I know some of you guys just have finished midterms. And how do you feel about it? Do you think you did good enough? Or did you struggle to study more? Do you expect to get a better grade than you have now? Or just overthinking what comes in the half of this semester? I know you have been working hard on each side of your life. Today, I bring you some tips for self-esteem as a student we are! And how to improve our empowerment as students or just keep going!

1. Have a routine: having a routine is important, I know it is very difficult to maintain it but being consistent is key. Spend 15 to 20 minutes prioritizing your goals for the week, if you can, before each Monday. This means taking notes on how many meetings you have in the week, your assignments, quizzes, paperwork, projects, etc. Consistency in your routine can lead to better time management and reduced stress, which can lead to procrastination.

• Creating a weekly study schedule to set up your routine, classes, study hours, etc.
• Using digital tools like; calendar apps or task management to set reminders and create routines.

3. Studying without breaks: I know that some classes can be more demanding than others, but if we don’t take care of ourselves, we can become anxious or even get sick. When you have established your class hours and study hours, remember to nourish yourself with your favorite snack, meal, or water, a nap of 15 minutes, and don’t forget to pamper yourself –– you deserve it! Balancing our approach to our goals is essential.

4. Losing sleep to study: I know sleeping at least 7 or 8 hours per day could be difficult. But remember, sleep is so important when it comes to getting good grades because it helps forge memories and strengthen learning. Feeling your best helps you do your best!
