Learning by HEART: Being Busy

From Laura Gibbs
I like this, because it seems ridiculous, but it's something that we have all certainly done before. I also want this to serve as your reminder to occasionally dry out of caffeine. Things start to get weird as you cross the 300 mg/day boundary for months in a row.

Learning by HEART: Tolerance

From Laura Gibbs
I like this quote because it feels like something out of the Art of War, but is advocating peace. It also acknowledges that getting along with some people is difficult, but important, which I sometimes struggle with.

Learning by HEART: Dr. Seuss

From Laura Gibbs
Dr. Seuss is one of the reasons that I think I still enjoy reading today, and this is one of his most famous quotes. Have a good day.

Learning by HEART: Everyone

From Laura Gibbs
I chose this not only because I love Bill Nye (who is likely one of the reasons I am an engineer today), but I believe that it is an important message. Everyone has a different story in life, and that is difficult to understand sometimes.

From Laura Gibbs
I like the advice given in this post. Plus, it's related to something everyone is familiar with.

Learning By HEART: Small Acts

From Laura Gibbs
 
I decided to use this picture since it is from one of my favorite books, The Lord of the Rings. Besides that, it really is a powerful message. Most of us don't deal with mythical evil in day to day life, but when you do something small for someone you can make them feel great.

Learning by HEART: The Sweet Spot

From Laura Gibbs
I think that the message behind this picture is a great one. Life is all about balance, but it is very difficult to achieve. A little stress can be a great motivator, but you also need time to relax. Thanks for reading.

Learning by HEART: Improving Mental Health

From Laura Gibbs
I think this list contains a number of excellent tips to staying happy. It's easy to forget a lot of these things, especially when pursuing a degree with a high time commitment like Petroleum Engineering.
