-My college life
Abstract: University is a place of easy study and full of pressure. As a sophomore, looking back on my college life in the past two years, I have gone through the process of study, work and decompression ... Because of the ignorance and efforts of my sophomore year, it is still unknown whether my junior year will go as planned. But in the past two years, I have had a lot of feelings and gradually summed up some experiences, and I understand that learning and stress are two inevitable topics in college. There is no pressure in study, no pressure. The purpose of stress management is not to completely eliminate stress, but to control the pressure level in an optimal state and maintain as many positive effects as possible.
Keywords: easy study, stress management, university
University is a colorful stage, where you can exude passionate youth and shape a cornerstone of life; You can be unknown or successful in college for four years. University is a relaxed study place, no teacher will force you to study, and there is not much homework at ordinary times, so we have enough time to do what we want to do; But at the same time, the university is also a place full of pressure. Whether studying or working in a club, you can deeply feel the existence of pressure, which urges us to study consciously, study professional courses and learn all the knowledge we don't know. University is such a wonderful place!
Now I'm a sophomore. Looking back on my college life in the past two years, although it is not colorful, it is full of pressure. I study, work and decompress under pressure ... in this repeated process, I am about to enter the threshold of junior year.
When I first entered the university, I was happy and relaxed, because I got rid of the shadow of the college entrance examination and no longer had to recite questions from morning till night. I thought I finally had enough time to do what I liked and planned to go to the library every day for four years. So many beautiful ideas are blurred in the coming life.
When I was a freshman, the course was not very tight. After the military training, I occasionally go to the campus with several people in the dormitory after school. More often, we go to the library to find our favorite books, but we don't read professional books, but various novels. I like reading novels since junior high school, so I am happy to have so much time to read novels in college, but this happiness didn't last long. After the freshness, relaxation and joy of entering the university, I fell into infinite emptiness and was at a loss. I have to continue reading novels. I look for joy in books and then fall into emptiness. I fell into such a vicious circle. I want to get out of my dormitory and my closed heart, but I don't have the courage. Invisible pressure makes me depressed. Until my sophomore year, I finally wanted to get rid of my freshman status, so I actively worked in the community, hoping to meet more people, broaden my horizons and exercise my coordination, teamwork, communication and management skills. Finally out of the dormitory, my efforts have been recognized by the seniors and sisters. In the club, I gradually became an ordinary member of the team leader and editor. During this time, my work was smooth sailing, but I put too much energy into my work, but my study was not smooth. I didn't realize the seriousness of the problem until the exam approached. Finally, I had to recite crazily for a while before the exam, with the goal of not failing. I'm ashamed of it.
When the problem was not obvious, I didn't care, because having fun at work not only made up for the emptiness of freshman, but also got a lot of precious things I didn't expect. I was immersed in these pleasures and didn't care about those potential problems until one day I had to face them. The pressure is coming again. However, this time it is a huge challenge for me: how to balance work and study? How to do both? I've been thinking about this problem over and over again, because I don't want to give them up. I think back to my one-and-a-half-year college days, and I think of those wonderful ideas when I first entered college. Now none of them are there. Suddenly a little sad. I have always understood that everything has a price, but this time I don't want to bear the price. Since then, I have warned myself that no matter how busy I am at work, I should set aside time for study every day and try my best to coordinate work and study.
From the second semester of senior two, I entered the adjustment period, adjusting everything that deviates from the track. Study and work are the two most important things. I tried to adjust, but it backfired. I entered a very tired period and didn't want to do anything, but I couldn't fall behind in my work and study, so I carried on with a heavy load. Until the last two weeks, my heart gradually widened, and I became a happy person again. My sophomore year is coming to an end. If a person doesn't feel pressure all the time in college, then he is not a qualified college student. Four years of college is very precious to us. Only when there is pressure can we have motivation, and only when there is motivation can we make progress and succeed. At the end of two years in this university, I made a summary of my college life, that is: easy study and stress management.
First of all, I want you to know how I feel about stress and the source of it.
Stress is a feeling, a psychological reaction. In fact, each of us has a certain degree of study pressure, but the pressure we feel is different. Moreover, in the past two years, my study and work pressure can be said to be great and small, which also led to my emotional instability. And my sources of stress can be divided into internal and external causes:
Internal cause one: the self-set goal is too high, and there is a gap between ideal and reality. Everyone has ideals, and everyone lives under certain realistic conditions. There is always a big or small gap between ideal and reality. However, I have not adapted to this gap. I always demand too much of myself, strive for perfection in everything, and the gap between ideal and reality is too big, which leads to my emotional instability.
Internal cause 2: the cognitive model is not suitable. The same thing will have different effects on different people, because people's cognition is different, and many of our psychological problems mostly come from our wrong cognition, that is, psychologically unreasonable beliefs. And I have always stressed in my life that I must do well. When I can't do well for various reasons, my mood will get worse. Although I occasionally have different ideas, I feel sorry for myself in most cases.
External cause: improper reinforcement by others, that is, pressure from schools and society. Some school indicators and requirements, social employment pressure, etc. All these have put a lot of pressure on me invisibly.
The second is how I manage these pressures.
First, on the basis of my various bearing conditions, I made a detailed and operable target plan. We should have long-term goals, but it is important to have short-term goals under the big goals. For example, what do I need to do today, what kind of purpose do I need to achieve, and then a week, a month. In the process of carrying out the plan, I compare with my former self, learn to surpass myself and make a little progress day by day.
Second, I told myself to keep a positive and peaceful attitude; When you encounter something you can't bear, you will ask your friends for help, not a person who is depressed; Learn step by step, not with the purpose of solving it once; Talk to friends more, exchange ideas and experiences in work and study, and learn favorable and simple ways to deal with problems.
Third, learn to sum up. We should always sum up the experience of study and work and apply it to practice. The following are some points I have summarized from my college study:
1) Learning in college is by no means dependent on teachers, but entirely on yourself. Self-study is the main form of university learning, and autonomous learning is the characteristic of university learning. If you want to ask the teacher for help at this time, it is simply wrong, let alone the learning effect.
2) Studying in the university is not only to understand the thoughts, wisdom and methods of various schools, but also to establish their own independent ideological system. Understanding other people's things, the purpose is to establish their own ideas, which should be a high-level goal of university study.
3) University study is not limited to classes. Seeking knowledge through various channels is the characteristic of university study. For example, acquiring knowledge by participating in internships and acquiring knowledge by participating in professional training belong to the category of university study.
4) Learning in a broad sense means learning everything useful except professional things. Everything in life contains a lot of knowledge. Maybe you will really use it one day, and you should regard it as an indispensable part of college study.
5) A necessary skill to learn in university study is knowledge search, including searching for what you need through a series of resources such as the Internet and libraries. In particular, the understanding of internet search is also in line with the characteristics of this era. With the development of new technology, college students should have more knowledge search skills.
Learning and stress are two inevitable topics in college. How to study easily and manage stress well is particularly important, and mastering the methods of stress management can make learning easy. We can't live without pressure in our study, and we can't live without great pressure, so we must learn to manage pressure. The purpose of pressure management is not to completely eliminate pressure, but to control the pressure level in the best state and maintain positive pressure as much as possible. Finally, I would like to send a few words to all college students:
You cannot change the environment, but you can change yourself; You can't change the facts, but you can change your attitude. You cannot change the past, but you can change the present; You can't control others, but you can control yourself; You can't predict tomorrow, but you can grasp today; You can't do everything smoothly, but you can do everything wholeheartedly; You can't control the weather, but you can change your mood; You can't choose your appearance, but you can smile; You can't extend the length of life, but you can decide the width of life. If we look at the world with a pair of "glasses", we will have less troubles and more happiness.
