At my university the semester is half over. We do not have a fall break, but have 5 more
weeks of classes before a week off at Thanksgiving. Many students (and professors!) are tired and
feeling a slump in their motivation.
Here are some ways to rejuvenate yourself:
Review your motivations.
Why are you here? What are your
goals? Why is what you are doing
important?
Evaluate how well you are taking care of yourself. Are you getting enough sleep? Enough exercise? Are you eating healthy food?
If you are feeling stressed or over-whelmed, plan something
fun and relaxing over a weekend. Not the
whole weekend, just a part of it!
Sometimes it is easier to work solid through a weekend and
get on top of things when you know you have some “down time” the next
weekend. There’s no better way to
relieve the stress of feeling overwhelmed than to just settle in and get the
work done.
Above all, keep your focus on the big picture. The semester will end soon enough and you
will have some time off!
Just remember – enjoy the journey!!
