Now that term has properly started and I've had, lets be honest, a pretty stressful week I started coming up with a list of things to do to try and make my life less stressful and more enjoyable. I usually do this but I don't every tell anyone or write them down so I'm never accountable for them but now I am and I can be. So here goes (they're in no particular order):
- Learn how to say "no" to people.
- Use my diary.
- Don't dwell on the past or the future; live in the present.
- Do things well in advance of when they need to be done.
- Be happy with what I achieve.
- But still strive to do better.
- Remember uni isn't all about getting a degree; don't feel guilty for having fun!
- Most people won't judge you over small things.
- Go to and pay attention in every lecture.
- Be tidy.
- Don't stay up until stupid o'clock procrastinating (though OK for work if necessary).
And finally the most important one:
- Remember: I CAN DO IT
So that's my list. Inevitably I will fail on all of them at some point in the year but now I've got a starting point so I can have a much more successful year than last!
