Mine is finding new friends in my new environment. So nerve wrecking, i've spent like 3 weekends at home. I haven't got any connections here, and friends. My parents told me to just get involve in organizations, But how? where? what organization. I mean it's so much easier said than done!

so what's yours?

Ps: my purpose for this question is to know other people's problem, that people are striving out there too. that it's Not just me. It gives me courage to move on.. maybe what you're facing is a harder problem than mine, or not. I hope it all goes well with all you guys :)

Not being in a huge rush everywhere I go, just to barely get there in time! I used to always, always be late everywhere. I have improved some, as far as I'm not late to work like I was at previous jobs in years past. However, it's always a very close call... like if I got stopped by some extra traffic, or a railroad crossing, something like that... I definitely wouldn't make it in time. I clock in every night between 6:56 and 6:58, and I start work at 7:00pm.
This bad habit is something that I am embarrassed and ashamed by, and on paper it should be so easy to correct.... most people are understandably not very sympathetic either. That's why it's definitely something "easier said than done".

Also, I'm sure it doesn't really make you feel any better, but I have lived in the same area my whole life, and I still only have one close friend. Just one.... that I've known since kindergarten. Pathetic if you ask me... but I just have a really hard time being outgoing and introducing myself to people I don't know. It's waaaay out of my comfort zone.

As a third example, I just started a job in August as a new grad RN, and I have found it next to impossible so far to be able to finish everything on my "must-do list" for all of my patients by the end of my shift.... forget about anything on an imaginary "should-do list"! It makes me feel like I'm only doing a mediocre job as a nurse, at best. My coworkers all leave shortly after 7:30am, and there I am still sitting in a corner charting until 9:00am. I don't know how to change this, but everyone else makes it look so easy and sometimes they actually have free time to just sit around and talk or whatever. It's very discouraging and it makes me absolutely dread going to work....

Breaking up with someone is always easier said than done, especially if you truly love them but know you aren't meant to be together forever.

As for your dilemma: if you don't have a job right now, get one. I made tons of friends when I started working at a local clothing store and never stayed home on the weekend again. Also, if you want to volunteer, try volunteering at a local humane society or charity event/walk.

I totally understand how you feel and My biggest "it's easier said than done" issue is not feeling guilty about some issue in my life.
I have a five yr old who is autistic and while everyone tells me not to blame myself "it is easier said than done"

BUT I am getting better and if I can feel less guilty about something like that you can get out and meet people!!

My "easier said than done" is to get over someone you dated but are still friends with and have to see them with someone else.

When I moved away from my friends and family I found a co-worker to show me around town and from there I made a ton of friends. My co-worker was my tour guide and also became one of my very good friends still. That was almost 3 years ago.

That's the same for me, meeting ppl and moving on. It's a tough one, I moved from my home town a year ago and haven't really met anyone either. So weekends are kinda lonely and blah, it sucks.

Mine is when someone tells you to stop worrying. There is so much on my back to worry about, it is easier said than done.

"Get over him". I was forced to break up with someone I loved because of religion issues. This world is sad.
