Trying to be successful is exhausting

That's not a bad schedule if you have the weekends free, you're exercising daily, all you need is ~1 hour of random time for TV/gaming and you're set.

My weekends are full-rot, 2 x 12 hour study days. The only saving grace is that university only runs ~8 months off the year. My weekdays are similar, except I allow an hour to watch TV/game a day, keeps my sanity.

such a hard life for OP, no worries about food or having shoes, place to stay just a regular schedule for the 8-5 working man.

I imagine OP would die within a week living in a third world country.

Let me fuk y'all up with this one:

- I work 3 days a week
- I make 55-65/hr (depending on contract, stipends)
- I work 3 month contracts
- After each contract, I take a month off before signing a new one
- I feel like I am hardly ever at work

Man I was just saying I'm kinda tired... I didn't say I hated my life ... clearly I'm pretty fortunate which doesn't change the fact that I'm tired lol ??

What's the gameplan going forward OP? Doesn't passing the CFA L1 already prove your interest in the field since you say you come from a non-traditional background. Is it worth doing the next 2 levels?

You wanted this and now you've got it. Change your perception, eyes on the prize. You can do it

Ok, this will sound cliche as phuck, but it's so true. Just hustle until you can afford to/have the opportunity to work for yourself. It really is the GOAT lifestyle. I work from home and I phucking love it. Elated most of the time. Still gotta work hard, but the freedom. The freedom is everything.

OP what are you doing on your weekends? Hopefully you give yourself one day to relax and recharge.

[PeteJonesHTX]

Stop drinking. Life will become 20x easier.

This. A night of heavy drinking derails you for a couple days at least. For me, my diet suffers the day I drink, and of course the next day. That's two fkn days off the diet, and with my average (at best) genetics, that's a major setback.

My hangovers often linger a bit longer too. Brb not feeling 100% until 48 hrs after partying like a rockstar. Bc of this, I try not to get shytfaced on saturdays, especially if monday is an important day at work.

we're all gonna make it
