My journal of fighting laziness

 Wednesday 27/09/2023.

A lot has been unfolding in my life, and my parents' separation has taken a toll on my finances. Simultaneously, I'm facing challenges in my relationship with my boyfriend. These issues have transformed me from the typically cheerful and motivated person I used to be into someone who's struggling to find motivation and direction.

 

I've always been diligent about attending classes on time and even staying ahead of the lecturers by reading ahead. I've also been deeply involved in various co-curricular activities, such as debates, entrepreneurship, and music. However, recently, I've found it challenging to juggle all these commitments. I'm determined to regain control over my life by restoring my sleep patterns, improving my interpersonal communication skills, and refining my time management abilities.

 

Today, I set myself the challenge of making at least two new friends and enhancing my time management skills. I achieved a significant victory by waking up at 6:30 am, a notable improvement from my recent habit of rising at 9:00 am. I began reading a new book, "The Concept of Interpersonal Communication," and managed to complete the first chapter. Unfortunately, my focus waned after an hour, leading me back to bed.

 

Despite this setback, I successfully adhered to my class schedule, both in the morning and evening. I would rate my concentration during classes today at around 60%, which is an improvement for me.

 

My ongoing battle with shyness has often driven me to retreat to my room after classes, severely affecting my social life. However, today was different. I took the initiative to interact with some of my classmates within our assignment groups, learning their names and even their countries of origin. During dinner, I struck up a conversation with a guy who complimented my appearance. This interaction significantly boosted my self-esteem, particularly as I've been on a weight loss journey.

 

In conclusion, today marked the beginning of my efforts to regain control over my life and rediscover the motivated and social person I used to be..

Dear life

Dear life There is so much I could say about you, yet I find myself wondering where to begin. You've been a paradox—a blend of harshness and grace. From the moment I was born, you've often felt unfair, denying me the love of my first father and continuing to withhold the love I’ve sought from those I've cared for deeply. I wonder what I've done to deserve this. Yet, despite it all, you’ve also accompanied me faithfully on this journey. God, I come before You, seeking a fresh start—a new journey where I can walk hand in hand with You. I’m grateful for all You've done in my life and in the lives of my family. Your faithfulness has been unwavering, and for that, I will forever praise You. Today, I lift up my prayers to You. I ask for healing and strength for my mother, that her health may flourish. I also pray for a partner, someone chosen by You, who will walk with me in love and faith. As I begin a new semester, I ask for Your guidance, wisdom, and favor to lead me o...
