how to brain dump like a pro

what you need

a messy notebook (I like the Leuchturm bullet ones)

a pen

a beverage for emotional support (or several <3)

how to get started

grab your notebook, and sit down in a quiet moment with enough time so you won't stress even more. The point of a brain dump is to unload all your thoughts, everything that is stressing you is put to paper. not aesthetically, no cutesy Pinterest vibes; we need it plain, unromanticised, and personal.

some prompts to get you going

do I have any deadlines coming up?

have I been making time for myself and my hobbies?

what projects, tasks, appointments, and/ or plans are currently stressing me out?

am I procrastinating anything?

am I properly looking after myself? (mental/physical health, skincare, hobbies, school/work, etc etc)

am I currently working through any challenges, and if yes how is that going so far?

how are my friends/relationships doing?

is there an area in my life that I should prioritise right now?

do I feel confident and comfortable at the moment?

Review and reflect

take some time and go over your writing; you can underline or highlight the points that you find most important. make this whole "brain dump" thing a routine; sometimes it takes a bit of writing until you actually get comfortable with putting your emotions onto paper (it sounds easier than it is..), but the more often you do this, the more comfortable you will get!! <3

As always, please feel free to share your own suggestions and tips in the comments! <3

love ya ･:*₊‧✩

Mediocrity is my biggest fear

High standards aren’t a flex; they’re a lifestyle. I refuse to settle for anything less than extraordinary in any area of my life. Whether it’s the people I surround myself with, the opportunities I take on, or the way I treat myself—I expect the best, and I make sure I get it.

I’ve learned that if you don’t set the bar high, people will gladly lower it for you. And I refuse to let anyone dictate my worth or my potential. My standards are non-negotiable, and honestly, life is better because of it. When you hold yourself to a high standard, the world has no choice but to meet you there.

It’s not about being picky; it’s about knowing what you deserve. I won’t settle for a half-hearted effort, a mediocre relationship, or anything less than what aligns with my vision of the life I deserve. Everything I do reflects my standards. Every decision is made with my future in mind.

Having high standards isn’t about perfection—it’s about striving for the best in everything. And trust me, the results speak for themselves. The right people show up, the right opportunities find me, and my life becomes exactly what I’ve always known it could be.

Set the standard high, and watch your life rise to meet it.
