Struggling in Life

It's Thursday, one day before the weekend begins. For me, Thursday's is a hard day for me. One, I have to get up at 6 am to get ready for school, two I have to sit in rush hour traffic to get to school, and three it's the end of the week and all I want to do is have fun & relax but I know I have school work to do. I really struggle to stay focused on what needs to get done. But lately I realized, this isn't' just happening on Thursday's, I've been struggling to stay focus on school and everything since I started my new classes back in September. Every week, I try to get re-focused and get things done but I can't seem to. I get my homework done but at the last minute right before class. I don't get any of my reading done. I say I am gonna do laundry, but I keep putting it off until I have a tons of it to do and nothing to wear, same with the dishes, I don't do them until I don't have any left to use. ( You are probably thinking they sit in my sink but they sit in the dishwasher) I tell myself, I need to go to the gym but I never do. So what do I do when I just can't focus and I feel like I am struggling so much to keep pushing onwards? If anyone has some advice to give me, I would love to hear it!

I looked up some inspiring quotes for myself, and also for those that may also be struggling in life....

* What a great feeling to look back on what you've already climbed.


*Challenges are what make life interesting; overcoming them is what makes life meaningful. -Joshua J. Marine


*Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage. The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict.

*Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.- John Heywood


*Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure.. than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat. -Theodore Roosevelt

  1. Those struggles are a mid college thing, trust me. It happened to me too. My advice: Let it go, and enjoy college. You will miss it when its over. Be lazy, drink coffee, put off laundry and dishes, I probably only read 2 text books in college ever. I know everyone says that you will miss the college years, but TRUST ME, i have only been out a year, and miss being able to do those things so much. Don't question yourself so much, just relax.
