I feel frustrated because I really cannot set any goals that are motivating.

I'm good at getting done whatever needs getting done, no problems with mundane things like work, school, or chores, but I just never have had anything joyful or inspiring pulling me forward. It's been all push and duty. Life has not been satisfying. I'm about to graduate with my BSC and it all seems so pointless, I'm actually embarrassed. I won't both to go to the ceremony, for sure.

I need a reason to live. Duty isn't cutting it.

Had a look at the book posted in the sticky post of this forum. I can't seem to translate my values into a chunk of anything worthwhile. The world is a mad and terrible place, and I don't see a thing I can do to change that. One of my first posts on PC, in the careers forum, covered related issues.

Any thoughts?
