Melanie's Get Organized Journal: Week 4

Hello everyone.

As most of you know, I have really been struggling with the challenge recently. I attended the chat on Tuesday, and I got a chance to ask my question, but I'm still not able to motivate myself enough to organize myself. It's a vicious cycle...you see...I am so disorganized that I can't organize myself to get organized. I know that sounds crazy, but it's true. And on top of that, I continue to procrastinate. I am one of those "have to be in the mood to do it" people. And for some reason, I am NEVER able to put myself in the mood to do the things I need to do. And that's not just housekeeping, that includes studying, organizing, EVERYTHING.

I keep saying that I'm going to consult a therapist, but I procrastinate with that too. I also give up very easily. When I hit a snag with anything, I quit. At this point, I am at the end of my rope. But I am very happy to have people that I can confide in, and I want to thank all of you ladies for listening to me. THANKS!!
