As we wake up each morning, we think that today it just another day. We perform our regular routine of sleep, eat, work, repeat, without even thinking about it. Even the way we do our hair and the clothes we wear become the same. We believe that blending in is better than stick out. You see the same people and perform the same tasks, and that having a regular day is better than the chance of having a bad one. We lose our spunk and vitality that we had as a child, but is that really a way to live?

So, I have a challenge for you. Instead of going through each day like it is a task, go through each day expressing someone who is glad to be alive. You no longer have to watch the days jumble together because there is no real significance and live your life as you should be.

Here are 25 words to live by to make every day a day worth living:

1. Humble

4. Hard-working

5. Friendly

10. Kindhearted

25. Extraordinary

Now, when you go through your regular day of sleep, eat, work, repeat, I hope that one of these words comes to your mind and makes your day not so regular anymore. Pick a different word each day and see how it can change your well-being. Every new day is just another chance to change your life for the better. It’s a great time to be alive so make yourself great while you are at it. And remember, you are anything but ordinary- you are extraordinary.

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.
