5 Step New Year Resolution Every Student Must Make
|
Posted By: Shauntae Jordan on January 01, 2012 Inspite of all the different roles you may play in your life. There comes a time when you have to take time for yourself. It doesn't matter what others think. At this point and time you must do YOU! As a student you may find yourself juggling several roles: leadership, student, friend, boyfriend, girlfriend, part-time employee, and being you. These roles can have you combating anxiety, stress, and tons of emotions. I am glad you survived those times on last year. Welcome to 2012, the year that requires you to be in the business of SELF. That doesn't mean that you don't fulfill your duties and obligations to others. It means taking account for you. It may have been a while since you took time for yourself so I am going to give you some suggestions on getting started... 1. Make up your mind that you are going to do something for yourself. (Take a walk, listen to your favorite music, go to the movies, relax, do nothing) 2. Start Planning...(Every business starts off with a plan). Buy yourself a YOU calendar. This means put yourself on the calendar at least once a week. Gradually making it a daily ritual. 3. Set Goals...(What have you always wanted to do, go, see....) Make the goals long-term and short-term. Make the goals reachable and not stressful. 4. Delegate duties to others. A good leader of self knows the importance of having a great support team. That may not be the case for everyone. Whenever someone offers to help; act upon it. Hold people accountable for their words. 5. Determine your strengths and weaknesses. It is always good to know your strong points and know what your limitations are. There are times when you will be on top of your game and other time require you to work harder. BE PREPARED FOR ANY SITUATION... For more information on how to become a better you and a better student!
