Ever since the beginning of the semester, I've had little to zero
motivation to do the work necessary for my classes. This has created
problems for me. Namely the fact that I totally spaced on a couple of
assignments for my School Library class and thus setting off a chain of
me struggling to keep up and feeling lost.
I have no idea why the
motivation hasn't been there. This really is the first time something
like this has happened to me. I'm usually more on top of my classwork
and such but not this semester.
It could be that I'm just burned
out. I've been taking classes practically non-stop since graduating high
school. The only breaks I got were when I couldn't take classes because
my degree program didn't offer them.
I took classes this past
summer. A couple of classes. One was a very fast paced class in
Maymester and the other was throughout the whole Summer session. My
classes finished about a week before Fall semester began.
Maybe
I'm just burnt out because I didn't get much of a break or something. I
don't really know. Whatever the reason, it's taken until now for me to
actually get motivated to do my classwork.I'm still not 100% motivated
but I'm at least wanting to do my homework more and at least try to stay
more on top of it.
Over the past week, I've actually had a
stronger desire to actually do my work. There's still a strong desire to
avoid doing the work (and specifically for my School Library class) but
at least I'm doing it now.
Perhaps my therapy sessions have
helped somewhat. The return of motivation seems to tie in with the
beginning of my sessions. While we have mentioned finding strategies for
helping me get more motivated we haven't actually discussed it much.
Perhaps because my other problems are being dealt with I can put more
focus into actually doing my work?
