Okay so: you had your zero day. Now it’s time for a reset.

Get in the shower/bath. Clean the previous week off of your body.

Do some skincare if that’s something you do. I like to use an oil cleanser with some facial massage tools.

Clean your desk. A tidy space is a clear mind.

Look at your assignments for this week so you know what you’re doing.

Organize your schedule on a physical or online planner. Write down due dates.

Set your alarm for tomorrow morning so you don’t wake up late.

Things I did last semester that boosted my average:

I don’t really like to toot my own horn but I see these posts a lot and I thought I’d share what really worked for me personally :)

•took both handwritten and typed notes (minimized hand fatigue so my notes were actually good lol) (also it’s far easier to take extensive notes and delete them later than to take minimal notes and be stuck trying to remember what was said)

•before an exam: created flashcards, diagrams, and rewrote or fleshed out notes on a word doc in a simulated exam atmosphere to enhance later recall

•planned a month at a time so I knew in advance when I could socialize and when I had to Grind™️ to prevent burnout

•made friends in my classes!! genuinely makes a big difference

•annotated the hell out of everything (pencil or post in textbooks to resell, pen and highlighters in books I knew I’d keep, all online readings were converted to PDFS and I scribbled all over them)

•annotated with jokes this is maybe unorthodox but I swear it worked for me- I’d laugh at the wording, draw emojis, reference memes, and crack jokes in the margins of my books and it made it so much easier to remember key points of the readings later on

•cut off toxic friends. self explanatory lol but stress impacts your grades!

#my posts #bobastudy #studyblr #academia #study tips #study with me #light academia #psych major #english major #canadian studyblr #aesthetic #double major #academic weapon #study like granger #study resources #studyblr resources #abt to start a summer course so I’m in ✨study mode✨#lol #gpa

Language Study Resource Recommendation: Internet Archive’s Open Library website!

They offer thousands of books in many different languages. To find books in languages other than English; First click browse, and then click Subjects. Scroll all the way to the last subject and you’ll see a title that says “Books by Language,” and under this you will see choices for all kinds of languages, with a ‘see more’ tab for even more languages.

I don’t know much else about this website however because I just found out about it today.

Monk Mode | Study Hack

I read an article on Business Insider that was called "How The 'Monk Mode' Productivity Hack Cured My Procrastination" and I was intrigued because I never heard of a study hack like this before! I learnt a lot from that post and researched more about it, so I'm here to share what I found! Hopefully it'll help someone!

So, are you struggling to concentrate on your work or studies? "Monk Mode" might be the solution for you! By eliminating distractions and committing to a single task, you can achieve a state of intense focus and productivity.

Learn about how to enter "Monk Mode" and improve your concentration and results~!

What is Monk Mode?

Monk Mode is a term used to describe an intense and focused approach to studying or working. It involves eliminating distractions and other activities that may interfere with your concentration, and committing to a single task for an extended period of time.

“Monk mode is going into a hyperbolic chamber, where you can go to do a maximum amount of training in a short amount of time. It is dialing in on what’s really important and eliminating everything that’s not important so you can have the time, energy, focus, and money to really create what it is that you want.” - Gavin Speaks on YouTube

When you enter Monk Mode, you essentially dedicate yourself entirely to your studies, blocking out all other distractions and activities until you have achieved your goal. This can involve turning off your phone or other electronic devices, avoiding social media, limiting interactions with others, and even setting up a designated study space that is free from distractions.

The steps to Monk Mode

Create a distraction-free environment

Set a clear goal

Prioritize your work

Eliminate decision fatigue by planning ahead

Create to-do lists

No multitasking

Set a realistic timeframe to be in Monk Mode

Take breaks

Stay hydrated

Use headphones

Limit social interactions

Use productivity tools

Stay consistent as it creates a habit

Evaluating your session at the end

Celebrate your successes

In terms of productivity tools, you could use the Pomodoro technique, "Eat The Frog", time blocking, Eisenhower Matrix, Kanban boards, mind mapping and 80/20 rule (also known as the Pareto Principle)! I'll make a post about these soon!

The Goal?

The goal of "Monk Mode" is to maximize your focus and productivity by minimizing any potential distractions or interruptions. This can help you to stay on track and achieve your goals in a more efficient and effective manner, allowing you to make the most of your study time and achieve better results.

Here are some addition articles to read about Monk Mode:

How the Monk Mode productivity hack cured my procrastination - LINK

What is Monk Mode? Monk Mode Benefits, Strategies, and Planning - LINK

How to use the ‘Monk Mode’ productivity and life hack - LINK

What is 'monk mode' and how can it boost productivity? - LINK

Hopefully this helps someone out there, especially my fellow programmers who are learning new languages/technologies! Thanks for reading and happy coding! 😸👍🏾💗

I saw that you use a tablet, a desktop, and paper notes. How do you conciliate those notes?

Is there a mechanism of making primary notes on one resource and then passing those notes to other while reviewing them?

hi! thanks so much for asking! here are my favorite methods for sharing notes between devices :). i personally have apple devices so i can fairly easily airdrop and sync things between devices, but i also frequently work at the library desktop computers where i can't do that! so here's my tips and tricks for sharing notes between devices

for context: i've been mostly doing digital notetaking recently, but i also like to scan my paper notes as well!

i'm going to be dividing this post into 2 methods! (there will be some overlap). syncing already written notes and syncing notes (in progress) between devices

for already written notes:

the first step i would take is export your notes as a pdf or any other file type. if they're handwritten try going into your notes app (for ios) or downloading a pdf scanner app for your phone! if your notes are digital check the sharing options in your app to see if there's anything about "exporting".

personally, i like to use either discord or notion. i have created a discord server with only myself that i use just for sharing links/files/anything between devices! i like discord because there's apps for pc, mac, tablets, and phones; and even a web app! discord is really nice and fast, and you can make different channels (as pictured below) for organization. as long as your file size isn't too big, you should be fine.

my second app i like to use is notion! notion is such a beast in itself, but i like to use it to upload files and images and links! below are two ways i have used it: to upload pdfs/files, and to upload goodnotes (my notetaking app) links to the pages i'm writing on! similar to discord, notion has apps for all devices, but it also works great just by itself on the website (no app required)! it's really great to access it from all my devices.

another way you could share your notes on different devices is through the cloud! (yes, discord and notion are both through the cloud). google drive, microsoft onedrive, icloud storage, etc. are great tools that you can use to upload files and see on multiple devices. i personally like discord and notion more, just because they're already apps i frequently use, but if you can't get either one cloud-based storage platforms are also a great idea! they definitely have more security than discord or notion, because your files may be at risk of being deleted!

for the purposes of sharing notes to reference on another device when writing an essay, or something of similar vain, i really love discord and/or notion and they both work great!

for syncing notes in real time:

pretty similar to the last one, i would say notion or google docs (or microsoft word on the web i believe has similar functionality, or onenote, anything similar!)

if you want to be writing notes on one device and have them sync up quickly on another - i think any word processing software is the best bet for you.

both notion and google docs you can access them on any device, and/or on their websites too!

google docs is a lot more straightforward, but since notion is so powerful it provides a lot of flexibility for your notes! here's an (old) example of notes i've taken on notion. (i personally really like how easy it is to make columns!)

i hope this helped a little bit! please let me know if you have any more questions :)

also! notetaking is very much an individual thing, if something works for me and doesn't work for you - that's okay! we're all learning and just have to figure out what's best for ourselves.

My New Favorite Chinese Dictionary Resource

A couple of months ago, I discovered a great new resource, 教育百科 from the Taiwanese Ministry of Education. It is a Chinese-Chinese dictionary, so it’s best for high-intermediate and advanced learners.

Here’s an example entry using the word 爆炸. As you can see, there’s pinyin and zhuyin provided. Those blue blocks show the different dictionaries that contain entries for 爆炸. Yes, they even have Hakka and Hokkien entries for some words!

Continuing on, there’s some audio, definitions (in Chinese of course), and a couple examples.

Where this dictionary really shines is for chengyu. Here’s an example of what you get for the chengyu 听天由命.

There’s almost too much here explaining the origin and history! Seriously, it’s too much content.

Here’s my favorite part: the example sentences. Some chengyu I’ve looked up don’t have this many example sentences, but some have even more.

Lastly, there’s even a comparison section to compare and contrast other similar chengyu.

I’ve been doing a one year chengyu-a-day challenge for the past 10 months or so, and I found that for some chengyu, Pleco just didn’t cut it. There weren’t enough example sentences! I ended up stumbling across this resource, and it’s been so useful.

Pleco is usually still my first stop, but when I need more, I head over to https://pedia.cloud.edu.tw/ or https://dict.idioms.moe.edu.tw/ (the latter also has a lot of the same chengyu content but leaves some things out).
