I'm already burnt out

[pluggingalong]

Just chiming in to say my wife and I split up in December (last month) and I started at WGU last month too and I just do not want to be doing it at all right now. I have only gotten one class done and I thought I would have gotten maybe 6 done the first month.

It just is what it is though and I'm going to stick with it.

I've quit college many times before, but this time I'm determined not to quit. So, I basically just waited out my urge to quit. There wasn't even anything in particular that I wanted to do. Now, I am back on track.  One thing that helped was thinking about how getting a degree was going to unlock other potential things in life, and how that was better for me in many ways. WGU is also flexible enough that most people will be able to figure out a way to make it work for them, not many schools are like that.  One thing I am trying to do, is make sure I do other things than just WGU work.  I didn't need that the first 6 months, but I have more of a need to socialize now that I am aware it is going to take me 2 years to finish. I don't have any magic advice for you (or me), but I would encourage you to attack the problem of not wanting to do the schoolwork from as many angles as you can. While I wasn't doing schoolwork, I was thinking about why I might have such an aversion to it.  So I was either doing the work, or thinking about why I wasn't. Eventually, I just started doing the work again.
