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.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
