đ§Œ First things first, after you wake up make sure to drink water to boost your metabolism throughout the day! Also, create a mind movie so you can watch it everyday after you wake up.
Now, take your journal and start writing about your dream, ideal higher self, ask yourself questions like âWhat reality do i want to create?ÂŽ 'Who do i look up to?â âWhat is the behavior I need to change about myself?â âWhat's a new habit that I would like to create?â âWhat is a thing I can focus on right now?â. After we have in mind who we want to become, it's important that every little decision you make today is centered to achieve your goals, and become your dream self. You can listen to a podcast while doing this so you get motivation!
đ¶ Then, head to the bathroom and look at yourself in the mirror and start repeating positive affirmations, such as âI am so beautifulâ or âMy hair looks so pretty todayâ, even if you don't believe it, having a positive mindset is going to help us to stay in track with our goals!
Take care of your teeth, Liz says that our smile is one of the most important things in a person, and one of the key things that is going to make you more attractive! so, make sure to brush your teeth, floss, clean your tongue, etc.
đŁ Liz has a rather simple skincare routine, since her skin is so sensitive, it only consists of using a foam cleanser, moisturizer and eye cream to help with her eye bags.
Next step is to research and find our own personal clothing and makeup style, find out your body type, personal color, face shape, etc. It doesn't matter if you have to mix multiple styles that already exist to make your own! The most important thing is to feel comfortable while wearing those clothes or having that type of makeup on your face.
đ Liz doesn't like to force herself to have breakfast, she just dont eat if she's not hungry, however if you are hungry rather than focusing on calories focus on how nutritious your meal is. Whatsoever if you are not hungry and you are not going to eat, make sure to always take your vitamins and supplements!
Yes, it's time to drink a little more water!
â° Liz doesn't have a settled study routine but, it's important to spend our time wisely, if you can finish an assignment way before the time it's due, DO IT! Also, she emphasized that knowledge leads to confidence. If you put effort in your studies, every little thing in your life will slowly fall into place.
First, set healthy goals, like toning up your body or building muscle, try not to make âjust being skinnyâ your goal.
đ§© second, don't measure yourself with a scale or measuring tape and focus on how you look in the mirror, are you satisfied? if you are then you are done with the intense workout routine!
Liz goes to the gym and has her own personal training program, but hereâs some kind of exercises she recommends; weight training, pilates and dancing with her main focus being toning up her abs and butt.
đââïž Remember to drink water and that consistency is more important than perfection, go at your own pace, it doesn't matter if you can't do a 2 hour workout and look snatched in 3 days and you can only do a 5 minute workout, every little effort adds up!
Before showering, do dry brushing to exfoliate your skin and increase circulation (1-2 times per week). Then use shampoo and conditioner, research to find the best one for you, what may help others won't help you. Liz also uses a hair mask 1 to 2 times per week to get that shiny silk hair.
đŸ After showering take some time to shape and pluck your eyebrows depending on your face shape and what impression you want to give!Â
Liz uses face masks 1 to 2 times per week to cleansing her face deeply, then she does her skincare. After applying all the products do a lymphatic massage on your face and neck, you can also cool down your face with massagers or cold spoons for an extra depuff.
đŸ For self care, you can journal again, search for shadow work prompts, think of what things you should unlearn and relearn and don't forget to practice gratitude. Or you can take time to clean your room or house, you deserve to have a clean safe place!Â
Oh! and don't forget to drink water again.
đ§ Time for dinner! (only if you are not full yet), again, make sure to focus on nutrients rather than calories. Don't forget to drink a glass of water with your dinner. You can watch a documentary while eating to keep gaining even more knowledge.
Now, do your oral hygiene routine again. Also, put on eyelash conditioner and serum to wake up with perfect lashes! Then wear a silk cap or do a protective hairstyle to protect your hair from getting damaged while you're sleeping.
đ” Then get in bed and drink a cup of tea with collagen to start relaxing your body. and it's finally time to manifest! watch your mind movie again and use your most useful method (affirming visualizing, subliminals, etc.), don't forget to ask god, the universe or whatever you believe in for signals and help!
Afterwards, you can read an inspirational book like âatomic habitsâ or âthe art of thinking clearlyâ to keep nourishing your brain. keep a reachable goal like reading 5 pages everyday and then decide if you want to continue reading or not.
đ„Ź Before sleeping listen to a guided meditation, liz have one to be more confident and one to attract money, choose one that aligns with your goals!
Finally fall asleep in a healthy sleeping position, Liz sleeps in her back looking at the roof, but you can choose your favorite position, don't forget to get a pillow that fits the position (example: tall and lofty pillow -> for sleeping on your side)
đ Good night!
Woah second request done!! hope you liked this one was pretty fun to do and I might add some of these things in my own personal routine so I don't fall back into laziness, anyways how about you guys??

guide to starting to workout
Iâll be the first to admit i have not always been a tidy person. In the past i said things like âitâs an organized mess, i know where everything is!â As an excuse for not keeping my space neat.
Now i love having a clean space! It gives me peace knowing i have one less thing to worry about - cleaning my room
- start to view having a clean space as a sign of respect for yourself, and your space. There are many important things you need to do on a day to day basis, and that list can be cut significantly by setting a standard of cleanliness for yourself. Im sure you have many beautiful things in your room, and if youâre like me you care about maintaining them. Respect them accordingly.
- as cliche as it is, your bed is the best place to start. It takes up the majority of your room, so having it made daily allows the smaller tasks of putting things back in drawers, taking water bottles downstairs, feel much smaller in comparison. Doing this first thing in the morning is a great momentum tool as well - your brain will view it as a big task checked off your list and continuing your tasks for the day will appear easier.
- know where everything is. Workout leggings and tops in one drawer, pjs in one drawer, dresses on hangers, etc. Being consistent with where you put your things saves you time and energy. No need to hunt for 30 minutes trying to find your favorite top when you can just put it in a specific drawer and remember where it is whenever you need it. Giving everything a place also helps prevent losing small items like airpods, earrings, and house keys
- organize your closet conveniently. For me, this means hanging my clothes in rainbow order. Ive done it for years and i love how it looks. I donât have to rake through my closet for the black dress i want, i just go to that section and pick it out. I also organize by shade (which comes in handy when youâre me and have 50 shades of pink to choose fromđ)
- create a routine. I vacuum my room, wipe my mirrors, and wipe down my desk every week. I typically do my laundry twice a week. I wash my sheets weekly, and my comforter biweekly. Having a routine that you donât have to write down makes cleaning feel more natural and less forced.
- clean when you arenât busy. I donât do laundry on days when my schedule is packed because i know my clothes will end up sitting in that laundry basket and getting wrinkled. Tasks like washing my sheets or cleaning out my closet require dedicated time, so i do my best to plan accordingly.
- blur the line. You are not someone who is messy and wishes to be tidy, you are a tidy person that is human and slips up. The more consistent you are with cleaning your room, your car, your backpack, the more natural it will feel. When people come over they always compliment my room and i take pride in that! I canât just appear to have my stuff together in every aspect, and then neglect my room. Hypocrite alert.
put yourself first - live for yourself and up to your own standards and stop pushing aside your needs for other people.
set healthy boundaries for yourself and others
always find new skills and hobbies to learn and pick up
have a routine that works for you
never settle for less. if it's not what you want, keep looking forward.
be bold - not letting fear stop you from being great
improve your self talk. compliment yourself more. tell yourself things will be okay.
enjoy the silence more
more self reflection!
learn how to enjoy your own company
socialize more
take yourself out on solo dates
walk with your head high, shoulders back
listening to your intuition when you first brush it off. you can find out the reason later.
start being active. move your body. go on walks, go to the gym, sign up for yoga, dance classes, pilates, etc.
continue talking when someone cuts you off.
put people in their place. if your boundaries have been crossed or you see something that isn't right, don't be afraid to speak your mind whenever you see necessary.
read more books. set a goal for each month.
seek for all sides of the story. never come to a set conclusion at first glance or none at all.
take your own advice.
be assertive. donât allow yourself to be pushed around. do what's good for you no matter what anyone says, be clear about what you want in life and go for it.
ask questions. don't be afraid to. this applies to everything.
explore different styles that pique your interest. clothes, majors, hobbies, jobs, literally everything.
journaling your thoughts and ideas.
seek validation from others
living for others when you should be living for yourself.
passively consume content on social media
having FOMO. who cares if you missed out on the latest celebrity gossip, what person cheated on who, the food pictures people are posting on their stories. does it benefit you for a lifetime? no? okay then.
saying "i'm going to do this" and not do it.
isolating yourself for a long period of time
spending more time on your phone than you are living your life. there's life outside a glowing screen. stop wasting what you have and make the best of it even if it seems "impossible". you can always make something out of nothing.
comparing yourself to others
idolizing everyone. celebrities, public figures, influencers....
letting people's limiting beliefs have a hold over you
choosing to keep the victim mentality.
putting your responsibilities and happiness aside to laze around or for other people.
sticking with your circle when you've outgrown them. i don't care how long you've known them for and how good the bond was. if they're not good for you anymore, leave.
letting people step all over you - say no and don't give in to pleases.
pushing your trauma/problems aside. your problems are no less than others. you are important too. tend to yourself.
guilt trip yourself for resting when you want/need to.
abandon your needs.
insulting yourself for failures and mistakes. it's normal, you're okay.
believing everything you see and hear whether it be online or in real life.
don't take criticism from people you wouldn't take advice from. or anyone for that matter unless it's out of the goodness of their heart (constructive)
being a lover girl around men who only want me for sex is like being a lamb surrounded by wolves and im being eaten alive again and again and again because i think they're different and they're not
⥠channel your inner elle woods and dive into your studies with a âwhat, like itâs hard?â mindset
studying will only be hard if you assume it to be. uplift yourself before starting your study session. go on a rampage on how youâre the best student at your school and that youâre successful at everything you do! the only person that will be with you from the beginning till the end is you. be your own cheerleader despite it all.
life is better when you romanticize it and nothing beats playing some music to level your head, looking at photos & scenes of your favorite characters studying and acing their tests!Â
clean your desk, light some candles, buy cute stationary, pretend youâre being filmed, visualize how it would feel when you have straight Aâs and see that perfect score on the corner of your test/exams.
make a playlist with a cute cover and choose a vibe. dark or light academia? classics? rnb? cafe jazz? make it fun. mix it all together or make multiple playlists for the different moods youâll be in. donât listen to lyrical music. i recommend brown noise! and going to a cafe or a library helps me focus a lot. the background chatter doesnât ever get too much for me so it gets easy for me to tune it out.

i love to study at libraries and local cafes. i also use this time to go on adventures to explore my city and find hidden gems. make sure itâs a place where you like the vibe, there are no distractions. something about looking like that mysterious, studious girl who stays to herself >>>>
before you indulge in your studies, be aware of your surroundings. get familiar with the place by grazing your eyes over the area and begin :)
make a checklist of all the items you need. laptop, charger, pens, notebooks, textbooks, a book to read if you want to spend more time at the place youâre at, headphones, calculator, etc!
if youâd rather stay inside, make your area is clean of clutter and clear of distractions.
now that youâve set out a place, letâs talk about time. what hours in the day work for you? morning, afternoons or at night? what weekdays work the best for you to keep up with this schedule?
be reasonable with yourself here. pick a time where your schedule is free and you wonât be distracted by obligations. tell your friends and family youâll be busy during those hours on selected weekdays, not everyday will be the same. life can be hectic so this is where you take responsibility. work around your appointments. make use of your time and run flash cards while you wait to get called in or youâre in line, while you exercise, get creative!Â
setting time away to eat and make sure you drink enough water is not equally but more important than any other thing. take care of yourself.Â
utilize your time wisely. no one and nothing is going to achieve those goals. you are.Â
now, letâs actually get into how i study.Â
create a system that works for you. keep a list of all of your assignments, finals, exams, tests, projects in an excel spreadsheet organized and ascended by the due dates and the progress of its completion. here are two very simple examples i made.Â
as you progress through the list, itâs always so good to see the growing checkmarks! like yes, you did that and you can continue doing so! i always advocate for keeping track of your accomplishments no matter what âĄ
as for day to day classes and schedules, you can use notion or google calendar. there are plenty of cute and practical templates out there to use.
let me know if i should share mine or make some
the most important thing a student can do is put themselves first! find out what works for you. your strengths, your weaknesses, and obstacles you tend to come across and work around them to make the best out of it.Â
weâve already covered the topics of time and place so great! now, that youâre all set, additional things i keep in mind to make sure i am all nice and comfortable areâŠ
making sure i am comfortable. the temperature, clothes i am wearing, if i feel safe at the cafe/library/room iâm in.
i canât focus or do anything on an empty stomach so get a small meal before you start and keep water and snacks with you!
the most important questions of all: are there any illnesses you have that affect your studying and focus? what is something you often find that gets in your way?
as hard as dealing with illnesses gets on a daily basis, itâs easy to forget that it can affect your studies just as much. you need to work with them. i used to think i was stupid, slow, and downright crazy for not understanding material right away or for how easily distracted i got because of my random bursts of energy. then it just dawned upon me one day and i said âoh⊠duh?â
so, what did i do? i found out what worked for me, monitored my studying techniques and personally modified them to work better with my attention deficit.
tackle the important tasks first. low maintenance assignments like reading and writing notes on a section, annotations, and worksheets can wait if theyâre easy but this way might not be for everyone.Â
the reason why i advise this is because at the beginning of a study session, i have the most energy/brain power so iâd rather shift my energy towards the assignments that need more of my focus!
plan what tasks you intend on focusing on that day. look at your assignment spreadsheet. which ones are more important/urgent? due the soonest? write them out in order and follow the list.
immediately writing down my thoughts. iâm very forgetful so making this a habit has helped me so much for when i get any new ideas and remember to do something very important.
find out what learning style fits you. visual, auditory, reading and writing, kinesthetic. making powerpoints, study guides, drawing diagrams, color coding systems, interactive notes. cater your study methods to your needs. here is a pinterest board with examples!
take a self assessment quiz. if you want, check these quizzes out to figure out what kind of learner you are and what study habits you can improve! remember that you can always be more than one thing just because quizzes give you a single result. you know you!
active recall. itâs a study method to help with retention, memorization, and informational retrieval. it reduces forgetfulness all the while actively stimulating your brain rather than writing notes, highlighting text information.Â
separate the topics + subtopics and in the end, when you feel confident, jumble them together.
flashcards! i love them. you can use quizlet which has a spaced repetition system where it will bring back material you got wrong so you can focus on it extensively. physical flashcards and manually having to write them out is also a form of memorization!
practice testing (not multiple choice) online or finding them on a textbook, ask a friend to quiz you or ask questions to yourself and try to answer them accurately.
pretend to give a lecture. i love this one the most because if you know the subject very well, you can pretend to explain it to a peer and even a middle schooler so that it gives you a chance to simplify the material so itâs easy for them (and you) to retain.Â
while using flashcards and lecture techniques, it helps me when my adhd flares up and i really canât seem to stay still or keep from making noise. i can walk around my room & talk aloud, walk on a treadmill, and move my body!
i study until it becomes natural for me to know the answer, not because i recognize the term.
check your work and understanding to make sure that all of the information youâre studying is correct! it wonât hurt to do a little review here and there. you never know when a mistake mightâve snuck itâs way in.
make your own study guide. (if thatâs your method) for every unit and section, covering every topic. this can be on google docs and whenever you learn something new that you think is important to know, add it via docs app or write it on a notepad so that you can fill it in later.
on the go. you donât have to do this ALL the time (or at all) but if you think you need more time to soak your mind with information but youâre on a bus, waiting in line, etc. pull out your flashcards or google docs app to quickly review. thereâs no harm in that! (just make sure youâre aware of your surroundings please)
OFFICE HOURS! go to office hours even if you donât have any specific questions or struggles! itâs always an extra learning opportunity because you can listen to teachers and teaching assistants answer questions you might have later on AND the more you attend office hours, youâll build a connection and get to know the teachers. that is always important.
starting assignments ahead of time. donât put off working on a project just because itâs due in 3 weeks or so. start ahead of time so you donât stress yourself out and cram. stretch them out. plus, even if you donât actually put yourself to work, get a feel of the materials youâll need to know, the instructions, etc because if you have any questions, youâll have more/easy access to teachers for help since not many people will be there at the beginning of when a project is assigned.
ADVANCE READING! this is so fun to do. you basically just read ahead on current/future topics the teacher will cover to grasp onto the information. write down any questions you have and personally ask the teacher for a more clear answer for your understanding.
i love doing this because when the time comes of the teacher covering the topic, light bulbs just keep going off in my head! itâs exciting. it gives me room for me to retain and write any additional information the teacher says.
do not multitask. remember, if multitasking has always worked for you, donât stop! for me, itâs truly better to focus on the task at hand to strengthen skills and concentration rather than having to do 2 or 3 different things at once. efficiency is key and staying true to one task at a time is the best way to do so.
BUT when my adhd gets in the way, be consistently inconsistent. donât unnecessarily guilt trip yourself when you suddenly feel like doing another task. go with the flow. follow whatever your brain feels like doing at the moment! MOVEMENT IS MOVEMENT.
additional tip: take breaks at certain times even if you donât feel like it. like the advice above, it doesnât necessarily have to be resting. it can be as simple as taking a trip to get a beverage, tidying up your area, something easy & light to keep your mind occupied and to avoid burn out.
 breaking down the assignments into sections. this defeats procrastination. it can seem overwhelming when all the information is pieced together into one so divide the tasks into small sections.Â
ex. read one chapter in the textbook, start writing down terms to know, annotate. move onto the next.
study groups. itâs collaborativeâ a chance to ask and also help others on topics you donât know and make connections! the smaller the better in my opinion.
donât look at studying as something you âhave" to do. itâs an activity. a choice. it can either be stressful or something you can easily get throughâ how you approach this will ;
participate! ask questions! donât be afraid to ask questions and raise your hand to put your two cents in when itâs an open discussion! just do it.
focus on the now. donât overwhelm yourself by looking at all the assignments you have due. the task youâre working on at the present moment is the one that needs the most attention and focus.
advice from others wonât always work for you. we are all different! what might work for others wonât always work for you. this is why itâs important to monitor your study sessions, habits, behaviors, and find out what works and what you like better through trial and error.Â
except for when i tell you to take care of yourself. if thereâs anything you should take away from my posts, it is to put your needs first. always!
âthink of motivation as a power boost at the starting line and your foot pressing on the pedal of your car is discipline, itâs what keeps you going forward on your journey. motivation, as fleeting as it is wonât bring you far but self-discipline will.â
remind yourself of the life you want to live, the businesses you will own, the cases youâll win, the people youâll be able to help with your knowledge, the feelings youâll have because of your amazing accomplishments if you just keep. on. going.Â
read the âcontinuing to strengthen self disciplineâ section in my dream girl guide post. i guarantee it will help in finding what really works best for you when it comes to identifying roadblocks and how to work around these struggles.
KEEP UP THE MOMENTUM. youâve been on top of your game so when it comes to engaging in activities that donât revolve around school work, make it worthwhile. stay off your phone, say no to silly distractions and do something youâll thoroughly enjoy. paint, draw, write, read a book, go on a walk! this will keep you going in doing your very best every day and it doesnât have to be a strenuous activity! stagnancy who?
DOING ANYTHING THAT BRINGS YOU JOY AND FULFILLMENT IS PRODUCTIVE.Â
TAKE BREAKS. GO TO SLEEP. EAT WELL.
TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF.
DO NOT PUT THIS ON THE BACK BURNER. you want good grades and to do your very best, that canât happen unless you TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF.
if itâs past your usual bedtime and your eyes are drooping, struggling to stay open, how are you able to retain all the information from that moment on? go to bed because then youâll get a good nightâs sleep and youâll be refreshed for your next dayâs class! OR if you donât have class, youâll be able to bounce back into studying in amazing condition.
PAMPER YOURSELF.Â
good heavens, take a shower, wash your face, go for a walk, move your body, stretch, take time to just stay to yourself. enjoy the silence, play some calming music, watch a show, take a nap. your body is a temple, treat it with love.Â
if youâre constantly stressed out all the while continuously flooding your brain with so much information without resting:
it decreases concentration â you wonât be able to retain any new information (so studying is automatically deemed useless) â poor sleep â you attend class and your inability to focus and overall school performance has degradedâ you isolate yourself from social interactions â fall into depression â difficulty picking yourself back up and the list goes onâŠ
in summary, you will not be able to continue and put in your best work.
always remember that pushing yourself past your limit does more harm than good.Â
you WILL crash and all that hard work will go to waste once youâre physically and mentally unable to show up for yourself.
and if it means you have to get anything lower than a 80, IT IS OKAY. nothing is worth more than your health. trust me.
