Day 14

Working 9-5, What a Way to Make a Livin’

Being a college student and having a job is the hardest thing ever, but its also impossible to do with out! Unless you have a full ride (lucky you!), survival is dependent upon a solid job and miracles!

Last semester I was working close to full-time and also taking 17 credit hours. I was drained, ALL THE TIME! I couldn’t balance between school, studying, cleaning, and working!

I was stretched way too thin!

I then took a step back to refocus on what I needed to get done. I needed to rearrange my properties and see if there was a category that I could sacrifice from. For me that category was work. I decided to cut back several hours so that I could spend more time studying. I have already in just five weeks seen my grades and mental health improve. That is lesson #14!

Remember to find balance in your unbalanced schedule!

Taking time to notice if you need more time studying, more time at work, or maybe even less time at school and more time with friends! Just do it! Find that happy medium and watch life get easier as you find balance.
