Do you ever feel like you want to give the finger to sickeningly repetitive self-help experts?
Do you find yourself screaming “I haven’t had enough coffee for this shit!” several times a day?
This week will feature posts about the site. The purpose, what we’re all doing here, who I am and what you can expect on this blog in the future.
Not Enough Coffee is a blog about the things that motivate and inspire; things that provide distraction, frustration or a needed escape. This is an under-caffeinated search for balance and sanity.
A lot of “self-help experts” tend to give their advice in such a sugary, upbeat, unrealistic way that it becomes difficult not to resent what is sometimes a good message. These guys have ingested too much of their special brand of Kool-aid. Its hard to connect with what they’re saying when they sound like sanctimonious and judgmental lobotomy patients. (more…)

Welcome to Not Enough Coffee!
This is a search for balance and sanity.
“We know what we are, but know not what we may be.”
~William Shakespeare
Hello, I’m Amanda.
I’m 29, I sleep too much, and drink too much coffee.
I have a mountain of student loan debt from a wasted education that is unfinished and unusable, I watch too many movies, I have an unhealthy love of Star Wars, I sometimes drink too much vodka, and I work in a soul sucking and spine crushingly boring job that I hate, in an industry based on greed and ignorance.
Everyday I see and interact with people who are selfish and completely unaware of themselves or others around them. They are rude and lazy and they make me lose all faith in humanity. They are the consumer frenzy.
I want to be a better person. I want to find hope, faith and inspiration in myself and the world around me. I want to level up.
I’m just a girl, trying to be better. Struggling to keep my shit together in the world that tries to make me crazy.
