Trouble with concentration and motivation in school

I've been having a really hard time getting my work done lately, I usually get home from school and sleep right away because I'm exhausted from my day. Weekends are hard because I work saturday then the rest of the time I procrastinate and watch youtube videos:( It's been a lot worse lately and I'm really stressing myself out but right now I'm going to try listening to music to help me stay concentrated. I highly recommend listening to video game music because it really gets you hyped and into what you're working on. (Skyrim music is my favorite)

@Pinecat

There is time in the day for all the things you want & need to do. Try and make a reasonable schedule for week 1. If you keep to it, reward yourself in some way. Then up the stakes and make a schedule for week 2. I think you get the idea.

It's so easy to avoid the things we should be doing. I know that. Take small steps. You'll get there.

@Pinecat Have you read The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Teens by Sean Covey?

@unassumingHouse646 no but I'll definitely check it out! I appreciate the recommendation

@JeffWM thanks a lot! I'll try it out as soon as I graduate in a week or so because for right now I'm just getting school stuff done

Get through graduation! Congrats! You do have time. There are people that care very much. I care. I'm glad I came across your post.
