1.Take a deep breath

There’s nothing like taking a deep breath. It refreshes you and calms you down all at once.

2. Wake up earlier

This is so hard for us college students, but when you wake up earlier, you feel much more productive.

3. Drink lots of water

Water is your best friend, especially after a night out. H2o can only benefit the body so drink up!

4. Make your bed

I find when I make my bed, my life feels put together. It’s always nice too coming home to a made bed after a long day.

5. Call your parents

This seems like a tedious task but trust me it’s worth it. Your parents are always there for you and giving them a ring shows them that you love them.

6. Send a funny text

I like to send funny pictures to a friend. It lightens up your mood and the person who receives the text.

7. Go to class

Yes I know class is not everyday, but you should attend it everyday of the week. You pay your tuition for a reason.

8. Listen to music

Music can instantly change the mood you are in. And it’s a nice way to stay occupied while walking to class.

9. Stay positive

It’s difficult to always be positive, but you can always try. If you get a bad grade on an exam, that’s okay. Don’t dwell on the negative.

10. Count your blessings

You don’t want to take anything for granted so know what you’re thankful for.

11. Love yourself

You are not going anywhere for awhile. And during your life, you will aways have yourself. So next time you look in the mirror, wink back at yourself.

12. Say thank you

Thank you is a short but kind gesture. If someone holds the door, say thank you.

13. Start on the assignments that are due in the future

Even if it is as simple as writing the header on your paper. This will get you ahead of wasting your time in the future on simple tasks. You can also tell your friends you started the paper and look like the MVP.

14. Eat an apple

An apple a day, keeps the doctor away. Any old fruit would do the job, but eating fruits don’t hurt. Even if it’s one, that can help your health and energy.

15. Go out of your comfort zone

Day after day we usually get stuck in a routine. So maybe go out of your way and do something spontaneous. Go talk to a stranger in class or introduce yourself to your professor. Maybe try a new food at a restaurant.

16. Exercise

Everyone dreads this one. It’s the hardest to get yourself to the gym, but once you workout, you feel invincible after. Those endorphins do really work.

17. Watch an episode of your favorite show

Watching your favorite show just keeps things in check.

18. Hangout with your friends

Although there are days where you can’t see them, try to see them everyday. You can talk about what you did that day and catch up. Wouldn’t hurt to watch Bacherlorette with them either.

19. Read

Don't worry it can be an article posted on the Internet. My favorite thing to do before I go to bed is read a chapter in Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff. The content is uplifting and the chapters are concise.

20. Stop obsessing over people on social media

Live your own life!
