Instead of seeing the assignment as 'something I need to do so that I can pass the class so that I can graduate so that I can get a job', etc, look at it as something you can do that will make someone you care about proud, or as something that will enable you to do things that will benefit people who are important to you.

* Reflect on the observation that 'we don't grow when we're in our comfort zones'.

* See yourself as setting an example for others who are struggling with the same anxiety issues. Strive to make it a positive example.

* Memento mori.
