Working Full Time, Going To School Full Time

What a semester the Fall 2008 semester has been.  Here I completed week 8 PSYC 365, Human Learning and I am exhausted both mentally and physically.  

That is one plus of classes at Liberty University, the 8 week classes which allows me to take three 3 classes.  One of the classes actually overlaps because of the way the subterms are scheduled. By the end of the semester, I earn 9 hours of college credit.  If I can continue going to school full time, I will finish in spring 2012, enabling me to enroll immediately into a doctoral program.

The only thing I sometimes wonder is if I can continue on the pace I have begun.  Sometimes, going to school full time as well as working full time is challenging.  Most of the time  I am doing my class work while I am at work but sometimes it is harder to do than others.  However, I do give my clients my full attention whenever they come into my office.  Sometimes my employees just want to stop by and talk, especially if they are having a hard day. 

That is one of the reasons why I chose Psychology.  So far, I have only taken one Psychology class.  I am trying to get the basics done first. The next two years, I want to devote to expanding on my research in post traumatic stress disorder in children.

My next goal is to create a psychology practice under my corporation, bring in a licensed psychologist, and create my own internship within my company while working under the supervision of that licensed psychologist.  In a competitive environment with an economy that has tanked in 2008, creating your own opportunities will ensure my own job security.
