Diane Keaton in Baby Boom. Photo: Mary Evans/ Everett Collection Dear Polly, I am a 27-year-old woman happily married for the last two years, living in a great home. I've been actively building the life I've always dreamed of, but I have a steady, corporate job at a bank, which I feel absolutely nothing for. What's worse, my manager retired and I hate my new boss, so my easy, secure job is now the seventh circle of hell. Every day, I dread walking into my building and feel like a total failure who is wasting away her life with every passing heartbeat. Now I only want to start a family. But I feel that if I do, I will never go back to work, nor will I figure out what I want to do with myself career-wise. I'm looking for a new job at the same company, but my heart isn't in it because I'm not interested in the industry and I'd still be an anonymous and invisible employee of an enormous corporation. But I'm afraid of leaving because this job has great benefits, especially when it comes to maternity leave. I would leave for a dream job, but I have no idea what that is. My real dream is to be the parent who works from home or for herself. As far as careers go, I can see myself as an interior designer, or in the hospitality industry, or maybe as some kind of broadcast journalist. I am creative and I love to write. I often consider going back to school for broadcast journalism (a four-year program but I will surely be pregnant by/before graduation. And then what, the degree goes on hold while I build my family? I read a lot about women and careers and feel that, by now, I should have a job I can lean in to, so that when I bow out and become a parent, I have a good career foundation established. I also feel that if I want to have any semblance of a career while juggling family, I should probably be pregnant yesterday so that I'll only be in my 40s when my kids are 18. I have.

I CAN DO IT ALL BY MYSELF, THANK YOU VERY MUCH! ( A Lesson in the woes of Self- Sufficiency) There’s an old song that goes something like this: “ Oh, what peace we often forfeit; oh, what needless pain we bear all because we we do not carry everything to God in prayer.” You may be saying, “ I pray and talk to God about everything! Well, I think I do I talk a lot to God then why do I still feel like I am weighed down, like I’m carrying the weight of the world upon my shoulders?” When we leave our prayer times feeling like we are still weighed down it maybe because we choose to keep the weight we are bearing. For some reason we have not been able to give it over. We may be afraid to leave it there; or maybe we leave it there and take it back when things seem to be going awry. Another thing, we know the Word says to cast all our cares upon the Lord, but how do we stop the horror flics playing in our heads? These films show us all the negative possibilities; and usually in 3 D. They get us thinking about all the woulda, coulda, shouldas in our lives. And if we’re not careful, they can get us to blame, arrest, try, and sentence anyone who may seem suspect-especially ourselves. At the end of the day, we are worn out from carrying painful loads of hurt, doubt and fear. If that isn’t enough, if we allow our pride to enter in, telling ourselves: “you can do it, you don’t need any help! You’re a tough ol’ gal or guy, you’ll make it just fine.” Yes, with that attitude we will be “fine”: fouled up; irrational; neurotic; and emotional! What’s the answer? How do we live out the scripture: “ I can do ALL things through Christ”; and quit trying to do everything in our own strength? I would like to say the answer is easy. Some things are easy to hand over. Others, are not! We are to apply the Word of God to each situation. That’s why it is so important that we are in.

What to do when studying feels impossible ’cause there’s Tumblr and naps. I am possibly the most unmotivated person ever. I need to study for exams, but I find it almost impossible. My daily routine pretty much consists of school and then coming home and going on Tumblr until dinner and then sleeping. I desperately want to be a more motivated person, but it’s just so hard. Do you know how can I become more motivated? — Emma, 15, Australia First up, I feel you on exams, because it was always the type of assessment that stressed me out THE MOST. The fact that I would be judged on my performance during ONE VERY SPECIFIC HOUR (or whatever amount of time) made all my muscles bunch up tight and my brain go into some kind of hellspin. OK, now that we have commiserated over the brutal pressure-pit of examinations, let’s talk about motivation, which actually applies to EVERYTHING in life—not just exams. For me, there are three main questions to answer when I’m trying to get things done. They help me isolate the reasons I might be getting stuck: 1. Why do I want to do this Important Thing? The answer to this question might be straightforward: For example, if you think about why you’re motivated to go on Tumblr all the time, the answer might be that it’s entertaining or it connects you to a community. If you’re Frodo from Lord of the Rings, you might want to destroy the One Ring so that its evil power will never enslave another unwitting victim. But for something like studying for an exam, the answer might be a bit more abstract. Do you want to study because you love studying itself? If the answer is yes, think about why you’re not studying. It might be obvious, or it might be something you don’t expect. ( For example, when I was in fifth grade, I was sent to the school counselor because I wasn’t handing in homework, even though I was contributing happily during class. The.
