I know I should be studying, but all I want to do is listen to music, surf the web, and watch movies.

We don't always do our homework/study together but we always make sure the other person has their work done. If one of us is slacking we put the pressure on them and get them motivated again. And we have a little healthy competition to see who can get the higher grades. If it wasn't for a few of these guys I know for a fact there was a few times I would have gotten considerably lower scores on some of my exams.

Finding motivation when feeling stuck can be challenging, but it is not impossible. One strategy is to break down your goal into smaller, more manageable tasks. This can help create a sense of accomplishment and momentum. Additionally, try to identify and address any underlying factors that may be contributing to your lack of motivation, such as stress or lack of sleep.
If you are struggling to pinpoint the root cause of your lack of motivation, it may be helpful to reflect on your goals and priorities. Ask yourself why these goals are important to you and how achieving them will positively impact your life. You can also seek support from a therapist or trusted friend to talk through your feelings and gain a different perspective.
Long-term goals can be overwhelming and it is common to lose motivation along the way. One way to stay motivated is to regularly remind yourself of the bigger picture and the reasons why you started pursuing this goal. It can also be helpful to break down your long-term goal into smaller, achievable milestones and celebrate each step along the way.
Self-care is essential for maintaining motivation. When we neglect our physical and mental well-being, it becomes difficult to find the energy and drive to pursue our goals. Make sure to prioritize activities that help you feel refreshed and recharged, such as exercise, spending time in nature, or engaging in a hobby.
Negativity can be draining and can easily diminish our motivation. It is important to remember that we have control over our own thoughts and emotions. Practice positive self-talk and surround yourself with supportive and encouraging people. You can also try to reframe negative thoughts into more positive ones and focus on the progress you have made rather than any setbacks.
