Why can't I sit still?


So I'm approaching the downhill slope of my Master's degree program. I've got 9 hours left to complete before I have a Master's in IT Management. Why IT management you may ask. Why not I say? I figured that I understand IT even though I wouldn't classify myself as really being interested in it outside of the paycheck it brings, but I really wanted my Master's degree to seperate myself from everyone that has a bachelors degree now days. I would've went after the "ALL IMPRESSIVE" MBA but I just couldn't stomach the idea of taking more finance and accounting type classes. I have to take a couple of those in this program and it's just painful to me.

But, I digress. Now that I'm on the downhill slope of this program I've found myself contemplating what I'm going to go after once I've finished. I know I don't want to get a Phd just because I don't see myself teaching in a University setting really and it wouldn't really benefit me in my current position that much. So there is a Leadership Institute in the town that I live in that the Chamber or Commerce and local government sponsor. So I've been contemplating applying for it. I don't remember how many people they take each year but I'd have to be sponsored by my company I think.

So I'm wondering why I feel like I have to be achieving something? Is that weird?
