Pirate Tip of the Week: Find Your Rhythm!
|
-
Establish a Routine: Take some time to create a schedule that balances your classes, study sessions, and personal activities. Having a regular routine can make your days more predictable and reduce stress.
- Stay Consistent: Adapting to a new routine can be challenging at first, but persistence pays off. Stick to your schedule as closely as possible, even on days when motivation might waver.
-
Plan Your Breaks: Short, intentional breaks can make a big difference in maintaining focus and energy. Use breaks to recharge—step outside, stretch, or enjoy a quick snack. This helps you avoid burnout and keeps your mind fresh for your next task.
