[QUOTE="vera.mekhonoshina, post: 173472, member: 30780"] I can totally relate to this - this year, I was juggling my first ‘real’ application cycle with doing a master’s degree. Successfully balancing the two (congratulations on receiving great grades for the first semester!) is a major achievement in itself. It makes me really happy to hear that receiving good grades motivates you to keep going - I know firsthand how easy it is to burn out when you are writing application after application on top of university deadlines. Completely agree with your point about staying disciplined as much as possible. Personally, I found time blocking super useful for staying disciplined and making sure that I don’t neglect my university responsibilities and my applications. Looking back to October-December (when I wrote the bulk of my applications), I wish I dedicated more time to self-care and rest and had more days where I consciously tried not to think about applications at all. I would even consider allocating time for rest/ gym/ sleep/ hobbies/ socialising in your schedule alongside your university and application-related tasks. Keeping yourself accountable like you are doing with this thread and getting those applications out takes persistence. Keep going, you got this! [/QUOTE]
