I have taken on a position that I have never held before, and I don't know how to calm my anxiety.

Hello, June here. I'm trying to become a counselor.

As a freshman, you're facing the challenge of upgrading your studies and taking on a new role at the same time. I can fully appreciate how stressful and anxious you must be feeling right now. My daughter is also a freshman this year, and I know firsthand how difficult and broad the content of learning can be when moving from junior high to high school. So, I really think you're amazing!

You said you got into a junior college through a program that lets students continue their studies at a university after graduating from a junior college. Your entrance exam scores were OK, and your grades were stable, which is great. I can see you're a very good child who still doesn't feel good enough, though. I want to hug you and pat you on the back and say, "My child, you are really, really good!"

Now, let's take a look at your questions and how to better face your current high school life. I have a few suggestions for you:

Let go of the image you present to the world and relax.

It's clear you set high standards for yourself. You're probably the pride of your family. It's great to be excellent sometimes, but it's tough to be excellent all the time.

To keep up your excellent work, you'll need to keep putting in the effort. You might find that your excellence needs to become more diverse, and you'll need to excel not only in your studies but also in your talents, communication skills, management skills, organizational skills, and so on. The list is endless, and there's no end in sight. Stress is also a possibility. You might even lose sight of why you started this journey in the first place, focusing only on being good for the sake of being good.

So, try to let go of your expectations of yourself. You can see that your classmates around you still have their friendships, even if they don't get good grades. They can still find happiness in their lives. Believe that if you don't become better, you are still worth everyone's love. They like you, not your grades.

It's important to distinguish between what's important and what's not, and to have a clear direction.

You're still in high school. No matter how many positions the school gives you, your top priority is to study. Your goal should be the transfer exam three years from now. Studying well in your major is the foundation for your future studies. This is the "brocade" you want to weave, while everything else at this stage is just "gilding the lily."

Step out of your role and look at the big picture.

You set high standards for yourself, and you're already the monitor. If you "go with the flow" too much, I don't think you'll be able to do it. So, my advice to you is: step out of your role as a "student" and get to work.

Since this is just an extra perk, the flower must be able to help this period of time. What is your period of time? You will eventually go out into society and work through your studies.

Your work will require you to learn, handle pressure, take responsibility, communicate, and coordinate. The higher your ability scores in each of these areas, the greater your achievements will be. There are fewer opportunities to make mistakes at work, so high school and college are the perfect time to develop these abilities, as you will have many opportunities to try and make mistakes.

Make a list of your abilities, then put your strengths to good use. When the chance arises, try to use the parts of your abilities that you are weaker at, and take the opportunity to develop them. You might be wondering, what if I can't do it well?

My child, you're just a student. You have teachers and classmates around you, and there are many people who can help you. And you're using your weak points. It's normal if you don't do well, but if you do well, it means you've grown! You just need to believe that you don't need to get high scores in every subject, just be consistent, and you'll be able to stand out.

I wish you all the best for the future and a happy life!

Hello! I can totally see how you might feel a bit powerless right now. The good news is that you're definitely not helpless. You just need a little guidance on how to cope.

You're the monitor, which is a great position to be in! It's a chance to show off all your amazing skills. Learning isn't just about book knowledge. It's also about things like leadership, athletic ability, and social skills. These are things that aren't always easy to show, but you've got this!

It's totally normal to feel a bit out of your comfort zone when you move to a new place. It's all part of the adventure! You'll get the hang of things in no time.

I just wanted to share a few things you might want to think about in your current situation:

As monitor, this may be the case only because there are no other references. So, who knows how things will develop in the future!

But one thing is for sure: your starting point is still quite good. Make the most of this chance to flex your adaptability, planning, and social skills!

2. At the moment, you might come up against a few challenges:

1) Social aspects: Your grades are outstanding, and you're the monitor in this context (of course, I believe that is not the only reason). This can sometimes make you feel like you're on the opposite side of some people, which can make it a little tricky to get along with your classmates.

2) Psychological aspect: Even though your grades are great, there will always be people who do better than you.

I know you have it in you to succeed! But if you become arrogant, you might face some challenges along the way. I have no doubt you'll overcome these difficulties and take every step carefully.

3. It's totally normal to feel a bit confused right now. It's all about adjusting to a new environment and learning how to work with new people. It's a challenge, but you've got this!

1) Find your place. No matter what your role is, you're still a student first and foremost, and your main task is to study.

When you leave school or your current environment, the only things you can take with you are your grades and the friendships you've made.

2) It's so important to have your own goals and ideals. Even though you've created Anne, she still has to be perfect.

But, as we all know, nobody's perfect! So, it's only natural that you might sometimes feel overwhelmed by the gap between who you are and who you want to be. The good news is that you can adjust your vision of Anne to fit your reality, and then you'll be ready to take on the world!

I know it can be tough when you feel like you're stuck in a rut. It can be hard to see a way out of the negative feelings that come with it. But you've got this!

3) It's time to get real with yourself. Your direction should be learning. No matter what the situation is, you should place your personal focus on learning, not personal emotions and anxiety.

It's totally normal to feel anxious when you're trying to achieve balance in your life. Fluctuations are bound to happen, but they'll eventually level out. So try not to let your anxiety get in the way of this transition period.

It's always a good idea to make a plan for yourself, get out there and meet new people, and try to keep an open mind.

It's so important to coordinate all of your forces, especially your teachers, your learning, your classmates, your personal time, your energy, and all of your other content. It's really helpful to arrange them in a way that makes sense to you.

Come on, my friend!
