i swear... whoever's praying on my downfall, congrats. its working. i told myself that this year would be my year. it took me years of thinking and planning, contemplating my true passion and purpose in life. and now that i finally found it, i've become SOOOO lazy. i understand that i'm still really young, have plenty of time, and yet have my whole life ahead of me, but what i truly realized, is that RIGHT NOW, is the EXACT moment in my life when i should be working towards my future, studying what i love, and putting in all the consistent effort to be the best version of myself. yET STILL... i sit around, lay in bed, avoid chores and responsibilities, waste my time and potential doing absolutely fuck all, playing computer games or watching youtube. i stay up late every night, my mind is the most active in the late hours, so i have the most motivation and ideas at night. but if i were to actually work at night, i'd lose my energy and prolly fall asleep on my desk. at those times, i always say "i'm gonna wake up tomoro with so much inspiration and determination and work for hours and hours until the sun sets!!!!" yeah shut the fuck up satsu we both you know you ain't gonna do that. you all know you don't do that. we all know you sit on your ass and complain about not getting much attention online when you don't even bother to put the attempts into your creativity. and the craziest thing is that i always have so much free time. i'm literally rarely ever busy, so i have ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD to focus on what i love most and what i aspire to do as an adult. but my sleeping habits and lack of motivation are what's stopping me. i usually wouldn't call myself a creative person, but i know if i have enough inspiration i could create a good thing or two, yet, all i do, all day everyday, is watch youtube, play games, and sit around eating junk. i should be fixing my diet. fixing my sleep schedule. going to the gym. cleaning my room more. studying online (i have a huge playlist on youtube filled with reliable sources of information based on things i love most and wanna study), self-teaching myself skills i would like to have, and aCTUALLY HAVING THE STIMULUS TO DO SIMPLE BASIC THINGS. YET HERE I AM WAKING UP AT 1PM AND STRUGGLING TO PUT 3 PIECES OF CLOTHING AWAY. most actors, singers, creators.. etc, start as teens. start young. so thats what i should be doing right now. this is my prep time. this is my chance. i have so much potential, so much power, so much time, so much possibilities. this is as good as it gets. i need to prepare to be fully educated on everything i need as an adult. cuz i know damn well that time sprints ahead of you in just a few blinks. but, at the same time, i do have mental differences. i have psychological issues i've struggled with since a young age, which it makes it a lot harder for me to get things done, so i sympathize and forgive myself for all that. but the thing is, as of late, all that shit has been getting better. right now, i'm not necessarily anxious or stressed about one specific thing, therefore, i have nothing much relating to cognition that is stopping me from functioning. and i also understand how comforting it can be do to specific things on the internet, like re-discovering favourite nostalgic music and youtubers you loved as a kid (what i've done recently), but that should be a REWARD. that should be something i get at the end, when i've finished a good bit of my achievements. like a prize i get for a job well done....
Thank you @skinnycraves and everyone who got me to 5 reblogs!
questions to ask before giving up:
- are you hydrated? if not, have a glass of water.
- have you eaten in the past three hours? if not, get some food. something with protein, not just simple carbs.
- have you showered in the past day? if not, take a shower now
- if daytime, are you dressed? if not, put on clean clothes that aren't pajamas.
- if nighttime, are you sleepy and fatigued, but resisting going to sleep? put on pajamas, get cozy in bed, and close your eyes for 15 minutes. no screens allowed. if you're still awake after that, you can get up again. no pressure.
- have you stretched your legs recently? if not, do so right now. go on a run. or just a walk.
- have you said something nice to yourself in the past day? do so. and make it genuine.
- do you feel ineffective? pause right now, and get something small completed. whether it's writing something, basic cleaning, etc.
- do you feel unattractive? take a damn selfie.
- do you feel paralyzed by indecision? give yourself 10 minutes to sit back and figure out a game plan for the day. the important thing is to break through the stasis, even if it means doing something trivial.
- have you been over-exerting yourself lately? physically, emotionally, socially, intellectually? give yourself a break in that area, physically rest, take time alone, etc. you're stronger than you think!!!
what matters most to ME in a relationship? giving yourself and your partner the love that neither of you ever got in your early life. being quiet together. observing eachother's aura. learning about eachother. listening to eachother. genuinely feeling comfy and at home with eachother. escaping reality together. feeling comfortable enough to show your soft and vulnerable side to eachother, the side of you that you hide from society. honesty. clear communication. intimacy. dates. lots of dates. especially when they're more fun, than fancy. simple and fun dates, even something small, but meaningful. like drawing together or dancing. being raw, real, authentic, genuine. being silly together. laughing and joking. reliving our childhoods that we never got to enjoy. healing our inner childs. moving forward together, growing up together. thats what i want in a relationship.
bruh i have so much to do and im excited to do it all but it takes so much effort and i always feel like i dont have the time but in reality i have so much free time and i get overwhelmed by the fact that i have so much to do but at the same time they're things that i lobe and enjoy doing but i have no motivation because i wanna do more than one thing at once but obviously i cant do that
the more and more time i spend in this room, the more i dread with jealousy. of course i feel content and comorted in a room filled with arts, but i start to fall deeper and deeper into visions and fantasies, of having 𝐦𝐲 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐦. the vibes of this room make me feel nostalgic for a time that never really happened. i truly feel at home. compared to the only thing i can really do, create my art outside, in a dark old backyard, on a cold windy day in january 😔💔 every single feature in this creative space makes me feel so inspired and euphoric. the clay sculptures on the shelfs, the paintings on the walls, the posters featuring information about art techniques and other things similar. the cupboards containing papers and paints. the long, twisting tables, that spread across every direction in the room, these tables truly make me imagine what kind of big projects could be done on them. the sinks, behind the seats, which are scattered with painting equipment. the sinks make me think about what art methods can be done using water. the closet, near the big, projective whiteboard, which is used for storage, for extra clutter of spare materials....
i am constantly having insane galaxy genius ancient greek philosopher level thoughts about everything all the time, but before leaving my mouth, they get filtered through seven layers of autism, and come out sounding like a youtube comment made by a nine year old
