ENFP problems

- people not realizing that you want to be alone, but don’t know how to say it in a nice way.

- always ending up in the middle of arguments because you see both sides, causing your friends to get angry at you for not choosing theirs.

- not being able to stick to one thing because you’ll forget about it later.

- feeling like a “therapist” to people because they always vent to you and ask for your advice.

- wanting to be a leader, but dealing with conflict with your friends stresses you out. So you can’t give constructive criticism.

- your energy comes from people, but too much will overwhelm you. Always being in a cycle of surrounding yourself to isolating yourself.

- wanting to help people, but not knowing how.

- worried that you’re being manipulative all the time.

- not being able to let people go, leading into destructive relationships because you think about how they used to be, and they can be like that again.

- when your social energy is at 0% and you need time alone but you can’t get it.

- when your social energy is recharged and you feel horrible for pushing your friends away.

- getting ideas all the time for random projects, but never going through with it. Leaving a ton of papers all over your desk that you don’t want to get rid of.

- worried you’re not yourself. That you’re just someone that changes around every personality to fit their aura.

(These are just some of my experiences)

Tips for a more productive study session

1. Tidy up your desk/work area. Believe me, it’s so much easier to concentrate once your surroundings are clean and smell nice.

2. Wash your teeth and face before every study session. It will make you feel clean and more awake.

3. Keep a big bottle of water near you and stay hidrated throughout the whole session.

4. Set a few goals (not very many) to accomplish in your session. Do that in order to set a purpuse, but don’t be overoptimistic, it’s bettr to focus on your priorities.

5. Put on something that you feel comfortable in. Whatever it is, a onezie, pyjamas, tracksuit bottoms, anything that doesn’t bother you and helps you focus on work. 

6. Take 20 minute breaks every one or two hours (depending on your stress level)

7. If you tend to play with/pull your hair, try to keep it up in a hairstyle that keeps it out of the way. This goes out to my trich friends and anyone who obessively plays with their hair as a way to destress. Just figure out the best way to keep your hair out of your head (haha) for the longest time possible.

No I haven't read any of these honestly. I've read some of Sun-Ra's other poetry, nor that particular collection though, and I absolutely loved it. So based on that, I'd recommend Sun-Ra's work :)

I should’ve posted this yesterday, whoops. 17/3/2016 || Day 1/100 of productivity I finished my final exams for Winter Quarter on Wednesday; I’m officially on spring break, but that doesn’t mean I can’t be productive. I did some reading and planning for Monday’s UW Math Day planetarium show. Also, I finally organized my desk!
