I met Carla, Théo, Charles, who shared me their thoughts on their studies and the trip they've done through the last academic year !

I had an internship of 6 months to finance a bikepacking trip to Turkey.

I had some really great time with wonderful people around Europe. Since we wanted to visit the most authentic places, we were hosted by local people in every country.

• academicly :

  get my degree and follow the courses i really want

  also continue to learn by reading books and going to conferences

• professionaly :

  I want to find a job that's useful for me and for others : by organizing ecological transition into big projects about hydraulics, civil engineering, co2 emissions, biodiversity, ...

• personaly : I want to do another trip by bike. I still haven't choose the destination, but for sure it'll be without plane or car

Positive emotions :

Only focus and keep in mind the happy things in your life

Engagement :

By being in movement, you can enter in the « flow », and only think about present.

This is an efficient way to feel good and to not worry about the things. Instead of lying in bed or doing nothing, you must be in movement, be engaged into something.

To find an activity that makes you enter in the flow, you can find a job you love, or do activities that requires all your mind (running, cooking, painting, reading, …).

Engagement is one of the key to find hapiness.

Relationships :

Try to find the people that help you to be in a good mood, to make you grow. Focus on the two sides friendships.

Meaning :

Try to engage yourself in things that you believe (for instance global warming, humanitary, …) will help you to stay in a positive direction.

Achievements :

Set goals that you can look after to show to you and to others that you’ve done big things. It will help you to be more confident.

Unfortunately, we lost.

But we will remember it !

Video 2 : if you take different directions, if you challenge your mind by doing/ thinking of things differently, your brain will develop in new ways of thinking.

day 2 : i ran 10km

day 3 : i've done some bike in autumn with beautiful colors

day 4 : i had a nap & a nice breackfast

day 5 : i worked hard in the afternoon

I also noticed that his is more the "personnal" version, and a professionnal version would be more onto the right side of the table !

• Joy : finding out that I had an internship offer, playing football with my friends

• Disgust : finding that the neighbour was flooded by our shower (and actually all the building...)

• Surprise : the two things above hapenning ;)

I learned that music could

• heal some diseases like Alzheimer

• help you sort your emotions (sadness, joy, etc...)

• help you with your feelings (love, focus, empathy, ...)

Nice reminder to keep in mind that everything can't be under your control and somatimes you just have to let go.

Plan A is the one I would ideally do in a realistic way.

Plan B is the one I would do if plan A doesn't work.

Plan C is the one I would do if I was unlimited (finacially, mentally, etc...)

I realized that plan C is not the one I want : I don't want to be unlimited because I can't.

And the things I wrote down were too personnal.

I always want to go out even if I'm not motivated. Sometimes in the life, you have to slow down and to keep spare time for yourself. The researches I've done on this topic really helped me to cure my impulsive need to see friends.
