Im really slacking. Im not motivated. My energy levels are low. my focus is gone. how do i regain that back? I’m not doing as well as I should be in some classes. tips appreciated!
you really just have to have good work ethic and force yourself imo
Visit a remedial math class at your community college and imagine yourself there next September. Scared straight
Ask yourself why would you do anything to jeopardize all of the hard work you have done in HS?
I don’t think imagining failure, berating yourself, or forcing yourself are the best ideas - may be easier said than done. OP - you’re clearly responsible and asking for help, so I’m going to give you a straight and pragmatic answer.
Here are my suggestions:
- Keep a planner - it ties you more to your commitments, and checking off tasks makes doing work more rewarding
- Have a system of work and breaks - work for 30 minutes then break for 5 and repeat - it keeps fatigue from setting in.
- Deactivate your social media - it’ll eliminate distraction. It’s hard at first but gets easier.
- Get to know your teachers - it’s harder to disregard their work if you view them as a respected friend.
