Hi Steve Pavlina, my name is Mindy. I just want to thank you for posting these very useful articles; tips for college students, self-discipline, and many others. They helped me alot.

I moved out when I was 19. Home was not my home. I dropped out of college after the first year. I worked 2 part time jobs, paid rent, food and transportation for myself for the first time. It felt great.
Five years later, I find myself lost again. I'm working a FT (meaningless) office job and doing online courses at the same time trying to finish my Bachelor of Commerce. I made that decision 2 years ago when I couldn't find a better job that paid more than minimum wage with only my HS certificate. I knew I needed a better education if I wanted to live my life better. But somehow I can't find the motivation to study, nor do exercise, nor do some cooking. I'm attempting to read all your articles on this website and see if I can find an answer for myself.

Thank you Steve. Mindy.
