With my lack of posts last week, I don’t think I did the
best job of preparing for a high stress week ahead of time especially since I
went from vacation mode before heading back to work. Usually, I tend to do a
better job of prepare for weeks that I know are going to be more overwhelming
ahead of time. In college, I felt like somehow my tests and projects would all
fall in the same week leaving me with some high stress weeks before weeks with
a more manageable amount of work. I’ve always enjoyed working ahead since I
know I can be overwhelmed when I have a lot of important things due all at
once. Since I am sure I’m not the only one who has felt this way, I thought it
would be helpful to share some tips I have for better preparing yourself when
one of those overwhelming weeks does come your way.
Do What You Can Ahead of Time
You probably wouldn’t be reading this post if you didn’t
care about getting ahead and being well prepared for your high stress weeks. By
keeping an agenda and knowing when these times are approaching you can start to
knock things off your to-do list in advance to make those stressful weeks less
overwhelming. Small assignments that could be done in advance are a great thing
to try to get out of the way. For me, that was usually some sort of reflection
for one of my education classes although it could easily be other assignments
as well.
Start Your Week with a Clean Room
I am most productive when my space is orderly. Coming home
after a long day to finally get in bed and realize that my room is a mess adds
to me feeling overwhelmed. Because of that, I like to make sure that pretty
much every week I go to bed on Sunday night with a clean room. If anything, it
makes me feel in control of that aspect of my week. To make sure that my space
stays this way throughout the week I spend a few minutes before getting in bed
ensuring that everything is in its place.
Get to Work (or the library or class) 5 Minutes Earlier
One of the hardest parts of busy weeks for me is the fact
that oftentimes I don’t feel in control of everything I need to be balancing.
That lack of control can be part of the reason I get stressed. Making sure I’m
where I need to be earlier than I actually need to be there allows me to feel
productive. By getting somewhere and knowing you have a certain amount of time
to get something done motivates me. Arriving early and tackling a quick task
before trying to accomplish something else helps you to feel more productive
and in turn continues to motivate you when working through other tasks.
Put Your Phone On Airplane Mode
We’ve all heard this trick before, but it’s not until you
start to utilize it that you see just how much time you can spend mindlessly on
your phone. If you’re looking to get a lot done and need to eliminate
distractions this is the best thing to do. Sometimes even putting it out of
sight on airplane mode can tempt you even less!
Say No
I am not so great about this, but when you know you have a
lot on your plate coming up try to eliminate saying yes to additional things.
As fun as these activities may be or seem, they could end up adding unnecessary
pressure. Knowing how to say no is something that takes practice but as long as
you are doing it with the right intention, hopefully it won’t hurt anyone’s
feelings and will lessen your load as well.
Go to Sleep at a Reasonable Hour (even if you didn’t get it
all done)
There comes a point in time where you have to realize that
you just might not get it all done. While I can’t say I usually feel ok about that,
I know that I work better in the morning and that by going to bed and ensuring
that at least I’m semi rested then hopefully I can get through the rest of my
list the following morning. The less rest you have, the more overwhelming other
things are going to feel, counteracting your attempts at feeling prepared.
I would love any other tips you may have to help better prepare for those inevitably crazy weeks. I will say, I am thankful that this week is much more normal and that I get to go home without having class or a meeting after school today. Usually those are the days when I am most productive, and who knows, maybe I'll start preparing for my next crazy week today!

You have to get your vehicle investigated now and again. Have an auto repair technician check the whole stopping mechanism. Ensure he checks the brake's liquid levels, working of the hand brakes, and the brake pedals. Ensure he checks the ventilating framework. With regards to the AC, the repairman should check the refrigerant levels, mechanical issues, blockages in the tubes, air defilement or dampness, and tidy collection. quick car title loans chicago
