Mid-term week of Senior year I can’t believe it’s finally here!
Fall quarter is usually my roughest quarter at school at least historically. I think that every year I had a class on campus I got super sick and fell behind and found myself just barely treading water by week #5… Correction… Drowning!
This year / quarter is different! In fact, we do not even have a mid-term exam because the professor has been giving us a weekly exam and a weekly synthesis paper. Here is another lovely example of “Consistency Over Intensity” at work!
I am also making it a point to stay on top of my homework, but also make time for my health and fitness.
I think I needed an entire decade (my crazy 20’s) to stumble, struggle, and fall again and again. After awhile I finally got tired and wanted to change.
I definitely do not have it all figured out, but I am finding my way.
I do have to say that I have absolutely loved being a student. It feels like it has been a luxury to focus on myself. I think I will miss school and the real world is kind of scary. I don’t even know what career I will have once I graduate.
You know what? I am okay with that for now. I know that the stress path keeps me stuck in the fixed mindset and that just makes me sick. So I am going to stay in the growth mindset and allow my life to unfold while I continue to work my ASS OFF!
Today was a nice rest day. My sister came to class with me and then we went adventuring. I ate some yummy food today, but am still sticking with intermittent fasting in addition to my no weed, no alcohol, no coffee rules. And my next stops are: Less sugar highway and let’s ditch those damn drive thrus!
That’s my plan and I’m sticking with it! Oh yes, and a morning workout!
Be Real. Be True. Be You.
