Spring Semester Tip

Know where you’re going!

Whether or not you know your major, or even more than that, your intended career, it is important to have some idea of where you WANT to be headed. Without that kind of direction it is so scarily easy to lose motivation as you have no idea why you are doing what you are doing: why am I in this math class? Why do I have to do this paper? Why is this homework important? Take a minute and write some goals for this semester. What grades do you want in your classes? What do you want to accomplish in your organization? Take another minute and write down some goals for your time at Stetson. What do you want to have accomplished by graduation day? Take one more minute and write some goals for five years after Stetson. Are you working with people? Are you working outside? What have you accomplished? Who are you? These are important questions. You don’t have to know all of the answers, but know this: graduation day will be here before you can blink. Today is the day to start working on these goals. We know this all sounds very motivational speakerish, but it’s too important for us to care! Don’t…waste…your…time.
