10 Things To Start Or Stop Doing In 2017
Accelerate Living

1. Start getting to know your professors more.

Sit at the front of the class, go visit their office hours, and participate during lecture. They'll appreciate you and you'll appreciate yourself.

2. Stop forgetting to take car of yourself!

Make sure you're getting enough sleep, drinking enough water, and exercising frequently.

3. Start giving people the benefit of the doubt.

We're all in this together.

4.Stop using your phone as an excuse to not talk to people.

Whether you're on the bus or in the elevator, keep your phone in your pocket and talk to the people around you. Maybe you'll make new friends.

5. Start looking outside of yourself.

A bad day can be turned around by thinking about what you can do to help others.

6. Stop telling people you can't dance.

Everyone can dance. Rock it.

7. Start smiling more.

Smile at strangers, smile at friends, smile at everyone.

8. Stop thinking people can read your mind.

Tell people how you feel. If someone made your day by stopping and chatting with you on the way to class, tell them that. If you wish you hung out with someone more, tell them that.

9. Start trying to impress yourself.

The only approval you need is your own.

10. Stop being so hard on yourself.

Strive for progress, not perfection.

Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
