4 Ways To Correct Your Mindset Towards A Better Life
Andrea Defilló

Your mindset is you, it is everything. Your mindset dictates your future, makes your decisions and creates outcomes. How you think is how you lead your life, and how you lead your life is how others perceive you. Here are some examples of how to slowly change your mind towards a better, stronger you.

1. Positivity over negativity.

You never lose, either you win, or you learn! We all make mistakes, what matters is how we handle them, and our lives after them. The happiest people don't have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything. Its ok to make mistakes, in fact it is important to, in order to learn and change into a better person.

2. Change is necessary. 

Giphy

Progress is impossible without change. You cannot progress if you do not change. You live, and you learn, if you stay stagnant and scared to live your life, you will never blossom into the person you are meant to. Do not be scared of change because it is inevitable.

3. Be kind, but never let anybody walk all over you. 

Giphy

Know your worth! In a world like today's it is important to not only know this but practice it. It costs nothing to be kind, in fact be kind as much as you can, humanity needs it, but NEVER let people walk all over you, or use you. Trust me people will use you as much as they possibly can, especially if you show weakness like if you are "too nice", so just be aware and alert, or you will get hurt.

4. Hype yourself up, but stay humble. 

Giphy

It is important to love yourself and believe in yourself. It is important for your mental health, but there is no need to go overboard with it. Things like egocentrism only isolate you from people, it causes them to not want to be around you. We all need somebody to lean on, so be careful how you treat your friends. Sometimes you need to hype yourself up because nobody will do that for you and in the end, we are the only person we really have, but we also need other humans, never forget that.

The brain is the most powerful organ in our body. It can materialize ideas into actual things and actions. Nowadays I think your mindset is one of the most important things. How you think is how you act and how you feel. Your mindset can make things happen for you, or stop things from happening to you, it can be the difference between life and death for you. It is time we start taking it seriously.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
