I am right there with you. I'm finishng my master's next semester and every month is a struggle to get the bills paid, log enough hours at my part-time job (I am a graduate instructor as well), and then find time to simply relax.

What has helped me? The struggle itself. Knowing that one day inthe future when I am exactly where I want to be that this time, right here, right now - was worth it.

If you keep working hard there will come a day when you will be sitting back on a beach somewhere, with a cold drink in one hand and hopefully someone lovely in the other and it will dawn upon you that you deserve every bit of that. You deserve it because of times like now when you sought advice, vented frustration, and put one foot in front of the other and kept going.

Don't quit. Attack your challenges with fury and passion, everyday.
