A Few Things To Add To Your To-do List This Month!

A few things to add to your to-do list this month!

the weekend's here

Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.

Highschool tips that no one told me.

Explore. Clubs. Extra curriculars. Sports. Anything. When you get to freshman year, start exploring. Even if you're a sophomore, junior or senior. Start exploring because you need to be involved in something other than your school. (But don't overdo it!! Max of 2-3 extracurriculars)

Do your homework/assignments as soon as you can.

Get a planner/calender. Update it daily.

Exercise. Dance. Jog. Jump. Do whatever you want but exercise atleast 3 times a week.

Sleep earlier. Before 11 preferably.

Whatever you do, don't back answer a teacher.

Allow yourself to relax but don't overdo it.

Choose your friends carefully. Keep 2 or 3 close friends.

Don't just blabber everything about anything. Think before you speak

Don't involve yourself in any sorts of drama. Clear everything out before it even starts cause it's definitely gonna backfire if you don't

Choose your friends carefully. I mean, very carefully.

Time is investment, use it to your advantage.

For exams, solve past year question papers!!!

Have a doubt in something? Go ask your teacher (it will save you the trouble)

YouTube has a wide variety of videos for you to learn from

Study everyday. Just for an hour. It's more than enough.

Read. Read. Read. Write. Write. Write. Anything.

Honestly, get a study group. (I mean it. Don't study together in the same place. Just send important questions and ask doubts.)

Study things that were thought in previous classes. You will be behind the class but it definitely helps during exams/tests.

Most of all, try to enjoy. You won't get back your highschool years. I realise that now.

I did a similar post a few months ago. The mistakes that I made during my junior year. You can find it here.

Hope this helps! :D

why is it important to calm your mind?

calming your mind is important for several reasons.

it helps reduce stress, which can improve your overall well-being. for example, practicing meditation or yoga can lower stress levels and enhance your emotional health.

a calm mind also improves focus, allowing you to concentrate better and be more productive, much like how reading a good book can help you escape and relax.

additionally, it enhances emotional health by helping you manage your emotions more effectively, leading to better mental health. for instance, journaling your thoughts and feelings can clear your mind and provide emotional clarity.

with a clear and calm mind, you can make more thoughtful and rational decisions, similar to how taking a walk in nature can help you think more clearly. calming your mind also improves sleep quality, which is essential for overall health.

engaging in activities like listening to calming music or taking a warm bath can promote better sleep. a relaxed mind is more open to new ideas and creative thinking, much like how drawing or painting can spark creativity.

finally, chronic stress can lead to various health issues, so calming your mind can have positive effects on your physical health as well. taking time to calm your mind can lead to a happier, healthier, and more balanced life.
