Get Active On Campus
The benefit of College is that there are many opportunities and things to do on and off campus. From organizations to events, there is usually always something to do. You just have to check your email and stay updated. Being active on campus allows you to meet new people and connect with someone or something that might benefit you throughout your college enrollment. Getting involved on campus can also help you figure out what works for you in numerous areas of life against what doesn’t, which fits into the goal and benefit of figuring out what works best for you and your purpose while honoring it.
Take Time To Yourself & Choose Your Own Path
Moments of solitude are sometimes needed to get back to where you want to be. Learning the importance of self-care and finding techniques that work best for you will eventually put you in a better headspace when it comes to finding yourself when feeling lost. Spirituality looks different for everyone; therefore, someone else’s spiritual practices may not be the path that works for you, but educating yourself on the various areas of spirituality and self-care will help you figure things out within that area. But taking the time you need to rest, whether that be in the form of a mental health day, writing a journal entry, meditating, or even listening to music while walking outside, might best fit you and help you rejuvenate your spirit which all that matters because this is your life and your path. Just because someone else might be elevated to a higher level spiritually and mentally doesn’t mean you can’t get there, but the healing process takes time and isn’t linear, so giving yourself grace will help you the most in those tough times.
Overall, Whatever is meant for you will never surpass you. Being a college student already comes with enough weight. It’s our responsibility to try to handle that weight and lift it off of ourselves when things get hard. Finding whatever path in life that is meant for you can be challenging as long as you stay authentic to yourself and your being. That’s all that matters.
