I’m sure I’m not the only who has been really, really, really busy with uni lately, so I’m afraid the last two parts of “How to be a good student again” will take me quite a while to write, if I want them to be good enough to actually help people (which I do).
I don’t want to go full radio silence, though, so I thought I could share two of my study mixes :)
This one is great for a literal brainstorm! It’s loosely based on my own thought process as an INTP, which might seem very chaotic and even destructive to an outsider, but which actually consists of razor sharp thoughts which take apart and analyze everything around me. There are smoother, more relaxed instrumentals in it, too that reflect what it feels like to me to be “in the zone”, so, at least for me, it’s a harmonious ebb and flow of ideas.
This one is great for burning through your project! It’s loosely based upon the thought process of an INTJ character I’m writing a story about right now and a very close INTJ friend of mine, so it’s similar to “Lightning Flood”, but definitely not the same. Compared to my usual blunt aiming and freakishly precise bullets, this is more on the freakishly precise aiming and blunt bullets-side. You want to get things done? You want to feel powerful, efficient and in control? You want to burn a clear trail to the goal without distractions? You also want to have fun on the way? Then this is the mix for you!
I use it when I’m
thinking “horizontally”
making to-do- or have-done-lists
using a tried and true, but complex method
doing maths
in dire need of a pick-me-up
I hope they will enrich your study experiences as much as they have enriched mine and I wish all of you a wonderful day, studying in style-style!
