Missing Motivation

There are sometimes in life, many times in fact I think one should
laugh at oneself. For example, I firmly belive that most people who
are unable to achieve their goals or fufill others expectations merely
suffer from a lack of self efficacy. However, I feel guilty for
abandoning my blogging efforts, which I have done in fine form.

Summer is halfway over and proven me a hypocrite in another way.
Currently, I'm in Conneticut- supporting my mother and saying goodbye
to my GG. When I return, I must find a job. Thanks to my family, the
important bills are getting paid, but I'm putting myself into debt
buying books. Of course, it didn't help that I paid for my class ring
with my credit card and can't pay it back until finaid kicks in
september. According to my own theory, all I lack is the belief that I
can find and perform in a position. So, by changing my paradigm, the
job hunt should be less intimdating, right? So easy that if I had done
this mental reworking earlier I would have already been working.

The long road trip has provided me with plenty of time to read. I'm
trying to make my first foray into museum studies by wading through a
textbook with that title. At home I have Kylie Message's book, 'New
Museums'. I might spend my first days home reading it instead of
looking for that part-time position.
