Here we go,....

Dear Students,

Another semester has come and gone. Now, you will be focused on preparing for your exams. As you look back to the time when you decide to take up your degree programme with UniSIM, I am certain that it was a brave and giant step forward to fulfilling your dreams and life goals. However, along your journey, you may have found yourself feeling discouraged and possibly disillusioned when you find that things are not turning out the way you have envisaged. If this is where you are right now, take time to read the following article and see if you can glean some gems of wisdom and encouragement to help you move closer to your dreams and goals.In the meantime, here’s wishing you success in your exams. And do take care of your physical and emotional health during this important time of your student life. Don't Let Your Life's Goals Fall By The Waysidefrom the American Counseling Association
8 November 2008Most of us have dreams and goals that we once thought were keys to our happiness, but that, for whatever reasons, we just never quite achieved.
This doesn't necessarily mean we're not happy with our lives, but we still may feel frustrated or disappointed about those unfulfilled dreams.
While there's no magic way to make all your dreams come true, you can take action to get closer to your life's goals and to lessen those feelings of frustration.
A starting point is to put the past behind you. Holding on to unresolved anger and old resentments uses up energy and accomplishes nothing. Forget past hurts or abandonments and instead begin managing your daily life so that it reflects who you are and what you value.
It also helps to be realistic in evaluating your goals. In romance, for example, there is no "ideal" relationship or "perfect" mate. But there can be someone who can accept and care about the real you, and who is able to get things right more often than wrong. Similarly, there is no perfect job, but there are work situations that can challenge you and provide a real sense of accomplishment.
Knowing yourself is vital to feeling more fulfilled. What are your personal strengths and interests? Once identified, put time and energy into nourishing them. Rather than trying to be someone you're not, enhance who you already are. Whatever you do well, do it frequently and proudly and you'll find that rewards will follow.
If you want to achieve specific goals, it's vital to take action toward them, rather than simply dreaming about them and waiting for things to happen. Even small steps in the right direction make a difference. Maybe it's a first phone call, rewriting your resume, or taking a class. While we usually know the end result we want, we often fail to take the first step to get to it.
You also want balance in your life. Saying "no" to excessive demands on your time, talent or goodwill will allow you time for the things you really want to do, without the resentment and anger that comes from agreeing to things you really don't want to do.
Reaching your life's goals means that you stop letting old beliefs and other's ideas define who you are and what you have to do. Instead, accept that you, and only you, can take action to reach the dreams and goals that really matter to you.

With Best Wishes,

school.
