ADVICE

Mind Perception Warps Time

  • Time moves faster in our minds than in reality, especially during blurry seasons.
  • Remember there is more time than it feels, easing worries about upcoming events like school start dates.
ADVICE

Balance Preparation with Flexibility

  • You probably won't have enough time to do everything or prepare perfectly, and that's okay.
  • Balance preparation with adjusting and noticing to reduce stress and more effectively manage your season.
INSIGHT

Stress Isn't Fixed by Preparation Alone

  • Preparation alone cannot eliminate stress; adjusting and noticing present realities are equally important.
  • Holding rigidly to plans without flexibility causes ongoing overwhelm and frustration.
