The saying “work hard, play hard” was in my mind as I am currently in the midst of a jam-packed summer.
I decided to take on the challenge of balancing work, two summer courses, an internship, AND a social life. One may think I am crazy or setting myself up for failure; however, I find my current situation to be rewarding.
Before summer started, I knew what was ahead of me. As my responsibilities got closer, I began organizing and structuring a routine that made my tasks come and go with ease. For those reading this, I highly encourage you to prioritize organizing and planning to help you stay accountable and reduce stress in regards to your responsibilities.
By taking on these things, it made me tired more than anything else. What has been keeping me going is the fact that I know this would not be lasting for a while and was just for a season.
My social life consisted of getting together with family, friends and traveling. Although I had to balance all of my responsibilities and miss out on some fun, I would not change a thing.
When I have a goal in mind, I strive to achieve it. Prioritizing my responsibilities was all a part of the necessary steps towards completing my goals.
