Use Energy on What You Can Control
As I worked through my second year into my third in college, I had more troubles balancing school and personal life.

I would get exhausted when I had to write a report for my courses, mediate a disaster between friends, and respond to the comments on my online journal.
I was drowning in a sea of responsibilities, concerns, and anxieties, and that was
when I read an article with a simple insight.
