Motivation?

Think of something that you would like to do but can't because your afraid. Then go do it. This may sound simple minded but lazyness and fear can combine and really mess a life up (believe me I know).
 
Z I know what you mean. Stretch out years to decades and you describe me for the most part. The only things I ever get excited about is games and hanging out with friends. Everything else, which is most of the time, falls into the blahs category. Hence why I try to fill so much of my time with games and friends. Sometimes I can even include my family in the friends part, and that's when life is really good. YMMV
 
i no exactly what u mean. im in HS and i basically have forgotten why i get up in the morning, shit i dont have any reason to except if my mom threatens to start taking all my stuff away or taking me outa music stuff. Shoot my grades are in the fucking toilet and im screwed for alot stuff cuz of this. plus im getting all nervous about it just cuz ppl keep threatening me to get stuff done or else. I honestly dont care but i dont wanna draw attention to mysefl for being an absolute failure, which is not wat i wanna become. shit im having trouble diggin myself outa this one.:confused:
 
I know what you mean, zolly. I'm in that phase right now.

I think it was that movie, Office Space that changed me. It was the phrase "I'm not lazy, I just don't care!" that became my motto. But after getting some bad grades, I've decided that it's worth it to trade time on the computer, with time doing homework.


In fact, today I had a parent-teacher conference and they said my grades were fine the first trimester, but they sort of did a backslide in the 2nd. One teacher (which I have a B in his class) said it wasn't a lack of interest, I just was too tired to do anything. Personally, I think it's a lack of interest. And I have a B in his class, so he can't say anything unless my grades are low.

Another teacher said I just wasn't organized enough, which I think is half the battle, for me anyways.

I picked up a hobby, drums. I stopped playing basketball and doing karate as much, but I'm really advancing with druming and I like it a lot. Karate stopped being fun for me, and I already made it up to black belt- I lost interest in basketball.

My motivation for my grades? A sense of fullfillment and...summer school.
