When you had such an amazing day off that you start dreading the night because it means you'll have to be back at work tomorrow morning. I hate this feeling and it usually means I'm getting to my limit, which sucks because if I'm being honest, when I get to work I'm happy at least during 90% of my time - I think this is a pretty good average, no?

*hugs* the whole 'is this my true calling?' thing is so hard to deal with... I studied visual art at university, got three degrees in it and had exhibitions and curatorial roles... but when I got sick (and now, well again) I couldn't find any jobs in the field any more. This has led me to just apply for any old jobs... it has made me so unmotivated/unambitious! Who knows, though - maybe that drive will come back once I'm back in the workforce!

I found that motivation is more fleeting that I wished. It's easily gone and I have to work hard to keep it on! I get bored when things start being the same everyday and when things get in a comfort zone... don't know why. Life would be easier if I could accept routine.
But I do believe that ambition will get back to you once you get your feet wet again! You'll feel the taste of if and there you go!

I completely get this feeling, too. At least you are learning a new path, slowly but surely. I am still in the stage of wanting to do something else, something more rewarding, but stuck not knowing where to go next or how to figure out where/what that is. Right now I'm in limbo. I have interests in my head, but haven't the guts to start a journey. I would love to really learn astrology for readings for others or even tarot, but am stuck just still trying to figure out my own chart and the simplest card meanings.
I have a weird trait where if I know I won't be really good at something, I won't make a fool out of myself trying... but I will still secretly wish and be interested in my head. LOL
Keep pursuing what you love. I can live vicariously through people's successful improvements through the internet. :)

You just described me! I'm the same way! I expect myself to be amazing at everything on the first time I'm doing it and if I don't meet my expectations, I just get frustrated, embarrassed and might just give up! That's why I'm not doing readings for people yet, cause this is important to me. I don't want people thinking I suck at it, so I'm investing in it and will only allow myself to do readings when I feel I'm ready... Until then, only readings for myself!
