Kickstart your studies
You're about to start a new chapter in your life as a student at Utrecht 木瓜福利影视. Embracing a new educational system, meeting new people, exploring a new place, or perhaps even a new country. Although new experiences can be fun, they may also bring some challenges. To help you stay levelheaded, we've selected four tips to smoothly kickstart your studies.
Tip 1: Keep track of your me-time
Meeting new people, getting to know new cultures, perhaps picking up a new Dutch word or two. Even fun things can take up energy. Take care of yourself by making sure you're maintaining a healthy balance of getting enough rest, eating healthy, and staying active. Create time for activities that give you energy such as walking, sports, your hobbies, and time with friends and/or family.
Tip 2: Create an inspiring study spot
Ever heard the phrase "a clean desk equals a clean mind"? There are studies that show that people with clean desks are more likely to be productive. So make sure to create an organised study area by tidying up your room before the academic year starts. Want more tips to help you study successfully?
