Minh used to finish schoolwork late because he checked messages whenever his phone lit up. During a wellbeing workshop, he drew a weekly plan with three priorities: enough sleep, essential homework and daily movement. He turned off unnecessary notifications while studying and left ten minutes between tasks. His plan included time with friends, not just more work. When an assignment felt too difficult, he asked the school counsellor how to break it into smaller steps. After two weeks, Minh felt less rushed. He knew a plan could change when unexpected things happened. The purpose was not to fill every minute but to protect the activities that kept him healthy.
