Learn New Skills Through Practice.

We are human and we make mistakes. Every mistake you make provides you with an opportunity to learn about yourself.

The way you learn a new skill is by practicing. If you want to learn to play an instrument or sharpen your sports performance, you have to practice. The more you practice healthy thinking patterns and behavioral choices, the better you will feel. Also the more you practice good study skills and time management, the more prepared you will be for the test or for writing the paper.

When you make a mistake, take responsibility for it. If you are late when turning in a paper or lab, acknowledge your mistake, and then take action. You can apologize to a professor or lab partner and then be more prepared next time.

We are taught to apologize to others when we have been unkind to them or when we have made a mistake that affects them. But we sometimes don’t forgive ourselves for mistakes. It is important to forgive yourself when you stumble. If you do poorly on a test, forgive yourself. If you make an unhealthy choice, forgive yourself. Compassion is something that we can give not only to others but to ourselves as well.

It’s important to take care of ourselves.

Getting at least seven hours of sleep at night, eating three meals each day, exercising, going for a walk, laughing with others, taking a hot shower to relax at night these are good things for ourselves. Do three positive things for yourself every day when academic stress is high. You’ll be glad you did.
