How to Stay Productive Over Christmas Break

I know that during Winter break the last thing you want to do is be productive -- when you all you want is to be snuggled up in your bed binge watching Christmas movies. However, it's SO important to get up and do something productive.

You don't need to be productive everyday and you don't have to do too much work. Just completing some small tasks a couple of times during the week will help you have a successful and non stressful productive winter break.

analyze the last semester

Use your free time to reflect on last semester as a whole. What worked for you and what didn't?

Create a feasible action plan on what you need to improve on for the upcoming semester.

start applying for summer internships

Summer internships fill up fast, so its best to start applying early. The earlier you start, the better!

This winter break will give you enough time to update your CV and work on your summer internship application, essays and all the application materials required.

catch up with school this winter break

This is the time for you to catch up with some studying, assignments or unfisnished tasks.

As I said earlier, you don't need to stay up ALL night with your books, you can maybe take up a subject and spend an hour or two each day revising.

take a short course

Guys, there are SO many great online courses which provide quality content taught by professors from renowned universities. Some courses are free and some you have to pay for; But only for a discounted price.

You can take up a short course to help brush up on your English language skills, Microsoft proficiency skills, Math skills. You can even find courses in any topic you are interested in like fashion, photography, and music.

At the end of the course, they award you with a certificate which you can use to impress your future employers.
