There are times when you have SO many things on that it seems impossible to get it all done. On top of this, the stress or lack of sleep may leave you feeling absolutely empty and without any motivation whatsoever. At times like this, you most likely need to take small breaks to regather yourself. Make sure you are specific about what you will do in these breaks and how long they will last. If you do not specify this to yourself, you are flirting with the all-famous phenomenon of procrastination and avoidance. It is important to have a balance, but it is also important to make sure that you are still progressing so that this time of ‘busy’ can pass and the strain on your mind and body has an end point. Equally, it is important to plan and break down the tasks that are weighing on you and plan when and how you will get them done. Once this plan is in place, there is less need to worry and fret and it will keep you motivated. The most important thing in this time is to know that it will pass, just as everything else does, and you will be stronger and better for this experience. Remember, everyone goes through these times – you can shift your attitude to be one expecting growth or disaster, and that is up to you.
