pinterest I get inspired, netflix is a way for me to unwind etc. If for any app, you cannot name a proper purpose/intent to use it daily or to help with your goals, delete it. 

DECIDE WHICH TYPES OF APPS YOU WANT. If you have a new phone, or you want to completely reset your phone, write or type, the apps, that you want and those you don’t. 

E.g I want to learn a language, practice mindfulness on the go, get some mental gratification that isn’t addicting, organise my life better and have a way to track my progress. I don’t want apps that support doom-scrolling, make me compare myself and are addictive. 

BE MINDFUL OF WHAT YOU SIGN UP TO. Newsletters, social media, subscribing to YouTubers and so on, just think about your goals and vision and if they align with them, every time you think about signing up/subscribing. 

HAVE NO PHONE TIME/ZONES. For me, my phone is not allowed to be used in bed. If I must use my phone, I have to get out of bed first. My phone is also not allowed during study time, so I put it in a separate room which makes it inconvenient. 

REGULARLY DO A DIGITAL DECLUTTER. Delete any old contacts that you don’t talk to, unsubscribe from newsletters and YouTube channels, organise your socials etc. Removes space and helps us to see our phones with more clarity. 

SET PURPOSEFUL WIDGETS. These can be anything, motivational quotes, your daily to-do list, reminders of your habits and so on. However, make sure you’re looking at them and they're not just taking up space.

so much to do 😓

wanted to post this on it's own because i spent so much time on it...

♥ 24 Dec 2023 - Christmas Eve! ♥

I was able to do some work on a psych module last night after i felt better!

However today, i got my period! Ugh, right before Christmas too! Decided to do some well deserved self care (hair & face mask, healthy breakfast, at home mani, and small sleep in). My hair feels sooo good now!

Doing more uni work, will probs do some tomorrow as well (yay)... although the modules i find kinda fun... I've always loved psychology and analysing people (kinda related, got really into criminal minds last month... i love the profiling)

Also been trying to find cute youtubers to help with motivation, for study and getting my shit together lol. If you have any recommendations plz share!

I've been trying to fuel my mind whilst taking breaks by watching more video essays, it's sooo good! There are many in depth, academic and educational ones on YT, but also more lighthearted comedic ones about random things.

Like i just watched a Burback video (great channel btw) about PokemonGo's release, it was so interesting! Did you know that 3 bodies were found bc of PokemonGo in the first 10 days of release?! Or that Nintendo stocks rose the highest they had ever been since the 80's because people mistakenly thought Pokemon was owned by Nintendo??

Anyways, should go back to studying now, if you've read this far, thanks so much for listening to my rambles. :) ♥
