#140: Plan for a successful next semester
from Dental Hygiene Student Podcast with The Happy Flosser RDH · host Billie Lunt RDH MSDH
The Christmas break can seem too short, and full of many things that keep us from actually resting and recovering from the rigors of the fall semester. In this episode, we will review some of the main strategies that will help you stay focused on your plan for a successful start to the spring semester. Sometimes it is good to be reminded of why we are doing this thing called dental hygiene school. Stay focused on your end goal. We can sometimes lose motivation and drive once the "honeymoon" phase of dental hygiene school ends. Remember how excited you were when you received your letter of acceptance into the program? Once the semester begins and you start feeling the side effects of school rigors, the energy and excitement can fade. Fatigue, stress, and demands can take over your focus. You don't want to let things drag you down to a point where you lose site of your reason for wanting to begin this journey in the first place. Take some time to recenter yourself and get back into the game. Focus your thoughts on your "WHY" to keep you motivated and committed to the demands and rigors of the program. You can do this - You will do this! As I say.... "Those who know will grow."
