Every semester has a unique rhythm based on the courses you take, but it also has a very distinct week-to-week schedule. One of the first things you will need to do is find the best way to get on top of the week to week without forgetting about the overall arc of the semester.

In other words you have assignments every week, but you will also have exams, papers, breaks, and the end comes up fast.

How can you keep up with it all? I can help you develop a system that will get you set up from the beginning of the term and carry you through to the end.

Okay, you have a lot going on! College isn’t just about new classes; it's also about people, new responsibilities, and a completely new lifestyle.

However, if you don’t find ways to take a break, you will burnout. Many times we mistake mental exhaustion and procrastination as breaks. They are not.

If you find yourself doom scrolling, walking away from work, or zoning out, you are likely not taking a break. There is still a voice in the back of our head that is screaming, “WE HAVE WORK TO DO”.

This negates the break your brain is trying to force on you.

You have spent much of your high school years preparing to attend college. Now you are being asked to determine what you will do next. Are you exhausted?

If you can think of what is next as another class just an hour a week can make all the difference. This is time to try new things and question your future. But it will take organization and asking yourself questions that keep you moving forward.

We all do it, even the most productive of us procrastinate.

Let’s question why- Are you bored? Do you know where to start? Do you see yourself finishing the task?

I’ll bet there is at least one of these questions, if not all of them, that are holding you back.

Looking at the why can help remove the barrier, and get you back to work!
