So I've been suspended and brought back on a verbal but apparently the general manager is allowed to insult and bully and cast fear and me saying I don't understand what's happening while he's screaming at me for 30 mins about transferring me or firing me is ok. So yea they have issued another letter to have another hearing, atleast it's not a tribunal to fire me with no prior notice. Nothing I do let's me feel ok. I feel like screaming that's wrong. I feel like crying that's wrong. I feel suffocated that's wrong. I am heart broken over a job that hates me, that sees me as a imposition that stops them from bringing a relative in that they would rather. But would that person actually work and care for people like me?

#i'm trying #theantidepressantsmademewanttoliveagain #nerds of tumblr #witches of tumblr #work is not motivating #i just wanted to live #why is everything so complicated #why is nothing is do enough #is something wrong with me #I'm drowning #I'm on fire

one of the biggest things I can advocate for (in academia, but also just in life) is to build credibility with yourself. It’s easy to fall into the habit of thinking of yourself as someone who does things last minute or who struggles to start tasks. people will tell you that you just need to build different habits, but I know for me at least the idea of ‘habit’ is sort of abstract and dehumanizing. Credibility is more like ‘I’ve done this before, so I know I can do it, and more importantly I trust myself to do it’. you set an assignment goal for the day and you meet it, and then you feel stronger setting one the next day. You establish a relationship with yourself that’s built on confidence and trust. That in turn starts to erode the barrier of insecurity and perfectionism and makes it easier to start and finish tasks. reframing the narrative as a process of building credibility makes it easier to celebrate each step and recognize how strong your relationship with yourself can become

#this is my experience so I know it won’t work for everyone #like all things there is no universal formula #we all have different capacities and capabilities #but I like sharing things that work for me in case they can also help someone else #studyblr #study motivation #study tips #university #academia #uni tips

There's a version of the "don't go grocery shopping while hungry" rule specifically for writers where you should never under any circumstances be allowed to touch your draft within 3 hours of reading a really good story. Because sometimes when you read something great your head goes "fuck this is so much better than my stuff I should make that more like THIS instead!" Look at me. That's the devil talking and you should close the document NOW.

#you will make superficial edits that do not gell well with the rest of your work #and won't actually capture what you thought was so good about that story #close the doc. sit down. think about it for a while. inspiration is fine. getting a 'eureka' moment from another story is fine #but if you find yourself comparing your work one to one with someone else's and taking any differences to be flaws on your part then STOP #you will never write good stuff by trying to make it look less like you wrote it #writing #writing advice #guess who just had to go into her google doc history and undo a bunch of panic-induced edits #because she read a fic about the same characters she's writing for?#meeee. they aged badly within just a few hours of hindsight. learn from my mistakes #self-hatred is not a good motivation for creation #fic writing

comfort food.

(greyscale below!)

aaaaa. iii needed to make something self indulgent!!!! and for me that means drawing Bonnie and also putting a frankly stupid amount of work into rendering food!! outside of the onigiri and spaghetti (kind of), most of these were firsts for me and GOD im so happy with the results. i’ve seen a few people say that my art makes them hungry teehee. i hope this illicits the same reaction! please enjoy :3

here’s the greyscale version!! iii don’t think it’s As Appetizing as the colored version and the values are a little messy but! it exist !

#marshdoodles #isat #in stars and time #aaaaa. something something making art to spite it all #i got. weirdly motivated? i literally started working on this Today and it’s done already! woah!#sorry again for being so inactive this past month? kinda just been getting hit with a Mountain of Life Events. alas!#but hey! now i have a lovingly rendered salmon steak #<- sorry isa used that phrasing for it and i cant get over it #said in the same cadence as lightly fried fish fillet #there isn’t really a lot of thought put into this? i honest to god just wanted an excuse to draw food. because its comforting 🩶

TRAIN YOUR IMAGINATION

By taking time to imagine the life you want, you will come more familiar with it. Making shifting and manifesting more natural.

Training your imagination is so simple and easy yet so powerful.

SO EASY I CAN GIVE YOU A STEP BY STEP.

———————————————————————

HOW TO TRAIN YOUR IMAGINATION:

1: IMAGINE THE LIFE YOU WANT

(SIMPLE. YOU DO THAT ALL THE TIME.)

2: Immerse yourself imagining

(Let yourself forget about this reality temporary. Think about the little details of that life. Details in the things around you. Are you in a room? Who’s room? What is outside of the room? What can you hear?)

3: Feel the feelings you would feel while being present in that life

(Again, immersing yourself. Use your imagination to your advantage. Feel the shift in mindset.)

4: Do something mindless.

(Imagine yourself walking around or doing something that’s natural for you to do in that life. Something that doesn’t require much thought.)

5: THATS IT.

You just shifted and/or trained your mind to become familiar with your desired life.

#figuring out (not for the first time) that I can't draw backgrounds and it's destroying me #also absolute minimum doing lineart for once???? it's less likely than you think #i was gonna do highlights n shit but then I remembered I can't do backgrounds and that destroyed my motivation for this piece #6 hours is my max to work on a digital piece I can't finish to my satisfaction #maccadam #transformers #my art #tf jazz #tf prowl #prowljazz #jazzprowl #prowl/jazz #jazz/prowl
