Farewell spring break, aloha busy April 08. For most people, springtime is the time when schedules become packed and sex drive is lost in your current work. For students, this could be because of finals, last minute projects, research papers, or even the inability to concentrate on whatever is important. School safety websites will argue that this is because of "prolonging stress throughout the school year." But what most people don't look past the opening statement of spring stress. While this time can be frustrating and a most un-fun experience, at the same time it can be an eye opening experience, or just a review if you've obtained enough time to sit around and actually think about it. In my eyes, springtime is a remarkable event, yes, the entire season. And no, it has nothing to do with the sappy blooming flowers and 'LOVE IS IN THE AIR!' Beleive me, that's the last thing I like about it. So what's remarkable about it? Think of the last timed test you took. Sure you might have been a bit nervous about not finishing in time, or having to hurry through the last of it. At least in my experiences, I've found that it never comes down to that. So why bring it up? Yes, I realize that some people DO in fact not finish their test, or even have to hurry through it. But if you actually put a LITTLE work into preparing for it, you have nothing to fear. How so !
Survival. A human being is able to do an incredible amount of things in their time of need. Sort of like the grandma's lifting a car off of their grandson. Okay, a bit of an exaggeration. But like it or not, survival is an instinct and not something you have to learn how to do. Just pulling it out of your ass is how I like to put it. So wait, what does this have to do with springtime, l2make sense.
Actually, it has everything to do with springtime. Tons of people become stressed out when they're bogged down, and if they put in a faithful attempt, it all turns out fine. Too much school work? Keeping at it will allow you to slowly chip away at the bigger picture. Though people can pull remarkable things out of the air, many people lose faith in themselves and throw in the towl. This is exactly where they go wrong. Throwing in the towl and losing all motivation only sets you back a few miles, and although you can recover from a short term slump, it's not recommended by any one (in the right mind at least) who has experienced an extended "downtime."
So the next time you hear someone say "i've got too much **** to do, it's just impossible to finish." They're probably just being a sucker, and not trying hard enough. Putting the effort into anything will give you some outcome of satisfaction.
