the older i get the more it’s clear that being smart doesn’t get you very far if you’re not disciplined. there are tons of people who are brilliant but not disciplined. they have amazing ideas but cannot finish a project. they are creative and innovative but cannot execute a plan. i see how important it is to set deadlines and boundaries for myself an to be disciplined.

Hufflepuffs- teach us your ways.

Well, if you insist…

Here are my top tips as a Hufflepuff for getting things done;

  • Get rid of distractions, so finish any chores that you need to do before you start
  • Play relaxed classical or atmospheric music to help with whatever you’re doing (I personally find it helps me concentrate)
  • Make sure you eat and drink properly. You can’t do much hungry and/or dehydrated
  • Don’t force yourself to be creative; it’ll happen on it’s own
  • Give yourself a reward for reaching a target. Say, watching a favourite film or listening to a great album you love. 
  • Set deadlines and goals that you can realistically reach. 

Hope those help!
