This Funk

It’s strange how stressful weeks can completely change how I’m feeling about myself. These past few weeks have been overwhelming with school work and exams. Knowing I have all these important due dates coming up, I start to lose my determination. Half the time I’m motivated to do my school work, write for myself and my blog, and maintain a social life. The other half is filled with moments where I can’t find any inspiration. It might sound dramatic, but it’s a funk that I struggle to get out of. Trust me, I know that life is going great. I am so happy with where I am with school and my personal life but sometimes it gets hard.

I just have to keep reminding myself that I always get through it. So many other people I know feel the same way and it’s comforting to know that always have each other’s backs. These are the types of learning moments that are key for growth.While I know that this is a temporary feeling of defeat, once I get through whatever is making me feel stressed, I can get back up on my feet and keep going. When I think of all the things I have conquered and achieved over the years, I am reminded that I’m stronger than how I’m making myself feel at the moment. Nothing is ever as bad as we make it seem. Trust me, we will come out of these stressful school weeks stronger and more aware of how we handle this pressure we put on ourselves.

Keep your head up. I’m rooting for you.

See you next week!
