4 ANTI-PROCRASTINATION TIPS
Countdown Rule: Count down from 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and on 1 force yourself to work. And no, you can’t stretch the countdown forever.
3 Minute Rule: Start working on the Thing for three minutes, which is barely the amount of time it takes to brush your teeth, and if by the end of it you still HATE YOUR LIFE then see what’s wrong. The hardest part is getting started- if you’re still struggling once you start, your problem isn’t procrastination.
The Absolutely Nothing Technique (TANT): if you’re scrolling on YouTube or whatever and procrastinating, stop and stare at the ceiling. Do absolutely nothing. Don’t pick up your phone, don’t sleep, don’t do anything but stare. Eventually you’ll realize how stupid this is and how you might as well work. verb: tanting ;)
Clean Your Room: similar to the previous one and very self-explanatory. Clean your room- if you don’t like doing it, eventually you’ll realize you’d rather just sit down and work. You’ll get a bit of your space clean as well!

a lot of you have asked how I actually use notion in my day to day life, so I’ve broken down my task manager for all of you! hope this helps :) happy notion-ing! 💖
my other posts on notion: goal setting 📚
edit: i’ve made my template available for everyone to duplicate here! happy notion-ing!
entire post below!
how I use notion to time manage, prioritize, & get shit done
how it works
all tasks (and I mean ALL!) are sorted into 12 categories in a 4 x 3 matrix. this method was adapted from @howtomusicmajor’s post, how to handle having too much to do, which i’ve linked in the post below. i’ve changed things slightly to fit my own personal preferences.
every row is how long a task takes. I’ve got the following: 5 min 30 min hours future
every column is when they are due. i have the following: today tomorrow later
future refers to my tasks that are more abstract, fit are kind of like goals, and aren’t as tangible as ‘Chapter 1 homework’. this allows me to write down everything I have the intention of doing in the near future without trying to quantify them right away. examples of tasks that go in future include:
create new portfolio website (takes a while, not a priority, but I’d LIKE to do it) submit to poetry journals (not pressing, but I want to do it in the near future and having it on my to do reminds me to make time for it) learn cinema 4d (again, kind of abstract, relatively large undertaking that I want to remind myself of)
what are these numbers?
the numbers refer to what order I do the tasks in. 1 is first, 2 is second, and under future, which are more abstract/ long term, the order goes from later, even later, and one day. the core of my tasks are in 1 to 5 for each day, and I move around the rest of the tasks as I see fit.
example of where these tasks go:
chapter 11 stats questions → 30 min & today or tomorrow
water plants → 5 min & today
make portfolio website → future & later
why sort it this way? why notion?
i use this method for 3 reasons:
prioritization: a grid allows me to discern from a glance what I have to do at any given moment, whats important, and what’s not. I also need to be able to move things around, so using a digital resource is better for me.
scheduling: I find that I work better when I can see all the tasks that I have to do in the next few days vs. one day only. I also don’t typically schedule out my days because I find it really difficult to estimate how long tasks take, so I will put tasks I think I can focus on for one day and move them around as needed. it allows for more flexibility in my days!
breaking up tasks: I’ll usually break up my ‘hours’ tasks into pieces, which I then put under 30 min, which allows me to avoid procrastinating. I only need to follow one rule: the numbers! always knowing what to do next with a way to break up tasks makes it a lot easier to tackle things.
how to actually build yourself a grid in notion
sometimes it’s a little hard to build your own customized page in notion, so I started off with a template that would let me speed up my process. I used the weekly agenda template under the Personal category, but any page similar will be fine for you. from there, I just moved around each block until I got a 3 X 4 rectangle.
make it something you WANT to use
some ways that I make my task manager cute and enjoyable to use (you have to like your system or you won’t use it!)
cute cover photos every few days (change things up to keep your tracker fresh!)
recent excerpts from poems I read (inspiration!)
emojis that follow a theme & fit my current mood (tip: you can also use any image or transparent art that you want, so it’s super customizeable!)
and that's it!
finally, what’s most important is that you customize the manager so that it works well for you. if you notice that a process works better a different way, definitely change it! this works remarkably well for me because I alter it as I encounter better solutions. that being said, I hope this post was helpful! changing to this tracker has helped me much better manage school, being vice president of two clubs, my hobbies (like this blog!), sleeping enough, and making time for what’s important to me :)

tfw ur highlighters are compatible with the textbook paper😫🤝💯
I took my first math quiz since 2019 today! We meet again, statistics 😎 (cue Timmy Tim!)
I’ve been anticipating this quiz since the start of the week. It ran from 2:30-4:00PM today! Funny (I think) story actually...I woke up earlier and checked my phone and I saw that it was already 3:55!! I was like “oh no I missed Spanish class” aka the class before my statistics one and I was also getting ready to shotgun my quiz since I literally have FIVE MINUTES LEFT before it closes on Canvas.
I replied to my friends and was like HEJSJE GUYS SORRY but honestly, I was chill...I was calm. In my head I was like welp fun start! Just gotta do it. Then I went to Canvas and I was wondering why the quiz tab was locked since it was only 3:57. 🥸
That’s when I realized it was 3:57am.
Glad I didn’t let myself feel anxious at that moment! I was just listening to the inner calm in me and I’m happy I did that but LOL.
and yes, I got perfect marks on that quiz! 🥰
Take this as a sign to pause, relax, and to get enough rest! This is important so you can function properly and avoid moments like the one I just had LMAO. (I don’t usually sleep before 5AM so ofc my assumption was 3:55 PM instead of AM HHSHSJSH) 😳🥐

An early morning study session before my classes begin. I have started a series of clearance day in which I will clear up all my build up homework and assignments since the last month because I was in this HuGe slump (plus, I am addicted to my phone 🤓) . Hopefully things will work out
