What did you learn too late in life?

 

What did you learn too late in life?





First off, I spent a good chunk of my life thinking that asking for help was a sign of weakness. Boy, was I wrong. Life's a whole lot easier when you lean on folks around you. Whether it's in the military or the classroom, teamwork ain't just a fancy word, it's the secret sauce to getting' things done.

Another nugget of wisdom that took me a while to grasp is the importance of taking care of your mind and body. Back in my military days, I pushed myself like there was no tomorrow. Wish I'd known that tomorrow comes quicker than you think. Exercise and eating right ain't just for the young bucks; us seasoned folks need to keep the engine running' too.

Now, about relationships – lord, I wish I'd realized sooner that it ain't about the quantity but the quality. Spent too much time chasing after promotions and titles, forgetting that the real treasures in life are the people you share it with.

Lastly, I'd say don't be too caught up in the plan. Life's got a way of throwing curveballs, and it's okay not to have it all figured out. I spent years trying to map out every move, and in the end, the best moments were the unplanned ones.

College life as an irregular student.

An irregular student like me feels so lost.  As an irregular student, it can be difficult to encourage yourself, but with the correct attitude and techniques, you can stay motivated and accomplish your objectives. Here are some pointers to keep your motivation up as an erratic student: 1. Clearly describe your academic and personal goals while setting them. Determine your goals and why they are important to you. Having a clear understanding of your goals will help you stay motivated and on track. 2. Break it down: Separate your objectives into more doable, shorter tasks. Large goals can be more easily attained and feel less overwhelming when they are broken down into smaller steps. As you finish each activity, acknowledge your progress since this can keep you motivated. 3. Establish a study regimen that takes into account your irregular status as a student and stick to it. Set aside time specifically for tasks like studying, going to classes, finishing assignments, and other obliga...

Midnight Worries and Fears

Midnight Worries & Fears Good midnight, lurkers!      In this age of society where we constantly get information in just a matter of clicks, it is truly a wonderful world to live in. Though in most cases, it only made me feel bitter and disappointed in myself. It gave me worries and fears that I think I only got in this world. (Just imagine me smoking beside you while I try to talk about my feelings. I don't know, I just want to look/sound/feel cool, y'know! )       This is my first blog so I really have no clue what I'm doing right now , but my friend said to treat it as a message or a conversation with a stranger. This means I can talk about absolutely anything!      The first worry I got from scrolling down my social media is my physical appearance. Whether on  Facebook , Twitter , and god forbid Instagram . I just look plain. T oo effing plain compared to them! I mean, I thought I was a 6.26 out of 10 at least, but boy oh...
