在笔记本电脑上工作的女孩
21 岁的最后一年学生 Martin Hrnjak 分享了他在大学期间养成的五个习惯的智慧之言，这些习惯将帮助您发展为一个人，并在您毕业后轻松过渡到工作世界……
我在大学的最后一年，又一次面临着我人生的转折点（这些事情似乎比我十几岁时更频繁地出现）。很快我将退出学生生活，进入职业生涯。
现在我们这些在我们教育期间实习过的学生（必须充分利用自己是学生的能力！）很幸运，他们不会完全没有经验。经验是好的，但作为一个从实习生转变为兼职，后来成为全职员工的人，我可以说过渡并非一帆风顺。
由于所有这些信息在我的脑海中都非常新鲜，我认为这可能有助于任何刚开始大学学习的学生了解他们可以尽快开始养成的一些习惯，这将有助于他们日后轻松进入工作岗位生活…
1. 只工作不玩耍让约翰尼成为一个呆板的男孩
没错，伙计们——这是要记住的非常重要的一点。如果你不为自己腾出时间，那么精疲力竭不是一个问题，而是什么时候的问题，尽管它违背了几乎每个人的想法，但更多并不总是更好。
通过休息并给自己时间从压力中恢复，当你工作时，你会更有效率、更放松，生产力也会更高；这也符合下一个习惯。
2. 管理你的时间
很多次我听到我的同龄人说他们“没有时间”做某事。然而，每当我问他们空闲时间做什么时，大多数人都不知道该回答什么，而诚实的人会回答“我浏览 reddit、Facebook、Tumblr 等”。想一想……您每天在这样的网站上花费多少小时？很多时候，我们访问这些页面纯粹是出于无聊。现在想象一下，如果您将所有时间都用于完成家庭作业，或者从事兼职工作——或者其他任何比无休止滚动更有效率的事情。
3.处理你的感受
不，这并不意味着在你爆炸之前把它们关在里面；这意味着您应该花时间反思自己。让我们面对现实吧，你生活中的他的时间很动荡——你可能是第一次搬出家，如果你不住在宿舍里，你需要学会照顾公寓或共享学生房子，处理账单，照顾自己，做饭，预算，当然还有时间学习和社交。毫无疑问，它可能会让人不知所措，但与其放弃并过着邋遢的生活，不如花时间解决你的问题和感受，然后继续前进。我保证如果你继续前进，你会在某一时刻回头问自己为什么你甚至会担心。
4. 与合适的人相处
据说我们是我们相处时间最长的五个人的平均值，所以要确保这五个人是你不介意做你自己的那种人。这也涉及网络——大学不仅仅是学习，可以说这不是“主课”。大学同样重要的是会见人并成为一个值得会面的人。你认识的人越多，你现在和在找工作时的情况都会越好。
如果你很害羞，这可能很难，但请始终记住，每个人都和你在同一条船上，没有值得认识的人会因为你想结识人而评判你。
5.照顾你的健康
如果现在不腾出时间健身，以后会后悔的。与其担心你还有多长的路要走，不如想想你上次这么说是什么时候；如果从那时起你一直在追求你的目标，你可能已经实现了它们。
健身会让你保持动力，保持头脑清醒——这是科学事实。你越有动力和自信，你的人生观就越好，你就越有可能发现自己处于对你有利的境地。
你越早养成这些习惯，你的大学时光就会越愉快。当然，有益于你的习惯不止五个，但这些可以被认为是第一滴水，形成良好习惯和有效工作的涟漪效应。

21-year-old final-year student Martin Hrnjak shares his words of wisdom on five habits to form during your time at uni that will help you to develop as a person and, when you graduate, ease the transition into the world of work…
I am in my final year of university, and yet again face a turning point in my life (these things seem to appear more often than when I was a teenager). Soon I will be exiting student life, and will be entering professional life.
Now those of us students (must make the most of being able to say I’m a student!) who have had internships during our education are fortunate in the fact that they will not be completely without experience. Experience is good, but as somebody who is moving from being an intern to being a part-time and later a full-time employee myself, I can say that the transition is not all smooth sailing.
As all of this information is very fresh in my mind, I thought it might help any students who are just beginning their university years to hear about some habits that they can begin developing ASAP, that will help them later on to ease the move into work life…
1. All work and no play makes Johnny a dull boy
That’s right folks – this is a very important point to remember. If you don’t make time for yourself, getting burnt out is not a question of if but when, despite it going against what just about everyone thinks, more is not always better.
By resting and giving yourself time to recover from stress, when you do work, you are more efficient, relaxed and your productivity is higher; this also falls in line with the next habit.
2. Manage your time
So many times I hear my peers say that they ‘do not have time’ for something. Yet whenever I ask them what they do in their free time, most don’t know what to answer, and the honest ones answer ‘I browse reddit, Facebook, Tumblr, etc’. Think about it… how many hours a day do you spend on sites like these? A lot of the time it is out of sheer boredom that we visit these pages. Now imagine if you used all that time to get your homework done, or work a part-time job – or anything else that is much more productive than endless scrolling.
3. Handle your feelings
And no, that doesn’t mean keep them bottled up inside until you explode; this means you should take the time to reflect on yourself. Let’s face it, his time of your life is turbulent – you’ve probably moved out of home for the first time, if you’re not living in halls you’ll need to learn to take care of a flat or shared student house, deal with bills, take care of yourself, cook, budget and, of course, find time to study and socialise. There’s no doubt it can get overwhelming, but instead of giving up and living the life of a slob, take the time to work through your problems and feelings and chug on. I promise if you keep moving forward, you will look back at one point asking yourself why you were even worried.
4. Surround yourself with the right people
It is said that we are the average of the five people we spend the most time with, so make sure those five people are the kind of people you would not mind being yourself. This also involves networking – university is not just about studying, that is not the ‘main course’ so to speak. University is just as much about meeting people and becoming a person worth meeting. The more people you know, the better off you will be both in the present, and also down the line when you are in search of a job.
If you’re shy, this can be hard, but always keep in mind that everyone is in the same boat as you and that nobody worth knowing will judge you for wanting to meet people.
5. Take care of your fitness
If you don’t make time for fitness now, you will regret it later. Instead of worrying about how long a journey you have ahead of you, think about the last time you said just that; if you had been pursuing your goals since then, you would probably already have met them.
Fitness will keep you motivated, and keep your mind right – this is scientific fact. The more driven and confident you are, and the better your outlook on life is, the more likely you will find yourself in a situation that will benefit you down the line.
The sooner you build these habits, the more enjoyable your time at university will be. Of course, there are more than five habits that will benefit you, but these can be considered as the first drop in the water to create a ripple effect of good habits and effective work.
Martin is currently studying in Denmark, where he is in the final semester of his Marketing Management Bachelor’s degree. He recently began a new job as a marketing executive in a small fashion start-up Trendhim. During his studies, he worked as a fitness instructor, and strongly believes university is a time where there are lots of opportunities to grow and develop yourself.
