Staying Motivated through College; Yes, it is Possible!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Jax State chapter.

Coming from a college senior (wow, that makes me feel old), I have found several ways to help stay motivated through college; even on your worst days, when you feel like you just cannot manage your social life, school, and everything else college seems to make you manage all at once.

 

  1. Remember, you don’t have to have it all figured out.

You’re so young… breathe a little and enjoy the fun parts of your life that won’t always be there!  Everything happens for a reason, and everything comes with time.

 

  1. Plan your week before it starts.

Buy some fun colored pens and cute planner and organize your life! Personally, I like to take time on Sunday nights to plan out my week, highlight important dates (tests and due dates), and get a visual image of what that week will look like.

 

  1. Take time to focus on yourself.

College is chaotic. It’s so important to take time to focus on yourself.
