Middle school, high school, college, or jobs.
They are all stressful in some way and I realize that
Today I’m going to help you through your stressful lives because you deserve time to yourself.
Middle school and high school; Finals believe me I know
Work piled up everything unorganized
A big jumble of work and personal life
Well time for you to separate that because like I said time to yourself is extremely important to the well being of you.
The stress can vary between low and high but it's always there; sometimes it overwhelms you but other times it helps you move forward.
I know it can be a lot to take in but the truth is you need to relax and know that everything is going to be alright.
That the big jumble will untangle and that it will fix itself out.
It helps to know that someone is there for you and I am.
If you are stressed or worried and feel like you have no where to go
Its not true, it really isn’t because you have so much potential that its blind to your eyes but not your friends, teachers, parents, and literally everybody.
I want you to take a minute to yourself
I want you to stop everything that you think you have done bad; test scores, anything that you feel you can hold against you.
Take a deep breath and I mean a deep breath
Focus on everything that you have done great; trophies, good test scores, what ever that makes you smile or be happy because that is what your mind needs to be filled with.
We don’t think we need help until we have buried yourself in a hole so bad that there is no way out.
I’m giving you the ladder, I will even buy it for you because you can’t drown yourself in so much stress that you feel like all is lost.
Trust me I have felt this way so much and the last thing I want is for people to feel like that.
Finals believe it or not is NOT THE FINAL breath for you.
See what I did there: so punny
Just take your mind off of it
You are smart and full of potential
When you get a job of course you are going to experience stress, maybe even more than ever but like I said you have to have sometime to you
If that job can’t make you happy in what you do, think about if it’s really worth it
Persevere for something that you can think about when you’re 60 and say
“Wow I’m so glad I took that job”
Because you aren’t doing anything for anybody and you shouldn’t because then, then that stress will build up so much that you will be in that ditch all over again.
I want you to know that I know you are full of potential basically you are exploding with it.
Calm down and don’t worry because I know you will ace these finals and ace this job or job interview.
No matter what you do believe in yourself and let me help you close that ditch where all your stress is buried because it needs to stay there. So take your finals with confidence and take your job on with confidence but never forget to give a little time to yourself.
What ever you do, do it for you and let your stress melt away as you do great in what you do.
