Has anyone ever felt like their life is going nowhere.?

I'm 25, married, high school diploma, legal assistant certificate, and an infant child, what are the chances that I am going to be successful?? Have you ever felt like that??

Answer:
I think most every woman on the planet has felt that way before (if they are honest with themselves!) You are still very young - be glad you had your child(ren) while you are young. Take the time to enjoy them! Once they are in school you could always go to college or technical school and further your education. I wish you all the best - God bless!
Better chance than I do, as I'm twice your age.
you'r going to fail, no doubt about that
yeah.
well, what does your husband do? a housewife is a very important job.especially if you're doing that on top of another job outside of the house.
Yes. At times like that you need to find something in your life to improve on. It can be personal, it can be emotional, physical, or even just redecorating a room.

Don't stagnate..take a correspondence course.go back to school..sell on Ebay. Anything.
Yes i have felt like that all the time, just live for today.
Set your goal and tell yourself 'I can do that!'.
I think , you have good chances . just don`t waste your time in thinking about chances .. just get it
27, not married living with 2 other girls, glorified secretary with a diploma in advertising. I feel your pain. i feel your pain.

Keep your chin up we all can't be successful. But hey watch the show (I believe its called) Dirty Jobs and you'll feel much better.
Yes sometimes and I have an Associates degree from my local community college, but no matter where I go, the jobs I see require a 4 year degree which I don't have. So, I think to myself that I am a successful contract person.
Yep, we've all been there, thinking I am really accomplishing what I want from life.

U have had success up until now.
Look at UR child if U need proof.
Look at UR life & the high points, UR just having a wobble.
It'll pass.

Say
" I'm a success ",
repeat when necessary.
i have felt like this alot of times.. but the best thing to do is think positive. i never thought that i would be where i am today.. i think that your chances are very good.. just keep your head up and things will go your way.. don't worry.. everyone has a purpose in life.. everyone
Sure.
You have to take life's pleasures wherever they are.
Playing with your child or going for a walk, a nice Cab, or whatever.
Success is great, but how many rich miserable people do you know?
Work is for one thing - to finance the rest of your life, not to be who you are or to be your life.
Hope this helps.
Most likely it's your perception of success that needs some work.
Hello, Yes we all have. Now We have a successful home base business. We do all our work on the computer and phone. We started out part time and now we both do it full time. No inventory, no collecting and no overhead. Email rbowen12@windstream.net Good luck and don't give up.
Sweetie,

Please allow me to say!

You already are more successful than you can imagine!

You are a mother!

You have given birth!

How Wonderful is that??

Beyond anything thing you can now imagine you have much
work ahead of you! Your child is a precious gift! To you! To
the father! and to the World! Embrace this! Embrace all that
you now have to do!

You are a star compared to me.

I am worthless!

Have fun but be safe!
Depends on what your definition of "successful" is. And, yes.I've been there.
Seek success and restructure your time. You need to find and adopt a goal. Legal Assistant Certification is a great step toward becoming a lawyer. A few night classes at a local college, maybe an occassional online course or two and you could be on your way toward being a lawyer.
Are you in a relationship? You're goal could be to have your significant other take over child rearing while you enter the high power corporate legal world in 5 years. Make the bum sit at home and raise the kids while you bring home the bacon.
It takes committment to do it. YOU need to be stong enough to make the decision and stand by it. Do NOT "ask" permission to bring success to yourself and your family. Seize it and make it yours and anyone not willing to come along for the ride better get used to a new, driven, determined you.
my dear you are already successful be grateful for what you have accomplished and not what you have yet to accomplish

my dear i am 32 years old yes in a relationship and a very good one at that but i tell ya i do relate to how you feel but i have learned differently

all i ever wnated out of life was to one day be a good husband and a good daddy to this day i have no biologically children of my own but what i do have is 4 wonderful, beautiful children on paper , my sister and her husband have 3 adopted children and i am on paper as uncle ray/god father

when they showed up @ my sisters house, jessica was 2 months jessinfer was 2 years and andre was newborn, kayla who is with my other sister was also newborn, they all arrived as foster children!!

and they are all my children if anyone asks, ppl see the picture in my wallet and say are those your children? why yes they are!

i take great pride in these children
as i siad i am 32 and ya know i am just now back in school i am a computer technician i have battled drugs, epilepsey, weight issues, cigarettes and much more

i feel today as if i have succeeded and i dont have a wife or a child but i do make good money and will be mcse ,A+ & netowrk++ certified when i finish with everything as of now i make very good money when i work but in order for me to work as much as i'd like ( i work for myself) i need to be certified but one day i will also have the wife and the children of my own but for now i have everything god sees fit for me to have, point being look@ your life and your accomplishments seems to me you have many!!!
best of luck to you my friend GOD (As You Understand Him/Her/IT) Bless you in everything you do throughout your life
I feel like that sometimes . Read these 2 quotes , work hard ; things will improve - hope is free , hopelesness cud be costly .So cheer up and work hard

"Prosperity is not without many fears and distastes, and Adversity is not without comforts and hopes. "
"Prosperity is a great teacher; adversity a greater. "
You've listed your successes as if they are all in the past. You have much to be greatful for, especially having achieved all of this at age 25. It sounds like you have lost touch with your dreams, which happens often when we get caught in a 9-5 routine and even moreso as a young mother who spends much of her time nurturing her child's needs at the expense of her own. Success is a feeling which is different for everyone. What you have to do is to get back in touch with your dreams and then set goals (with time limits) to achieve these dreams. You'll find that you are excited about life again, and each time you achieve a small goal, reward yourself. Stay focused on the dream and you will feel accomplished and successful. My business is related to personal growth and development and working on limiting beliefs, like the one you are experiencing right now. You may contact me directly, I would love to share my business with you as an option.
