Prioritize Yourself (#131)

This first year of grad school has tested me in more ways than I could have ever imagined. A good lesson I’ve learned is to take care of myself before I worry about everything else. I find myself feeling grateful the next day when I can start to be productive again after taking care of my mental health first.
