We all know the last two weeks at the end of the semester are rough. I mean some days I can't even get out of bed, but this article is all the tips I've been using to get my motivation back, a.k.a this is Motivation 101.

1. Listen to Your Body

The first most important thing you can do is listen to your body, focus on your health. Now is not the time to get sick, especially with finals coming up. Honestly Emergen-C everyday isn't a bad idea. And water is a number one factor to your health. Most people are on a coffee only diet at the end of the semester but it's so important to stay hydrated!

2. Find Some New Study Buddies

Maybe someone you meet will have an amazing study technique and open you up to a completely different way to apply the material you learned. Or maybe they made a review guide?

3. Make a Study Playlist

The best songs to study to are instrumental, here is my favorite Spotify playlist with some more upbeat instrumental music, but classical works too! https://open.spotify.com/user/myplay.com/playlist/...

4. Make a Motivation Groupchat

My friends and I decided we all were kind of lost on the motivation, so we made a chat on the GroupMe app and I had added my friends from home at other schools and everyone started adding people. It became this huge thing full of motivational memes and quotes.

5. Mental Health!!!!!!!

You personally need to decided to put your mental health before anything else. This could mean working out and eating healthy. This could mean taking a video game break or just sleeping and eating. Just make sure you aren't going absolutely crazy over the end of the semester exams and projects.

If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.
