Hi,
well i thought i might start a blog, but how long it will last is another matter. I know i've not been around much on the site, although i tend to lurk when I do pop on....there's always far too many forum posts to catch up on!
Came back off holiday on monday and things seem to have gone downhill since then. it was a good holiday, but busy so have come back tired. To then deal with an issue yoda had in his life, and today found out that I failed one of my uni modules, so i have to re-sit, and i'm really down in the dumps about that....right now i just want to curl up in bed and cry til it all goes away. I struggled to get motivated to do my uni work as it was due to family situations, and then moving away from uni/southampton, but now to have to find a way to do it all again, i dont have the motivation or energy to do it. I'd rather just give up.
I've applied for a part time job locally, but I'm guessing given the way this week has gone that i'm not gonna get it. so i'll carry on going into debt cos i'm not getting any money from anywhere, and although someone suggested signing on, i'm not sure i'll be allowed to as a student.
can't even be bothered with wedding planning right now, as that was stressing me, and requires brain power and seems like another thing that just bound to go wrong.

Sorry i'm finished now, sorry its so depressing :(

    Sorry to hear about your woes hun but you must not quit. I had the same sort of attitude when i was your age and look at me now. I have always regretted it.

    I am 46 single looking after and caring for my father. Although i have only had 2 jobs since leaving school in 1979 i was 17 and my first job was a Steel Machine Operator for 8 years and a Postman for 12 years i only had average qualifications i always regretted not going further with my life and wanting to learn new things to improve my quality of life for when i got older.


    Its too late when you get to my age with nothing to look forward too and thinking what if ?? Its at times when you are hardest hit that you must not QUIT. There is this saying WINNERS NEVER QUIT AND QUITTERS NEVER WIN

    It what you decide to do now in your life that will affect you for the rest of your life. You're an intelligent person and you can become successful in any thing you choose to do but you have to believe in YOU!

    What you need to do is set out a game plan (Organized Planning) and think POSITIVLEY and take out the I CANT in your head and replace it with i can. Regarding your family situations there is another saying OUT OF EVERY ADVERSITY THERE LIES A SEED OF EQUAL OR GREATER BENEFIT and i truly believe in that quote.

    To become successful in the game of life hun you have to fail first. All the millionaires in the world didnt just get rich over night. A lot of them put all their eggs in one basket and lost everything and it didn't stop them trying again. A lot went bankrupt first before they became wealthy. They FAILED their way to SUCCESS and learnt from their mistakes.

    Just look at failing that module as a stepping stone to your own success and next time you'll be better equipped to deal with because you have become wiser and you will have learnt from that little set back. Makes sense doesnt it Always remember WINNERS NEVER QUIT AND QUITTERS NEVER WIN!

    I know youre a winner. With success comes confidence and so on and so on. There is a brilliant book and i reckon if you got it and read it cover to cover it would help you in your everyday life and help you get what it is you want out of life. I'd recommend it to anyone. The book is called THE MAGIC OF THINKING BIG by David J Schwartz.

    Its also a good idea to set GOALS. Why goals? Because they give you some thing to aim for goals should be made do that you have to work that little bit harder to reach them. Prioritize what it is you need to sort out first and get done? Then set short medium and long term goals. There is another book called SEE YOU AT THE TOP by Zig Zigglar. You have everything in their you need to achieve anything in life. Are the books cheap no for the 2 about £26 possibly the price of a night out on the town with your uni mates.

    What price do you put on where you want to be in life in the future. Also remember that at uni you are all part of a TEAM and your lecturers are there to teach you and help you to become the person you want to be. There is no 'I' in TEAM. Team stands for this (T) TOGETHER (E) EVERYBODY (A) ACHIEVES (M) MORE

    If you become a TEAM player you will become successful in anything you do. Always remember that everytime you have a negative though always replace it with a POSITIVEthought. Positive self talk is awesome too and it works after a while. A book WHAT TO SAY WHEN YOU TALK TO YOURSELF by Shad Helmstetter teaches you about POSITIVE SELF TALK Its all about programming your sub-conscious to be positive.

    When you go to bed at night and get comfortable close your eyes and VISUALISE IN PICTURES when you want to be in life and say 5 years down the road where it is you want to be and in 10 years etc Just take all the negative out of you head and replace it with POSITIVE

    I was taught from my very first boss who was a self made millionaire he taught me and to this day i really believe THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS CANT DO and a simple answer to any problem is SOLVE AND GO

    If you cant get that part time job buy a bucket and sponge and go clean some cars lol few quid a time adds up. Or go an mow some one lawn there are a million and one ways to earn bits of money. Always remember that you as a human being are an amazing person and one day youll realize that. So chin up sit down prioritize and do some ORGANIZED PLANNING set some goals and draw a line and forget about the past and move forward INCH BY INCH ITS A SINCH

    You take good care of yourself and i look forward to seeing your blog in the future especially when you have become successful Very Best Wishes Mario (Donald) (:o)

    Don't Quit



    When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
    When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
    When the funds are low and the debts are high,
    And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
    When care is pressing you down a bit,
    Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

    Life is queer with its twists and turns,
    As everyone of us sometimes learns,
    And many a failure turns about
    When he might have won had he stuck it out;
    Don't give up, though the pace seems slow -
    You might succeed with another blow.

    Often the goal is nearer than
    It seems to a faint and faltering man,
    Often the struggler has given up
    When he might have captured the victor's cup.
    And he learned too late, when the night slipped down,
    How close he was to the golden crown.

    Success is failure turned inside out -
    The silver tint of the clouds of doubt -
    And you never can tell how close you are,
    It may be near when it seems afar;
    So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -
    It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit.
