    I don't know if I'm alone, but as I wind down and head into the final two weeks before completing my degree, I am finding it difficult to stay motivated. I find myself feeling anxious about finishing so I can throw myself into my next educational venture which has be consuming most of my thoughts.

    I feel like I'm putting the carriage before the horse, and I know I should just put my head down and push through, but I'm finding it difficult to stay motivated and I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue?

    Yes, but that is what I used to drive me to complete what I am on - to move forward. I am always two steps ahead in my mind. I am working on "Program 1", know what "Program 2" will already be, and thinking about "Program 3".

    Hells to the yes I have experienced that issue. When I finished my last class for my MBA at Aspen, I kept putting off doing the capstone. I mean, FOR MONTHS!!!!!!!!! Finally, with the sage advice of men wiser than me, I kind off got pushed into doing the capstone. And you know what, I am sure glad their constant encouragement/butt kicking forced me to finish the MBA. The sages pushed me into it. :smile: Best thing that could have happened to me.

    Abner :) Keep it up man!

    I waited to start my thesis until the last two weeks of my capstone course. There's nothing like procrastination to motivate oneself!

    That's pretty impressive. How many words / pages was it in the end?
