Move on

Walking Away
thedailyquotes

Learning when to know it is a good time to walk away can be very hard. Sometimes it takes forever to realize that you're better off without either a negative person, a bad relationship, or anything in that context. Here are some examples of situations that should be left behind and you should walk away.


1: A bad relationship

If there is abuse within a relationship and you can not find any good reasons as to why you should stay, leave. It may sting for a while, but there is someone better out there that won't have to make you think why you are with them.

2: Bad friends

It's a true statement when people say, "friends come and go." Sometimes you may be lucky and find a life long friend, but now and days that is very rare. Many people now are fake and turn their back on the ones who were there for them all along. Occasionally in friend groups, if there is a conflict between you and a friend, that friend is most likely going to listen to the other friends that they call fake.If this happens, you don't need them and let them go.

3: Fights

Text message/ social media fights are the worst! Always let it go and leave it alone! Misunderstanding is such a big issue when it comes to this. You could mean something one way and then the other person could totally take it the wrong way and make it into something that it's not. Alway try and talk things out in person!

4: Work related problems

If you have either a boss that doesn't treat you well or other employees don't treat you well, don't put up with it. There are so many other opportunities out there and usually, there is more than one location for companies. If you don't feel welcomed or happy in a workplace, transfer, or find somewhere new.

5: Class group projects

Similar to the work related problems if people don't treat you well and let you do all the work, but the expect credit, don't do it. Do not put their names on the project, tell your professor. Ask if you can either change groups or work alone, never settle.

As I get older and have to learn how to deal with situations like these, I've learned it is best to just get rid of those negative things/ people in your life. They most likely will just hold you back and do nothing good for you! It is okay to let go and move on.

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.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
