Although it has been years since I graduated from school, it still has an incredible and overwhelming influence on me and who I am as a person. Whenever nostalgia takes hold of me, I cannot help but reminisce about those days with rose-coloured glasses. Although my school has genuinely given me some of the best memories of my life, I have had some terrible experiences as well, not only at school but in my personal life as well. Sometimes it felt like I could not function anymore without cutting myself off from the rest of the world and cuddling up in a corner of my room. Although I was hurting inside, my friends, family, teachers, home tutors or no one could understand. Life would go on as it was and so would school, classes and exams.
So, how do you deal with all this while performing well as a student?
- The first step would be acknowledging your feelings. Tell yourself that your emotions are valid and it is normal to feel the way that you are feeling.
- No matter how hard it gets, do not let yourself drown in negative thoughts. Keeping yourself busy with productive activities and getting your work done on time are great ways by which you can keep negative thoughts at bay.
- Adopt relaxing and reflective activities like meditation and journaling.
- Play and exercise regularly or try walking at least 8,000 to 10,000 steps every day.
- Pay attention to what you eat and do not consume large amounts of junk food regularly.
- Make a list of to-do things every day and get them done.
- Talk to people who genuinely make you feel good about yourself and care about you.
- If you need some extra support and guidance in your studies, consider getting a home tutor in Kolkata whom you are compatible with.
Please know that you are not struggling alone. There are millions and billions of people like you around the world and they are doing their best to get better. I would like to thank one of the first people who helped me when I was struggling a lot. He is still the best home tutor near me and even today, I see so many students receiving the necessary help and guidance that they need from her.
If you are looking for good home tutors, then Mr. Banerjee Tutors’ Hub is probably one of the best tutoring institutions you can consider. Last but not least, no matter who you are or where you are from, I want you to know that you are worth all the goodness that this world has to offer.
