3 things you can start your semester strongly

that's right

b*****

The first thing is

Manage your time

Managing your time may be your biggest challenge in college

since a lot is going on at the same time

so here's a few tips to help you manage your time

The first one is

Use a calendar

It can be a paper calendar

or you can download a calendar app

I personally recommend Google Calendar

because it is connected to your gmail

which is very convenient

for you to invite your friend or your family

to a certain event or activity

and the second tip I'm gonna give you is

Schedule time to relax

Of course you'll schedule time for schoolwork and other activities

but always remember to schedule time to relax

this is also quite important

and the third tip is

Plan ahead

If there's something important

always work backward in the calendar

to figure out how much time it'll take you

to finish that certain task

For example

if your big test is on December 25th

which is Christmas....

Dammmmnnnn

You have to go backward

and figure out how much time it'll take you

to finish reviewing all the chapters

Time is limited

so managing your time is not only important in college

but also very important in your whole entire life

So managing your time is the first thing

you need to do

to start your semester strongly

And the second thing is

Join a club or sport

If you're looking for excitement

Are you looking for excitement?

or just wanna make more friends?

Join a club, get an on-campus job

volunteer somewhere and play a sport

Doing those things can keep your brain

balanced between personal life and schoolwork

And this is actually something I've regretted not doing

when I was in college

Joining a club can help you know people

who share the same interest with you

Joining a sport can not only keep you in shape

but also make you relax at the same time

But here's a reminder though

Don't get too invovled

that you barely have time to eat or sleep

Number three

Start building your personal brand

This is something

you should spend your whole life doing as well

If you have not started thinking about

where you'll be after you graduate

or how to market yourself to get there

RIGHT NOW is the time to start

Building your personal brand means

to get your name out there

and viewing yourself as a startup

You want people to know

who you are

what you're good at

and what you want to do

A successful personal brandship includes

A tailored resume

A website that lists your achievements

A well-established social media presence

and most important of all

A network of people who can help you

and you can help them in return

The network of people

is always the hardest to build

since it'll take a long time

but it is the most important as well

You'll be building relationships for your entire life

And for good reason

Having relationships with people

will open doors

I hope with these tips

You can start your semester strongly

and get a headstart ahead of others
