Like many students in this uncertain time, my life quickly changed with the spread of COVID-19. My school moved to virtual classes and most areas on campus closed. My on-campus job was suddenly not necessary anymore. My summer internship might even be affected. My friends and I all moved back home for the unforeseeable future, so we are all separated. With so much change going on in everyone’s lives, it is important to stay focused on the positive and try not to dwell on the negative. I am trying to make this a learning experience for myself, knowing that anything can happen and needing to be prepared for the unknown.

2.You are supporting a friend or family member through this difficult time. 

Source and recommend a motivational or inspirational article that you have read and have used to guide your friend/family member. For this question provide the link to the article. Explain why this was helpful? (5)

3 .It takes time to form new habits and to un-learn some old habits. To re-learn the new habit requires consistent practice.   

Note down 5 old habits and replace it with 5 new habits that you want to change during the lock down period and beyond. Create a habit tracker and note down these new goals over a four-week period. Most important, track daily your achievement against these habits. You are required to upload your notes indicating the identified old and new habits, as well as the populated daily habitual tracker.  Summarise (150-200 words) your success/failure rate reached at the end of the 4 weeks.           (20)    (just need a concept to understand this question)
