Take Advantage of the Holidays

Written by Andy Martin

Happy Holidays!

By now most of you are winding down your studies and work for the holiday break. After all, you may have a full week or two to take a breather, chill out and do, well, not a whole lot. For some of you this is a welcome break – perhaps even the first time you’ve had a moment to relax in far too long.

But let’s look at this a different way: while everyone else is gorging on leftovers and watching re-runs, this may be the perfect time to get a head start. Think about it. Shops are closed, the weather is horrid, and one can only watch so much TV. You have precious hours to use in a productive way, so why wait until the New Year to launch your new plan, career or goal?
Read up on your course topic, complete those assignments that have been glaring at you, and maybe even finish your final before the New Year! Consider it the perfect excuse to escape your family.
Whatever you do, be sure to enjoy your holiday.

    I choose the quiet option. I have a full time job and study part time. I used the Christmas week off break to chill and plan my goals for 2013. Can’t wait to start ticking off my to-do list.

    Instead of making new years resolutions I’m making new years goals, and my new years goals are to finish my two courses (Anatomy and Physiology Level 3 and Stable Management Level 3)and undertake the Level 4 Psychology and Level 4 Anatomy and Physiology πŸ™‚ I’ve just got two more assignments before I finish Anatomy and Physiology Level 3 πŸ™‚

    Was it only me that found this blog depressing .. shops closed, bad weather, get away from your family. I for one went shopping in the sales, put my walking boots on and went for a ramble in the rain and spent a lot of time with my family and thoroughly enjoyed it all. Sorry but studying had to wait !!
