What can you do?
- Don’t Panic – panicking will only make the situation worse and increase your stress levels
- Write down everything that you have to do as well as their due dates – this will allow you to have a clear idea of what you need to get done and how much time you have to get them done
- Don’t cram – a lot of people tend to procrastinate and leave their work/studying to the last minute, which will only reduce the quality of the content you produce, as well as cause you to freak out and panic as you fear that you don’t have enough time to complete your work – plan your time wisely and give yourself sufficient time to complete your tasks – create a study routine and stick to it
- Eat well and sleep well – as basic as this sounds, your body needs fuel and enough rest, in order to function and perform well – balance this out as well as the amount you get done each day – Breakfast is a must, as well as 6 – 8 hours of sleep!
- Monitor your caffeine intake – a lot of people depend on caffeine and energy drinks in order to keep them awake long enough to get enough work done, therefore increasing their caffeine intake during stressful times. However, most people don’t realize that the more caffeine you take, the harder it is to fall asleep – as obvious as this fact is, most people tend to overlook this factor during stressful periods
