I know some of you are currently going through exams or assignments or you just have a lot to do but find yourself easily distracted. Even now, you could be reading this post as a distraction. Hopefully once you've finished reading this post you'll be a master at dealing with distractions and actually get back to what you're meant to be doing. Let's get started. 1. Plan your time wisely It's really important to plan out your time wisely on everything you need to do. Make a to-do list of what you need to do and try to schedule out time frames for how long you want to do each thing. Of course be realistic with your timings, don't assume it will take longer. Try to plan it as if you're in school. Spend two hours working, take a break then do another two hours then have an hour lunch then continue to work another hour. When I was in university, one of my lecturers gave me a tip to treat your uni work like a nine to five job. Even if you don't have lectures t...

As this week's theme has been all about blogging, I thought I'd share with you my workspace and where I write the majority of my blog posts on a weekly basis.

It has no drawers or anything and plenty of space underneath it, although I'm not going to show underneath because it's a little chaotic with my makeup products and beauty supplies. Anyway, enjoy an overview of my desk and then I'll go through each part of it. The laptop that I use for everything including...

We all have off days where we feel so unmotivated to do nothing productive. Especially with this pandemic when you spend a lot more time in the four corners of your home. It's hard to find motivation when everything just feels the same. Here are a few tips that I've found useful for keeping motivated on off days. 1. Have a dedicated work space I find having a dedicated space in your home to do your work is a great way to feel motivated. I would avoid working from your bed or even the sofa as they are comfortable plus will make you feel a little lazy. I would definitely recommend working at a desk or if you don't have a desk, try working at a dining room table. At least you know when you sit down at your desk, you're in working mode then you can leave your sofa and bed for times when you want to relax and just be a little lazy. 2. Tidy up I don't mean go crazy with cleaning your entire home, I mean just clear up any clutter around your work space. If you'...
