How waking up early changed my life.

As a student, one of the most important focus of my life is getting enough time to study and at the same time being able to de-stress.

One of my teachers told me the power of waking up early. He mentioned how it changed his life for the better.

For most of us, getting out of bed earlier than usual on a working day is physically impossible and I was one those people that never thought it would work for me, mainly because I thought I needed as much sleep as I could possibly get.

Long story short, I decided to give it a shot and the first day I attempted to wake up at 5am, I literally had to fight myself to get out of bed but failed and overslept.

I kept trying until eventually, I woke up early and that day turned out to be a lot different than the other days. I felt eccentrically energetic. A sense of productivity loomed over me.

That day was one of the most productive days I ever had and so, I turned this into a routine. Waking up early made me feel more in control of how I spend my time.

I also noticed how optimistic I felt while getting things done, not to mention feeling less stressed and tired during the day. The twilight period has to be one of the most therapeutic of times.

Sipping on my tea while listening to the birds chirping and the slight visibility of light really sets a positive mindset for the day. I feel like as students, there is so much pressure to get things done on time that we often forget to take time out for ourselves and that can really harm our mental health.

Being able to give yourself time to de-stress is so important and I feel everyone should try getting up early at least once in their life. It really makes a lot more difference than we think.

Life as we know it.

The term YOLO sounds so simple yet so particularly deep. Sure, we live only once but we also experience each day once which sounds bizarre considering we live every day in the same pattern. Every day that we live, every minute that passes by never comes back almost like we’ll never relive today again even if tomorrow feels the same! This makes me wonder how a small improvement to a 24 hour day can change the way we live it. I sometimes find myself pondering life. How it’s the perfect balance of consistency and inconsistency, how one decision made today can completely alter the route of your life the next day. It’s the perception of realizing that there are so many people in this world who we’ll never know, who will never have any impact on us or whose life we’ll never be a part of. It’s the notion that no matter how slow or fast time flies, it’s always somehow moving forward and never stationary. It’s the awareness that happiness can be attained if we’re pleased with all

Feelings ~ 5/9/23

Isn't life truly fascinating? It's remarkable how a single moment in a person's life can alter what seems predetermined as fate and destiny, yet in our eyes, it's merely a moment of interchangeable paths – that instance when life takes an unexpected yet incredibly beautiful turn. These are the moments that, once entered, leave us forever changed. Perhaps it's destiny gently guiding events towards a perfect ending. There's a yearning for home and belonging, even in places that no longer hold that feeling. Not because of sad events, but because moments evolve into cherished memories, and life has ushered us along a different path. These are the moments that beckon reflection. As you sit in that exact spot, in the same seat, you can't help but wonder how those moments have transformed into memories, sometimes overlooked as life's hustle takes center stage. Isn't it beautiful how one ordinary step on an average day, at the most ordinary time, can become

A writing discovery.

So I've been having difficulties coming up with a blog topic, then I figured why not talk about that? When I initially started writing, I had this idea in my head that the things I write should always have a purpose and be of an excellent caliber, but as time passed, I realized that wasn't always the case. Blogging does not always have to be about discussing things that need to be heard by the majority. To be realistic, it can be as straightforward as writing about your day. Blogging, in my perspective, is essentially open-access journaling. We express our feelings simply by talking about them, and we receive a response that usually goes something like "I can absolutely empathize with this". There's something restorative about writing, even if it's about the most illogical of subjects. It's the human connection we feel while discussing significant moments in our lives that might have a completely different impact on someone else depending on where that m
