Inside Campus Calm University

Favorite quotes from Campus Calm University:

Success:

• Being perfect in college isn't the gateway to success and happiness; learning and creating relationships are. Building networks and being excited about something does translate into jobs.

• If you could forget for one minute what your friends demand, your teachers require and your parents expect of you, what would you want for yourself? What picture of
  success do you envision that would make you happy?

Inspiration:

• Imagine the kind of world you want to live in, and then use your unique strengths to work to help create it.

• Want to know the right path to take in life? Meander down a few "wrong" paths first. That right path is waiting for you somewhere along the way.

• Don't spend so much time listening to everyone else's opinions about your own life that you forget to let the most important person weigh in ... YOU!

College Major:

• If someone asks you about your intended career path, internship or choice of majors, do you get excited or do you want to change the subject as fast as you can and talk about something more interesting? If you're bored with the subject now, how will you feel five years down the road?

Time Management:

• Prioritize your schedule before someone else prioritizes it for you. Remember when you were a kid on summer vacation and whined, "Mom, I'm sooo bored."How did she respond? "I'll find you something to do!" It usually involved a broom or a dishcloth, correct? And you could have been playing kickball with the neighbors' kids if you just would have gone outside and prioritized fun. ;-)

Grades and Stress:

• Realize that while graduating at the top of your class is an impressive accomplishment, perfect grades are not your ticket to a happy and successful life. YOU are. Your passion for your dreams and persistence to keep going when things get hard ensure your future success.

• If you view your high school and college experience as a way to develop your unique skills and find out what makes YOU happy in life, and not just as a way to build your success portfolio, a grade becomes exactly what it's supposed to be: a measure of your knowledge in a particular subject--not a way to gauge your self-worth.

Money:

• As someone who did choose an unconventional career, I can tell you that when you do what you love, play to your strengths and invest in the right mentors, the money will follow.

Positivity:

• Positive people recognize that positivity is a personal choice. They realize that when they choose to see the gems that life has to offer instead of the grime, they will be happier, healthier and most satisfied for it. Positive people choose to be resilient, and then learn how to craft the tools that will allow them to live the life they desire.

• Make it a point to take classes from professors who love teaching and who are a joy to be around. Learning shouldn't be boring. If a teacher loves his job, his enthusisasm will shine through and he'll be a better teacher and role model for you.
