As an MBA student at the University of Chicago Booth, FOMO (fear of missing out) is a common feeling. The pressure to attend every event or join every club can feel overwhelming. However, to manage FOMO, it’s important to embrace the idea of doing less and focusing on what truly matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are a few tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Set Priorities<\/strong>: Know what\u2019s important to you, and be confident in your decisions. For example, assembling a bed might be more important than going out to network if it improves your well-being.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Find Your Way to Connect<\/strong>: Networking is key, but it doesn’t have to be traditional. Introverts may prefer one-on-one conversations, while extroverts might enjoy larger events. Find what works best for you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Tune Out the Noise<\/strong>: Social media often amplifies FOMO. Limiting your time on these platforms or turning off notifications can help reduce the pressure of comparison.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Ultimately, the key to overcoming FOMO is being comfortable with missing out on certain things. Focus on what\u2019s right for you and your goals.
