Gatekeeping your mind | Fola Daniel Adelesi
You cannot empower your mind if you don’t gatekeep your mind. Gatekeeping is something that those of us in the media are aware of. It’s a process that we use to sieve information. It’s a process through which we determine what is right, what is wrong, what is good enough, and what is not good enough. So when we talk about gatekeeping your mind, the gatekeeping process for your mind involves the…

How to Maximize Your Productivity Living with Limited Time
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hello, friends! Today's post is a little longer, but it's something I felt I needed to share.
We all have different commitments—school, work, hobbies, etc.—and in today's fast-paced world, our schedules are overflowing, leaving little room for us to breathe. It's easy to feel overwhelmed and struggle with the constant juggle of work and obligations, leaving many of us feeling perpetually busy and struggling to find balance in our lives.
So, this week, I wanted to talk about time management and productivity, specifically task management systems that will help you efficiently plan out your life and find time for absolutely everything.
Over the last two months, I've experimented with a plethora of different productivity and task management systems and want to share five strategies that will help you maximize your productivity and have time for all the things you love.
Embrace slow productivity
This is probably my favorite tip I’ve ever encountered and felt compelled to share.
After listing to a podcast hosted by Jordan Harbinger and Cal Newport where they talked about shifting mindsets concerning the work we’re doing, my outlook on productivity has changed.
Slow productivity is founded on the idea of “resourcing your work so it garners a sense of fulfillment rather than leaving you feeling overwhelmed”. To really embrace slow productivity is means not over-loading your plate
That can be difficult because we’ve been conditioned to believe that beibusy and doing more is a sign of progress; however, it’s important to understand that doing less things =/ accomplishing less goals. In fact doing fewer things often makes our work more sustainable, allowing us to work at a natural pace and pay more attention to quality instead of quantity.
This is probably my favorite tip I've ever encountered and felt compelled to share. After listening to a podcast hosted by Jordan Harbinger and Cal Newport where they talked about shifting mindsets concerning the work we're doing, my outlook on productivity has changed.
Slow productivity is founded on the idea of "resourcing your work so it garners a sense of fulfillment rather than leaving you feeling overwhelmed." To really embrace slow productivity means not overloading your plate.
That can be difficult because we've been conditioned to believe that being busy and doing more is a sign of progress. However, it's important to understand that doing fewer things does not equal accomplishing fewer goals. In fact, doing fewer things often makes our work more sustainable, allowing us to work at a natural pace and pay more attention to quality instead of quantity.
Here are some steps to help you embrace slow productivity:
Prioritization: Identify the most important tasks or goals and focus on them first. Emphasize quality over quantity and aim to produce meaningful results rather than simply checking items off a list.
Break Tasks into Smaller Steps: Break down larger tasks into smaller, more manageable steps. Personally, this has helped make tasks feel less overwhelming and helped me maintain focus and momentum.
Set Realistic Expectations: Setting realistic expectations is crucial. Understand the time you have and what you can accomplish within it to avoid overcommitting, particularly to tasks that don't align with your priorities.
Finding a planning system that work for you
Effectively managing your time requires a solid organizational framework. The planning system you choose plays a crucial role in maximizing your productivity. This means finding the right digital or tactile analog tool that works for you.
Digital Tools: There is a crazy amount of digital planning tools available that comprise different features such as to-do lists, task and project managers, and progress trackers. I’m slightly biased here, but apps like Notion, TickTick, obsidian, Trello, or Asana are good for organizing tasks, setting deadlines, and tracking progress on a project. Additionally, using a calendar app such as Google Calendar, outlook or, Fantastical can you schedule your time effectively and avoid overcommitting.
Pen and Paper: If you’re someone who prefers the simplicity and tactile experience of traditional pen and paper planners, processes such as bullet journaling or simply using a journal to keep note of all your commitments offers a flexible system for organizing tasks, events, and notes in a customizable format. One perk about using pen and paper is that it offers a level of permanence that can’t be found in digital tools. Once you write something down (depending on the tool you write with) it’s permanent.
Hybrid Approach: You can also combine both of these methods to create an experience that works for you. For example, you can use a digital calendar while also keeping a bullet journal as a task manger or place to reflect.
Personally, I find that the hybrid approach works best for me.
Time blocking
Time blocking works because it provides a structured approach to managing your time effectively.
Time blocking is the process of dividing your day into blocks of time dedicated to specific tasks or activities—allowing you to minimize distractions and maintain focus on the task at hand.
Here’s what I’ve found to be the best way to implement time blocking:
Identify Priorities: Start by identifying your most important tasks and goals for the day or week. These are the activities that align with your overall objectives, values, and contribute to meaningful progress.
Choose Time Slots: Next, choose specific time slots in your schedule for each task or activity. It’s crucial to be realistic about the amount of time needed for each task, and consider factors such as your peak productivity hours and natural energy levels.
Time blocking may seem antithetical to flexibility. However, regular review and adjustment is a good way to make modifications in response to changing priorities or interruptions.

Knowledge and experience, in any and all areas of life, are more than just information. They protect you against manipulation and control. The less we know, the more vulnerable we are to being swayed by half truths and misleading narratives from other people. With every fact we learn, every book we read, and every conversation we engage in, we not only defend ourselves from negative influences, but also open ourselves to personal growth and social progress. Ignorance might be bliss for some, but it's a dangerous bliss that leaves one susceptible to control. Learning is the key to freedom, autonomy, and a better future. When you rely on yourself and succeed, it boosts your confidence.
When it comes to relationships, trust is the foundation of a strong bond. Trusting a partner means believing in their integrity, intentions, and actions, and feeling secure in the knowledge that they prioritize your well being. A relationship also offers comfort and companionship, where you can be their authentic self without the fear of bring judged. However, while trust and comfort are relationship essentials, they should not overshadow the importance of maintaining your own individuality. A healthy relationship celebrates the uniqueness of both partners and does not require submitting your own thoughts or individuality for the sake of the other. It's important to express personal opinions, beliefs, and values, ensuring they are heard and respected. Over relying on other people creates a cycle of dependency, hindering personal growth and potentially straining relationships in the long run.

I feel like you would love Wander Over Yonder.
I WOULD AND I DO!!!!! I’VE SEEN WOEFULLY LITTLE OF IT and really, really, really want to commit to it. both times i’ve tried to watch it i’ve loved it immensely. i really need to commit myselffffff!! but in what very very little i’ve seen i’ve adored it. i love the energy i love the cartooning I LOVE WANDER!!!!!!!!!! i feel like since i’ve gotten into LT, where every character is some sort of absolute freak and has their own unique set of issues, i haven’t been Advertising my sheer adoration of obnoxiously happy little guys (to the chagrin of everyone around them). characters like SpongeBob, Lazlo, Chowder, Stimpy…. it’s definitely my favorite character archetype and Wander more than fits the criteria which is why i need to watch!!!! i’ve had multiple people say it’s an Eliza Show and i very much stand by that having only seen like 2 episodes
also, the prophecy is fortold because i drew this exact pose with Lazlo and Lumpus once upon a millenium. which i can’t look for right now because i’m on mobile. but mark my woids.

When we overcome personal challenges and hardships, we begin deep inner reflections, which enable us to recognize that our power can never be taken or given away, only a situation can take away a moment of your time or inner peace. Once we recognize that our past circumstances do not define us, that we are free to stand strong in our true peaceful nature, it enables personal awareness and spiritual growth. When we embrace coexistence, unity, and diversity of opinions, or seek guidance from others which mirror our current circumstance, we then recognize that we can overcome anything set in our path by evoking trust and strength in our will. By transmuting the energy from a negative frequency, to further offset or regulate a negative circumstance, enables us to neutralize an outcome which opens the possibility of resolutions, prosperity, stability, and growth. When we align our thoughts, emotions, and actions, to foster positive results, we then stand firm in our power to foster the change that is needed.

`*:;,.★ exploring resilience ☆・:.,;*
the powerful concept of resilience—the ability to bounce back from challenges, setbacks, and adversity stronger than before. life is full of ups and downs, but with the right mindset and skills, we can navigate even the toughest times with grace and courage.
cultivate a growth mindset: embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and learning. instead of viewing setbacks as failures, see them as valuable lessons that can help you become stronger and more resilient.
practice self-care: prioritize your physical, emotional, and mental well-being. engage in activities that nourish your soul, whether it's meditation, exercise, journaling, or spending time with loved ones. remember that self-care is not selfish—it's essential for building resilience.
build a strong support network: surround yourself with positive, supportive people who uplift and encourage you. lean on friends, family, mentors, or support groups during tough times, and don't hesitate to ask for help when you need it.
develop coping mechanisms: find healthy ways to cope with stress and adversity. this could include deep breathing exercises, mindfulness practices, creative outlets like art or music, or seeking professional help from a therapist or counselor.
practice gratitude: focus on the blessings in your life, no matter how small. cultivating an attitude of gratitude can help shift your perspective and build resilience in the face of challenges.
stay flexible and adaptable: life is unpredictable, and things don't always go according to plan. practice flexibility and adaptability, and be willing to adjust your goals and expectations as needed.
embrace failures as stepping stones: reframing failure as a natural part of the learning process can help build resilience. instead of dwelling on past mistakes, use them as stepping stones toward future success.
remember, resilience is not about never experiencing adversity—it's about how we respond to it.
-with love, pastel
