having trouble getting motivated

For one reason or another, I'm having trouble getting motivated to study for my next exam. I know the urgency with this and really want to learn this stuff, but when I start out taking the measure-up tests, there is so much I feel I don't know and then feel overwhelmed like I don't know (and never will know) the material.
I just need to quit whining and get my A$$ in gear. Maybe I'll start with the tech-notes.

    Dude, that's my experience with every exam I work on. I really have to make an effort to give myself positive self-talk, especially on the first run through a practice exam. It's so easy to get overwhelmed at the onset. Just remember that 270 was probably the same way, but you stuck with it, and now you know the material. Keep thinking about how the stuff you're struggling with now is going to seem like the simplest thing you've ever seen a couple of weeks from now. Just keep plugging away, slowly but surely, and you'll have it down before you know it.

    One of the best ways to motivate yourself is to go ahead and schedule the exam...
