There's No Such Thing

What is this bad day you speak of?? In my program both of the main professor have told us "There is NO such thing as a bad day in student affairs" Well are there things called bad weeks, months, semesters, years??? No, well I guess its time to put on the S.A face and get into the trenches.
I feel there is so much going on in my life right now, and I am stuck with thinking am I doing the right thing? I know that I really want to go into this field, but I feel like everything else in my life is screaming NO! I seem to be having student meetings internally with myself more than I actually have student meetings in the office. Questions like How are you doing this week? Your classes? Well just because you are feeling hopeless and lost doesn't mean is not true. I am pretty sure I am not the only hopeful S.A who is having this inner convo with themselves several times a week. I know that S.A people are just that people, but when you are trying to help build other people up, sometimes it feels like you are the biggest liar. How am I suppose to be genuinely positive, when i feel like crap on the inside?
I think that the goal is to be honest with myself and know my limitations. I can be upbeat and positive as I know that these students really can make a difference. I need to be positive about my position in life it can always be worse. I could have just kept on driving my car and my engine could have exploded or stopped working while I was driving. I could have no friends who weren't willing to drive me to school or get me from school, but none of these are the case. I am still alive and I still have a job and am working on working in my dream field. I think its time that I take a page from my own book and learn from what is happening to me and stop mopping around. Just because I don't have the full support from my family, but I have survived that before and I will do so now. Sometimes working by and for yourself is the best thing that can happen.
