Hello everyone!
Where I live we are about to receive our report cards. Which makes me nervous. Not very nervous, because I am a hard working student and i receive good or very good grades most of the time, but nervous all the same. It's not that my parents put pressure on me to be really good in school, it's me. I hate having bad grades and my standards for good grades are pretty high. I want to be as good as last year, no, I want to be better, but that's hard. And tiring. I am always nervous that what I am doing isn't enough.
I think it's good to put pressure on yourself to reach your goals and achieve what you want to achieve. But how much pressure is okay? How much pressure is healthy? These are questions that I am constantly asking myself, and this is my theory:
Doing homework and preparing for tests schould not take up more time than your free time. (School is left out of this, as it is obligetory)
You should have enough time to do the things that
you
want to do, and not get hooked up on school too much.
At the same time, school should be taken seriously, in my opinion, so there has to also be some time dedicated to preparing for it.
You just have to find a balance between the two, which I try my very best at.
So what about you? Do you agree, or do you have a completely different opinion?
