Nothing Left Unsaid

Yours Truly

Her name is Sabrina, and she is probably one of the laziest and emotionally closed off people you will ever meet. Don't judge her for it; she's a lot smarter than you can imagine and is fiercely loyal to her true friends. A new graduate who majored in law and hoping to ~~work for legal aid~~ find a way of helping people in any way possible. She lives to achieve success, with no plans of execution. She maintains sanity, with her natural talent of repression; fitness, with weightlifting and circuits; and cheerfulness with singing and eating frequently. She is imperfect, and will always be honest about it.

Words speak

Positively Present

Wednesday, 25 November 2009 @ 12:59 am

So, people say that 'Old habits die hard', upon assessing my current situation (01:03AM, unfinished essay and a 9.AM start tomorrow) which is proving to be very true in my case.
Originally motivated to do well all the way through, I seem to have gone back to my old ways. It isn't an issue of lack of motivation or an undiscovered goal, only the issue of only seeing my end goal. Looking up universities, entry requirements and Bar Vocational Courses may sound promising and organised, but in my current sad reality, I am disregarding the present issues of my life and this has already proved to be disastrous as I have learnt from past experiences.

This problem may lie in that fact that I will always become apathetic to situations where I find something a bit more challenging than usual, causing me to become a procrastinator. Even now as I type this blog, I am proving the cause of my problem, once again, doing anything but the set work. Admittedly, work is not actually difficult a large majority of the time, however, my current insistence to be a complete perfectionist does not help as I worry about my work being potentially marked as anything below an 'A'.

Today I found this quote: 'The only limitations you will ever have are the ones you put on yourself'.
Indeed, I cannot disagree with this, for I frequently limit myself. There may be restrictions in society for things I may wish to achieve, but before I event get to these restrictions, I am already limiting myself.

Fear? Pessimism? Weakness?

All true.

Why?

The risk of being wrong or at fault?

Maybe.

Contrary to popular belief, my self-esteem is actually below average. If I don't believe in myself, how will I ever have enough confidence to approach any task? (how ever menial it may be).

'Believe you can and you're half way there'-perhaps I'm on my way to believing. & therefore I should really start this essay. Now.

After all, 'You miss 100% of the shots you don't take'.

Not to mention that tonight is also parents evening. I don't want to risk anything, nor tarnish my 'perfection' at college.
