Student’s Corner

Where do I begin?

This is my last blog post on the Green Dandelion. I’ve been very fortunate to have been part of such a great, sustainably minded team. I’ve grown and learned so much over the years, and I’m here to share a bit of it with you:

• Be open and take chances. You never know what will come your way!

• Play devil’s advocate. It is important to see things from more than one point of view, to understand how other people think and where they are coming from.

• Don’t be afraid to relax. Take a break, a quick snooze, etc.. Do whatever you need to do to shake things up and not get overwhelmed.

• Try new things. Just when you thought your schedule was full enough, you decide to pick up a new hobby. That’s fine! Changing up your routine can be good, and can mean making new friends.

• Live in the moment. There is no tomorrow, only today. There’s no better time to chase your dreams than the now.
