“A tidy area equals a tidy mind.” Understanding how to continually keep your areas tidy can help you adopt a more organised mindset, which can be applied elsewhere.
“Don’t be blamed for other people’s actions, your only responsibilities are the choices you make.”

Here’s some links for summer holiday activities.
Summer Holiday Project #5: Do something for someone else each day, for nothing in return, and keep an activity log. Note down the feelings you have after completing a task.
Summer Holiday Project #4: Learn a new skill – something useful, something you’ve always wanted to do, something that will further your life goals. Practice makes prepared!

We’ve teamed up with Family Lives – a charity with over three decades of experience helping parents to deal with the changes that are a constant part of family life. They have a Live Online chat service, where you can talk to their trained staff online about any family issue, including bullying.
Summer Holiday Project #3: Work towards mental wellbeing. Talk with people, lay to rest past issues, call a charity to get professional help with current issues and feelings.
