Inactivity, Cussing, Depression (not really), and seeking change

     I didn't really do anything today.  I checked out job listings on craigslist, I called two potential employers, and I e-mailed a job resume.  I read some bar exam related stuff about preparation, not really substance.  As a matter of fact, I have yet to really study.  I'm so uncertain as to my job and study plans.
   
     I don't really know how to describe my feelings.  I am a person of serious faith.  I consider myself to be very spiritual, though not religious.  I keep my language clean especially in the presence of others.  But I can tell you, since recieiving the news of my second bar exam failure, I have unleashed a serious fusillade of expletives.  I believe I have cussed more in the past eleven to twelve days than I have in the past five years.
   
     I am not one who really succumbs to depression, but I took a nap during the day today which I rarely ever do.  When I am alone, in silence, or in bed, all I keep thinking about are the problems I missed.  I keep wondering what I need to change.  I keep thinking to myself, "[w]hy can't I just be better?  I need to be better.  I have to change." 
    
    I NEED TO CHANGE.  G-d will not change.  The Universe will not change.  My circumstances will not change.  I NEED TO CHANGE.  I must be better.  How can I be better?  What is the next step?  Where can I find the answer to this question?
