Personally, I’ve had a pretty hard week. In the midst of all of the midterms, essays, and articles due this week, I haven’t really had much time for anything else. On top of that, the week we get back from spring break, I have two papers due and a midterm to take. This is a list of quotes I wish I had during all of this.

1) “What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside you.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson

2) “And I will say that we should take a day to break away from all the pain our brain has made, the game is not played alone.” -Twenty One Pilots |-/

3) “Believe you can and you’re halfway there.” -Theodore Roosevelt

4) “There is nothing impossible to him who will try.” -Alexander the Great

5) “All you need is the plan, the road map, and the courage to press on your destination.” -Earl Nightingale

6) “The only way to discover the limits of the possible, is to go beyond them into the impossible.” -Arthur C. Clarke

7) “What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality.” -Plutarch

8) “For a gallant spirit there can never be defeat.” -Wallis Simpson

9) “Do. Or do not. There is no try.” -Yoda

10) “Only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” Franklin D. Roosevelt

11) “Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it.” -Henry David Thoreau

12) “Your Personal life, your professional life, and your creative life are all intertwined. I went through a few very difficult years where I felt like a failure. But it was actually really important for me to go through that. Struggle, for me, is the most inspirational thing in the world at the end of the day – As long as you treat it that way.” -Skylar Grey

13) “Just don’t give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don’t think you can go wrong.” -Ella Fitzgerald

14) “The most authentic thing about us is our capacity to create, to overcome, to endure, to transform, to love and to be greater than our suffering.” -Ben Okri

15) “Just keep swimming.” -Dory

I wish I had these to keep in mind while going through a lot of things at once. I hope these words can help you get through the week. Keep these in mind to keep yourself motivated.

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.
