 You are ready to change (the way you study), but are not sure how to 
 get started.&nbsp;</p><p>This module is part of three modules offered
  by the VU student psychological counsellors, we will focus on themes
  that students regularly tell us they struggle with: procrastination,
  stress and feeling stuck in a negative spiral.&nbsp;</p><p>The aim o
 f each module is to give you insights into your own thoughts, feeling
 s, and behaviours - and a set of practical tools that you can use whe
 n you hit the books.&nbsp;</p><p>A series consists of three modules t
 hat you can follow consecutively or separately. It is not obligatory 
 to do all three; you sign up for a single module. This makes it more 
 easily accessible and demand driven. The modules may also be a nice r
 efresher for students who previously met with a student psychological
  counsellor or completed a training or workshop!&nbsp;</p><p>In this 
 module we work on behaviour. Sometimes you want to change, but where 
 do you start? We spend time on helping you gain an overview, of both 
 your short- and long-term plans. This is about taking action and gett
 ing a grip on your day. Useful for everyone: whether you procrastinat
 e, like to socialise, or cannot see the wood for the trees.&nbsp;</p>
