What works for you?
Know thyself. ~Anonymous
There is strength in knowing oneself. It will be very easy to find balance and achieve balance when you know the kind of person you are.
I am in the best position to know what I like or things I dislike, my interests, my passion, my hobby, my strength and my weaknesses. So are you.
My parents might know my character but not as I do. My friends might have seen some sides of all me but they have not seen all. They only know me to an extent.
Finding what works for you will not only save you time but also save you from stress.
Are you a day lark or a night owl?
As a student, having good grades does not come easy, you have to sacrifice your time and even your sleep to study with the aim of having an outstanding result.
So, when do you prefer to study? In the morning or at night?
A day lark is a morning bird. People that are more active and vibrant during the day are referred to as morning birds. Those that prefer staying up late at night to study, work or do other things are referred to as night owls. These are nightwalkers. They work while others sleep which isn't bad.
Night classes
Some students agree to meet at a place let's say school to read through the night or attend night tutorials. And sometimes it might just be a personal decision.
It will be difficult for a daylark to read at night or all through the night because that is how they are wired. But it will be easier for a night owl to stay up late to study without feeling sleepy or dozing off.
Taking nescafe, chewing gum or dipping legs inside water might not help a day person to stay active at night. So, it is preferable that such a person make hay while the sun shines.
Let me share what my brother once told me with you. It happened to his friends and not him. It happened that they were preparing for their second semester examination in their second year in the University.
As we all know, crossing to the next or a higher level requires hardwork. So, these friends decided to go for night class the night before their examination. They had read and read. So they decided to sleep for a while.
Only for them to wake up late in the morning. It was an 8:00 exam and they woke up around 10 which is past the exam time. This means automatic carryover for them.
One thing I like about studying at night is the quietness; being able to read and not be disturbed. Assimilating becomes easy here.
But we must know that the body cannot be cheated on. You have to give to the body what it wants which is rest. After staying up late, the next day, you should try to rest. It will really help. Because if you don't, it will affect you. You will just discover that you are sleeping when class is going on. In the end, you won't gain anything from attending that class.
Conclusion
Balance is needed to be able to achieve our daily goals. Take advantage of the daylight as much as you can if you are a daylark.
It takes focus to be able to read and awesome. Therefore, as a night owl, if you know reading during the day does not really work for you try using the nighttime.
