Dear Commander Community,
I hope that you had a restful break in which you had the opportunity to relax, reflect, and recharge. We are now in the home stretch and I know that coming off of a break can be tough for all of us. Check out this ASSET strategy, Mental Vacation Visualization, and these reflection questions to help you manage stress and find gratitude as we end the year strong together:
-
What are you looking forward to in Quarter 4?
-
What are you grateful for?
-
What is one way you can celebrate someone else’s strengths?
-
What is one way you can celebrate your own greatness?
Also, check out these resources to help you prepare for the CMAS, SAT, and PSAT.
SAT – 4/13/22
PSAT 10 – 4/13/22
