Yeah, I’ve found it so important. Like you said, you’ve been feeling like you put a lot of pressure on yourself. I completely get this and it really does help to look at the smaller achievements! You’ve come so far and you’re getting through a difficult degree.

Towards the end of my degree I would find it easier to say that I was proud of myself for what I had been achieving. This is even something you can do between peers because it is a really great motivation to say congratulations or you should be so proud. And taking in support from family because they cheered me on throughout the whole thing. It’s soooo hard to do this and to have confidence in our achievements especially if we want to do things well. I’m still learning. I don’t use affirmations enough but I think they are a great thing. 

Good luck with exams! You’ll do great 🫶🏻
