It is getting to that point in the semester when all the work is piling up and it seems like it never stops. Sometimes, you need to take a step back and just refocus. Here are some quotes that help me get through the stressful days:
1. “Successful and unsuccessful people do not vary greatly in their abilities. They vary in their desires to reach their potential”- John Maxwell
2. “Strive for progress, not perfection”-Unknown
3. “There are no shortcuts to any place worth going”-Beverly Sills
4. “Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time”-Thomas Edison
5. “You’ve got to get up every morning with determination if you’re going to bed with satisfaction”-George Lorimer
I recommend reading through these once a day to keep your motivation going. It can be hard to push through when there is so much to do, but you’ll be glad you did. Self-care is extremely important at this point in the semester. Don’t put your needs aside! Manage your time, keep going, and relax. You will get through this!
