I question myself

At this point my lack of motivation makes me question myself. I ask myself how bad I want this. Because right now my actions have not shown that I am willing to make the sacrifices necessary to obtain the CFA Charter. Maybe in the last week I have become a bit more dedicated. And maybe I have been putting in a lot of time in the office. But flat out, successful people make time to achieve their goals, and they are cognizant of the limits of their bodies and the energy they have. It kind of sucks to say this but I have been having too much fun lately. Going out too much, hanging out too much, and wasting too much time. Too much time spent on Facebook and too many late nights in bars. I can't go completely into a shell to get the job done, but I need to be more selective about my outings. Bars do not align at all with my career or personal goals. Maybe I should plan my acceptable distractions:

LOG meetings
LOG select outings
Running/Fitness
Movies/Dinners

I know I want this. And I do not want to not pass this test. I know I will be a Charterholder someday, but I'd rather it sooner than later. Class starts this week. The time is now. Amen.
