WAYS TO AVOID STRESS FOR STUDENTS

There are so many students out there asking the same question about tips to combat stress. There are no right or wrong answers related to the question. But sharing is caring after all! 

In this context, as a person who has experienced lots of stress in academic life, I would love to share some tips about avoiding stress that I think would also work with others like I do! What I am about to share is more related to the mental not physical. 

Without any further words, here are 5 tips that have helped me to avoid stress in my academic life so far: 

1. Think of studying as a duty 

A lot of students have been struggling with their studies because they have no idea about what they should do as a student. Here, I do not mean that every student is supposed to get the top score to be SUCCESSFUL. It is a ROLE for students to study, so take it easy! do things slowly and surely. Your academic life is not about the competition to be at the top of the list! but please do not forget that your success is always in YOUR HANDS!

2. Take a step back when you cannot handle everything

It is such a traumatized situation for students when they cannot get everything done to be in its place. It is not a good idea when YOU! as a student trying too hard in your academic life to the point that you forget to take care of yourself both mentally and physically. Take a step back and breath! it does not need to be that perfect!

3. Think of every mistake as a lesson, not guilt! 

Sometimes we make the wrong move and ended up putting ourselves with doubts and guilty. But everything happens for a reason! All the consequences are the results of our actions! If we failed an exam that was because we did not try our best for that and it should be thought of as a LESSON so that you will not make the same MISTAKE. 

4. It is okay not to be okay 

Nowadays, it is very common for some students to take 2 degrees at the same time. It is obviously a hard thing to get every piece of homework done! It is not a good idea when we skip a class just to get another class's work done! But it is okay to break the rule SOMETIMES! Try to organize the way we work on our work again and try to find a balance point next time. 

5. It is fine to walk behind someone and encourage should be felt 

I believe that there are students who want to be the top one! but they never did no matter how hard they try! Successful straight-A students were not born SUCCESS! but they have tried harder than you have! It has never been easy to be successful as we want to be, but we already succeed when we try harder and want to see ourselves become better. At least we are doing better than ourselves.
