Solving crosswords is sick!!
I got into it a few weeks ago and I can’t stop. I feel like that & Sudoku are underrated af (still have to get into sudoku tho). Especially when you want to do smth without your phone in mind 🧍🏾

You gotta try fill-it-ins! It is a crossword grid and a list of words like a word search. Just like a word search it’ll usually start you off with a word found. The words are organized by the number of letters and you have to figure out how to place the words in the grid. it’s my all time favorite, trickier books to find.

have u tried to play kakuro? 😏😏😏😏 it's a brilliant mix of sudoko and crosswords. as long as u are cognizant of the combos its splendifiours. and there's so many cool printable patterns online. i also went thru a cross word and sudoko and cage sudoko jag but i found them all quite repetitive n odd- not my love kakuro tho!

I love crossword puzzles!! I got one of the NYT crossword puzzle books for Christmas but I stupidly got the medium difficulty one and they’re so hard

sudoku
the superior puzzle. puts crosswords and word searches to shame. especially when you have a book that includes fun twists on the classic format. just don’t play it on your phone

Crosswords
My sibling brought copies of their student newspaper home for the holidays, and it’s been so fun to complete the crosswords by hand! It taps a part of the brain that I so rarely use and gets me to think creatively. One of my goals this year is to have more tactile hobbies, ones based in physical media, and between this, reading, and completing puzzles, I’m spending significantly less time on my phone than usual.

Sudoku
Mental exercise 🏋️‍♂️, a simple but all-consuming addiction. I’ve played at least 1 game of sudoku every morning for months. I look forward to it, and find myself opening a game in progress rather than doomscrolling IG during those little moments of “in-between time”. I play on a phone app, but I’m seriously considering a back-pocket book of sudoku.

Being COMMITTED pays off
Hard work and discipline pays off! Man if you got anything that you want to go for…be all in! If you stay consistent at some point it will pay off^^ it sounds basic but it’s true man + ah and manifest that shit… which doesn’t mean that you can write it down and not actually work for it no… manifest what you want and then go do the work for it otherwise all that manifesting etc is for nothing. Your subconscious has to actually believe in it more than you might think🏃🏾

try going to a cafe or taking urself 2 dinner
Ngl I feel like sitting in a cafe by yourself is on of the most fun things to do. Put ur lil headphones on listen to some good music while just chilling or doing anything creative (doesn’t even have to be creative). Just a nice way to spend time

Getting in touch w who u really want 2 be
In the past 6-8 months, I was able to discover a new but “true” side of me by moving out of my hometown and being by myself. I saw other ppl who inspired me to get more creative around things like my style, or how I carry myself. There comes a point where you‘ll feel incredibly comfortable in your shell once you analyze what you actually like and what is just an influence of the ppl around you. U don’t have to move out for that btw but it helped me more than anything else
