Having it all..

There is no other way to put the fact that studying full time and having a two year toddler is exhausting and extremely challenging mentally as well as  physically. Surely there must be some time for yourself amongst all this madness. Here are a few tips as to how to have it all:

1. Include some exercise and do it in the morning while all is asleep
So exercise is basically all you need to get a good start to your day. The reason I say do it in the morning is this is when all is calm and you actually have a moment to yourself. This will impact your entire day!

2. Do not be afraid to ask for what you want
Do not forget that you also have needs. You also need to be taken care of. This will make things a lot better as this will show your partner that you are also human and also need a break.

3. Do not check your work/varsity e-mails immediately as you wake up
This will just give your day a chaos start. First do your morning routine and as you are about to leave the house - take a look at it.

4. Prioritize
This is probably the most important point, prioritize!If it is not important and won't kill you - it can wait. It is as simple as that.
