Im currently facing a problem with my studies. i spend most of the time here at esato and i've forlorned my studies. i haven't made a significant progress with my carreer. so im wasting my time and my dad's money.
this means that i will be finishing in a time far away of what the carreer's stablished. all i want to know is what i shall do in order to stop my addiction to this forum.
ooohhh laffen what you've done!

@masseur: well, that thought popped up in my mind as well. i would like to be banned from feb-apr(as it is the time when i start the study period). not now as i will have my vacations.
then dont say that this will go for the garbage! you started

I wasn't really being serious
no, what you really need to get yourself is...
some discipline!

@tranced - Yeah . . matey ! All you need is a prudent TIME management . . . if still it does NOT work . . . try ANGER management !

Why not set aside some time for studying, and limit yourself to, say, half an hour on Esato? Surely you can do on here in half an hour all you need to do, even if you normally spend a few hours perusing this wonderful site.

discipline...with my studies. i've become a lazy person regarding the studies. this didnt use to happen when i was at school. dont know why it started now(well, like 1 year ago).

Esato is addictive, I must say . . . but I guess that is ONLY possible if you are ONLINE

@jojo: have you seen my occupation?
another factor is that i do have a job. this takes time off. i woke up at 5am and leave to my workplace at 6.30am. im here till 2 or 3 pm, then i go to the university. i occasionally end up at 6 or 8 pm. im getting to my home at ~9pm.

@trans - Then BLOCK the Esato site (so you are ONLINE most of the time . . .).
Ya mean to say that despite the abrupt DECREASE of your presence here (remember your sig: 70% ONLINE
Ya have to CONTROL yourself mate . . . SOONER or later, even your HEALTH will be at RISK . . . this happened to ME here during my 2 year of stay, specially when it's: PLAYTIME-season

i've tried before to control myself about being online much time, but i havent had success
im studying systems engineering and i would like to receive some motivation from some of the esato's engineers. that would cheer me up a bit

tranced, i suffer the same faint as you matey... i sit in work all day online..... and find myself constantly signed in to esato.... i guess the way to deter yourself from here and on to work, is to take pride in your work..... even if its a database or something..... eassy said than done i know..... but.... thats what i do, sometimes it works, sometimes it dont
Posted by tranced
@leeboy: here at work i just take care/maintenance of the computers here. which means i dont work as a system engineer. it would be good to work as if a were one, but no. i dont have enough knowledge so far.

@lee - Ya mean . . . SAME FATE

Tranced, if you keep saying to yourself you can't do it than you won't. I know it is a worn one, but it is true. Move you but
While you are at esato you can also surf the net and look for your job related subjects..
Posted by tranced
@kenoby: i dont need to search things about my job but my studies/carreer as i spend more time online at esato rather than other thing such studying, doing some research, etc. i know i will do it, but i'll start in feb.
thanks for the cheering.
