📒 Lessons learned during my internship at Sports.Excitement 📒 🕧 Time management: Juggling being a full-time student and working part-time can be quite the challenge. You have to commit to your studies and learn something at school, and, at the same time, acquire career-shaping skills with every opportunity it comes your way. There are instances when you will have to choose between the former and the latter. Naturally, this does not come any easier when you want to maintain a healthy lifestyle in the process. My experience with the Velosaty team taught me to manage my time better. I would wake up early during the weekdays to work out, and I would reserve four hours on Sundays to meal-prep, so I would not waste time during the week. I would get my tickets done before our stand-up meetings in the morning, and focus on my assignments in the afternoon. At times, I would make sacrifices, such as muting my phone, keeping away from social media & YouTube, and make my commutes more efficient by picking up groceries on the way home from school. Were those sacrifices worth it? Absolutely! Would I do it again if I had to? Of course! #WithVelosaty #timemanagement #professionalgrowth #startup

Personally, I believe activities like a short walk or gym time help me stay focused and energized. A well-rested mind enhances creativity and productivity, benefiting both your well-being and professional performance during the internship. Make self-care a priority! #SelfCare #ProductivityBoost #StayFocused #EnergizeYourDay #CreativeMind #WellBeing #InternshipTips #MentalHealthMatters #HealthyHabits #ProfessionalGrowth #WorkLifeBalance

"You Cannot manage College, Gym, and Internship at the same time." This is what I heard from a lot of people, but that's not true from my point of view. It might be difficult to juggle an internship, a gym membership, and college all at once, but you can do this by learning how to set priorities and manage your time well. Here are some helpful hints: Create a Schedule: Make a weekly plan that outlines your classes, workouts, and internship hours. Establish defined time slots for every task to guarantee a well-organized schedule. Prioritize Tasks: Determine which tasks are most important and, by when, rank them. (for this you can read the book "EAT THAT FROG" by Brian Tracy) Prioritize your high-priority tasks and obligations first. Use your weekends sensibly: Make a thoughtful plan for your weekends to catch up on work, study, and unwind. Make use of the weekends to arrange and plan the next week. And lastly, if you really want to do good things, you can somehow find it manageable. I hope it will help you. #linkedin #fitness #like #comment

Considering an internship program at your nonprofit? Proceed carefully: the best internships - for both the intern and the organization - are those that provide real, lasting value for both parties. Even if you lack the budget to pay much, you can still make it worthwhile for the young talent!

🌟 There's a place for everything at Wacademy during internships! 🎉 Sometimes we play table football, spend time talking about important things and those much less important. It is not uncommon for us to laugh and fool around. 😂 However, there is a rule that we stick to like no other - we give the rod, not the fish. 🎣 So first of all, we work & help each other. 🤝 We believe that with internships like ours, young talented people will easily cope with the job market when they finish their education. 🎓💼 What does an internship at your company look like? Ps. Photo taken in the company's garden. 🌳 Work-life balance is no stranger to us - figuratively and literally. ⚖️ #WacademyPractices #WorkLifeBalance #Practices #FunWork #Development #TeamWacademy

I chose: NOTHING!! Since my college vacations have started, my Linkedln feed is brimming with stories of internships, new projects, and exciting opportunities that people around me are involved in. However, this summer, I chose to do nothing. In today's time, that often equates busyness with success, it's easy to feel pressured to always be doing something extraordinary, only to feel that you're not lagging behind your peers. But sometimes, the most profound growth happens in the mundane moments of life. This summer, I decided to take a step back and breathe (something that I forgot, as soon as I stepped into college life). Instead of an internship, I chose to focus on self-reflection, personal hobbies, and spending time doing things that once gave me joy. This summer I'm allowing myself to reset, recharge, and rediscover things that actually make me happy outside the hustle of career advancement. So, if you find yourself not having a grand plan or an impressive title this summer, remember that it's perfectly fine. Sometimes, the most profound growth happens when we allow ourselves to simply be. #mentalhealth #wellbeing #internship #mindfulness #college #delhiuniversity

Day 12 of My Daily Learning Challenge 🚀 Today was all about balance and building new habits! 💪 I kicked off the day with a gym session, followed by some research to improve my workflow. Then, I focused on my internship tasks and wrapped up some work. 📚 Excitingly, I’ve also started reading a new book and introducing new habits like drinking more water and staying consistent with exercise. Small steps, but they add up! #LearningChallenge #NewHabits #Internship #Productivity #HealthJourney #TechJourney
