5 Stress-Relieving Things to Remember

When stressed out we all begin to panic. The work we must do seems to become endless, but at the end of the day we must remember it is all going to be okay. Here are some things to remember when that work just seems unbearable.

1. It is all going to work out.

As much as it seems nothing is ever going to get done, it will. How many times have you felt this way before and then a few weeks later you look back in laugh? That’s what I’m saying is start the laugh early.

2. There is someone who has it worse than you do.

As much as it seems nobody can possible understand what you’re going through. Relax and step back. Granted your work loud could be insane, but life could be much worse than a heavy workload and there are people in the world and even in your community that dream of having a heavy workload instead of dealing with things they have to deal with.

3.This is a learning lesson.

At the end of the day this is a learning lesson. It could be taken as good or bad, but regardless it is lesson. This is teaching you time management and how much exactly you are able to handle, which at the end of the day is typically more than someone thinks.

4. This is life.

At any point in our lives something can change drastically and that can be challenging. You never know what curve balls you are going to face in life and sometimes those can curve balls can bring a lot more baggage with it than most.

5. Smile

Remember a smile can change one’s attitude. Smile at the good things in life because those are the things you work for. Smile at your dreams that are becoming more and more of a reality. Just smile.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
