Thank you for this, I'm having a lot of free time until April when I go into graduation. I'm having trouble finding balance in doing "work", since I want to do some things with all the time I have. And, just doing nothing and relaxing, enjoying the free time I have. There are definitely some tips in here I'm going to use!

Your welcome, and thank you for sharing as well. I hear you on trying to find that balance. Late last year I ended up actually leaving my full-time job to create more time for learning code. (That is a future post. lol)

In doing so I also felt a bit overwhelmed by all the free time. From the above list #2, #7, #8, #10 & #16 helped a lot during that time.

I took some time to re-invest in my health, planned out visually what the most important areas to focus on, and then kept my early work schedule since it has worked so well in the past. All of that allowed me to relax (#23) guilt-free as well. :)

You got this! Best of luck with your studies.
