Adults are not the only ones who experience stress. It can also affect children and adolescents! Did you know that long-term stress can cause inflammation, depression, and disease? Every sluggish action and negative thought has a subtle effect on our body and mind, limiting our eventual success. While anyone cannot wholly avoid stress, a disciplined routine can help combat stress while improving well-being and productivity.
According to research, it takes between 21 and 48 days for the human mind to adjust to a new routine. Consider the simple act of brushing your teeth. You’ve been doing it since you were a child, as soon as you wake up in the morning, and it’s become a natural part of your life. No one will ever say that brushing their teeth is a stressful experience. They simply do it. Similarly, if you repeat routines throughout your day, they will become natural extensions of your life.
What routines can you incorporate into your life? Maintain the habit of allocating specific time slots of 25 minutes per day for practicing mathematics, reading motivational texts, or practicing music. Consider committing to waking up at 5.00 a.m. every day for 21 days to study.
While the period leading up to exams is typically associated with fear, anxiety, stress, and tension, a powerful combination of a shift in our attitude and simple lifestyle routines can help us associate this period with awareness, positivity, and discipline. Whatever your plans are after high school, whether it’s college or an early career program like HCL TechBee, these positive habits will help you stay focused and productive.
