This month we are talking about setting goals for the new year. 

The start of each year tends to be filled with New Years Resolutions that are always set with the best intentions but are notoriously difficult to keep. Research has consistently shown us that people who set goals are likely to be more successful.

Meditation is a really great way to help improve the way we focus. Keep on reading to understand the benefits of meditation, different ways you can practise meditation, as well as some helpful tips and videos! 

Welcome to your MCI Wellbeing Blog for August!

This month we wanted our wellbeing article to help you with common problems that we all may deal with at some point with regards to our studies, applying for jobs or life in general. These are having positive self-esteem and confidence. There is a difference between the two, however they do also overlap, and both can affect how we approach tasks and situations, which in turn can have an impact on our success.

Here at MCI, we are all about students achieving success, and we are so delighted when we see you succeed after all the effort and hard work we know you put into your courses.

So, what exactly is self-esteem and what is confidence you may ask.
