We want change in our life without the actual work. Even if we try and put work into it, it needs to be consistent. It is very difficult to adjust and change your life during the school year.

I'll give you five things that you can do during the summer to make your life happier and healthier for you and your beautiful mind.

1. Change your natural sleep schedule lightly

Wake up early and get through your day; you don’t need to go to bed early. If you wake up, your body will get naturally tired and you’ll fall asleep early. Making it easier to wake up early and go to bed early.

2. Meditate at night and when you wake up

Meditation is supposed to help you let go of all of the negativity and allow you to reflect back on your day. It is a really good thing to do in the morning to get you ready to take on the day with a positive view.

3. Start your day off with a motivational video or podcast

No better way to start the day off than with a bad-ass motivational speaker to make you feel like you can take on the day. They really do change your view on life.

4. Start reading self-growth books

Learning from people who have been where you are is such a great way to want to better yourself. They make you look at yourself and say, “Wow, I can really change myself." That is the best feeling, for sure.

5. Cut out toxic things and people

You shouldn’t be torn down by something or someone that’s negative. You should be able to grow in the way that best fits you.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
