some random thoughts about my student life

I like this post! I think that trying to avoid overthinking is important indeed. Of course, sleeping well is also important for all students.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

I agree that overthinking is almost never the best way to deal with school work. I'd say the trick with using motivation, depends on how much it means to you. I came across a financial crisis last November, and I'm basically starting from scratch with my savings again. Before this happened, my motivation for going back to school to get a Diploma had always been strong. Every time I felt like procrastinating, I would think about my end goal, and it would keep me going. Motivation can be from something big, like what I had. Or it can be little rewards you give yourself at the end of, say, studying for a chapter. Now, my motivation is not hitting me as hard, but it's still in the back of my mind. Except now, I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to achieve it.

I also agree with the self-discipline. It's important to be able to have self-control over our thoughts. Many things are also easier said than done, but we must put effort into making any type of change.

With the sleep, 7 hours average is best. As I got older though, I tend to function better with 6 hours of sleep. Although, back in the past, I knew a girl who only felt well-rested if she slept more than 10 hours. Anything less, she would look very tired!~
