welcome to my blog!! I've started my blog with a question I don't even know the answer to. I know what you're thinking, "OVERCONFIDENCE CORE'!! Guys no, I swear I barely have confidence, forget OVERconfidence. This whole tragic idea is to let you guys know that this blog is NOT about me being perfect and giving you advice, cause I'm not perfect and I'm definitely not in the position to be giving anyone advice (even newborns have more mental stability that I do lol). I'm not gonna lie, I really wanna be that therapist friend who has got their shit together but I'm not, so I thought why not get therapy with the world? Okay, I could go on like this but let's actually get started. ACTUALLY. Today's topic is..... (drumroll please) PROCRASTINATION. We all know pretty damn well that procrastination is something that 99% of us do, every single day. In fact, I'm pretty sure a lot of you are procrastinating right this minute- c'mon, you're reading a 12 year old's first messed up blog that you probably saw on her instagram story. Don't go, don't go!! You can afford to procrastinate just this once for my sake guys. Anyway, procrastination isn't just the curling up on the couch eating ice cream and pizza with a thousand-and-one emails and texts waiting for you kinda procrastination they describe in the books and movies. Not everything has to be that extreme, you know? At this stage of this post I'd like to say, if you thought the title was completely random, you were wrong. Yep, procrastination has SO much to do with finding the meaning hidden in our life. So of course I haven't found it yet, duh. Jokes apart, when we procrastinate, we end up crossing the point where we CAN do something, and get to the point where we HAVE TO do something. That HAVE TO is what makes us (by us I mean me) say life is meaningless. Do I have ideas, answers, experience? No, I don't. But I do have something little to tell you all. Don't be too hard on yourself, please. I searched up "how to stop procrastination" in the hope of pretending I know a little bit about it, but I was shell-shocked on seeing what our dearest google, or "google chittappa" as I like to call it (please don't judge me), came up with! One of the main tips I got from the 10 websites I scrolled through was "create more dire consequences". I'm sorry, WHAT? I think I'm speaking on the behalf of most (yes, most, I know a few aliens) of the world's population when I say, WE ARE HUMAN. ONLY HUMAN. And especially for all my girls, "WE ARE JUST GIRLS. GIRL BOSS? NO, GIRLS. PERIOD." Get that in your head, you meanies (oops I sound like a toddler now)! Point is, according to me at least, consequences just increase the procrastination, cause the very reason why most of us procrastinate is the fear of facing the consequences; the fear of failure. People who think creating extra fear is gonna help are, well, just not human. Sorry (NOT SORRY) if you're one of them. Back to topic. I just wanna tell y'all that it's okay to procrastinate once in a while. It''s okay to curl up on your couch and imitate storybook procrastination once in a while, cause you DESERVE it. It doesn't matter how old you are, you still deserve it. Adults may say "You're just a kid, what big responsibilities could you have?'. Well, they can shut up cause trust me, you do. You do, I do, we all do. From keeping track of assignments to working at a job all day, it's all responsibilities, and it all deserves a break. Now, I'm not trying to say procrastination is good. It isn't, and we've got to get rid of it. But we can take it one step at a time, TOGETHER. I know this may sound so common at this point, but guys, each one of us are unique. Let's not try to burn our uniqueness in the process of being "IN", cause trends are gonna come and go, and who knows, if we stop trying to follow the trends, the trends may follow us! I'm gonna end this by saying, remember that YOU ARE LOVED. So don't go being hard on yourself for meaningless little things, cause you are worth so much more than that.
Here is a verse of a song that I think all of us can relate to-
Do you ever get a little bit tired of life?
Like you’re not really happy but you don’t wanna die
Like you’re hangin’ by a thread but you gotta survive
‘Cause you gotta survive
Like your body’s in the room but you’re not really there
Like you have empathy inside but you don’t really care
Like you’re fresh outta love but it’s been in the air
Am I past repair?
A little bit tired of trying to care when I don’t
A little bit tired of quick repairs to cope
A little bit tired of sinkin’, there’s water in my boat
I’m barely breathin’, tryna stay afloat
So I got these quick repairs to cope
Guess I’m just broken and broke
If you guys can relate to this, WHO HURT YOU? WHO DO I HAVE TO KILL!?
I really wish I could stab the person who hurt you for you, but let's forgive and forget, cause I think we really deserve peace.
xoxo,
adhira
to those who make life worth living, i love you, always and forever <3
