You know what, I wish I never took up the CFA exam! Waking up at 3 am, all stressed out and trying to study as I can't sleep becuase of the stress, only to realise at 5:30am that I haven't learnt anything at all as I'm both stressed out and sleepy. Can't sleep since I would have to leave for work in 1 & 1/2 hours.
At work, is it my imagination or does work always pick up at around April/May.... Sleepy. stressed, not handling my job well, even more stress. After work, get home, can't study as I'm tired and stressed. Which increases my stress since I'm not studying enough. In turn causes insomnia. See that cycle? Is anyone experiencing similar problems? Why are we doing this to ourselves? In the number of interviews I had (statistically insignificant compared to the number of applications made), I don't think the CFA made much of an impression. Work experience matters more, so much more that there is no comparison. Anyway, just ranting..... stressed |

yep me totally!!!!
I arrive at work at around 7am and do not leave till around 6.30/7 pm. It is VERY difficult for me to study at work, or at home during the week, so have to try & focus on the weekends. The longer you continue in this cycle the more stressed you become and as this increases you move further away from your schedule. Its time to BREAK this downward decline & build in some simple disciplines. such as 1 hour per day & then 6 hours over the weekend - for say 2 weeks and then analyse the situation. What ya think?? |
