<\/p>\n

This summer has flown by! Between the Diamond Jubilee and the Olympics, I don\u2019t know where the time has gone. Many of you may be feeling the same, wondering how we\u2019ve already come to the end of August. And many of you may be wondering what happened to your studies. <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It\u2019s fairly typical that we all slack off a bit in the summer, especially toward the end of the season. The weather<\/a> improves (unless you live in Cornwall), we go on holidays<\/a>, we spend our free time playing, and we generally let our personal responsibilities slide a bit. <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
If this sounds like you, that\u2019s okay. Taking a breather every now and again to enjoy life\u2019s simple pleasures (such as summer activities) is a good thing. And now that we\u2019re all chilled out and relaxed, we can reinvigorate and motivate for the autumn crack down. <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It\u2019s time to get busy<\/a>. Remember those goals you set at the beginning of the year? Now is the time to refocus. Use these next couple weeks to examine those goals, assess your progress thus far, and gear up to tackle them head on in September. <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
Thinking of taking a course<\/a>? Thinking of starting a business<\/a>? Thinking of adding some skills<\/a> to your portfolio? Now is the time. Sit down, sign up, and just do it. Let\u2019s do this!<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
As always, if you\u2019ve got questions about study tips, distance learning, job searching, or relevant news, let me know and I\u2019ll try to post about it. Comment here or email me at josie@stonebridge.uk.com<\/a>. <\/span><\/div>\n
