Getting motivated

[jeepgirl, LPN, NP]

Hello!

I have never, ever had this problem before. This semester, I am having the worst time getting motivated! I have been in school for the past 4 years almost straight. I was super excited to get into my PNP program, but now that it is here, I am just not wanting to get started. Is this normal??!?!?! Anyone else out there feel this way?????

Thanks!

It's normal. I get like this from time to time. I usually break the monotone routine and try different approaches. I also read lots of inspirational stories or cd's and usually get back on track.

I get bored easily as I cannot stand still, so I am constantly seeking to learn something or just take up a new activity. I have found this helps me lots. Good luck to you. :)

Boy do I know how you feel. I have been in school continuously for three years now (will be done May 06) and can't wait. I am having a really hard time getting my act together this semester. We will get through it though!
