The bouncing around shouldn't be that troubling especially if you are young. You should be trying as many different things as you can to figure out your true path. Get some sleep though. It's very important to your health and happiness.Kitaev_Model said:
Try to surround yourself with more positive people who believe in you. Changing your environment really helps, if it is possible. I've been through this before, and I can't lie, it is a tough thing to go through, especially since what they say will always be a nagging thought at the back of your head whenever you fail. You need to find people who believe in you and support you, as well as do something you have a passion in.Monsterboy said:
Well, I think it is important to have a rough idea of your limits before starting. I.e., It may not be wise to jump into a calculus course if you don't yet know precalc algebra and trig.Monsterboy said:
I felt the exact same way when I had to take material sciences, dynamics, and thermodynamics this semester, given that I'm not in mechanical or chemical engineering. However, you're going to have to force yourself to get excited about this content. Look in the mirror and tell yourself you enjoy it. (It works best for me).blue_leaf77 said:

Unfortunately, you need strong self-discipline to get studying stuff you don't have any interest it. My shocking lack of self control has meant I have probably sabotaged my first year at uni.Greg Bernhardt said:
Identifying learning challenges can be a complex and ongoing process. It often involves self-reflection, seeking feedback from others, and working with professionals such as teachers or counselors. In my experience, I found that paying attention to when I struggled with certain tasks or subjects, and reflecting on why I was struggling, helped me identify my learning challenges.
Overcoming learning challenges requires a multifaceted approach. I found that breaking tasks into smaller, more manageable chunks, using visual aids and mnemonic devices, and seeking additional support from teachers or tutors were effective strategies for me. It's important to find what works best for you and to be open to trying new strategies.
Staying motivated while overcoming learning challenges can be difficult, but it's important to remember that progress takes time and effort. I found it helpful to set achievable goals and celebrate small victories. It's also important to have a support system, whether it's friends, family, or professionals, who can provide encouragement and motivation during difficult times.
Overcoming learning challenges is not a linear process, and setbacks or failures are a natural part of the journey. I faced many setbacks and failures, but I learned to see them as opportunities for growth and to not let them discourage me. Instead, I used them as opportunities to adjust my strategies and keep moving forward.
My advice would be to remember that everyone's learning journey is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution. It's important to be patient with yourself, seek support when needed, and never give up. I also recommend being open to trying new strategies and finding what works best for you. Most importantly, don't let your learning challenges define you - you are capable of achieving great things despite any challenges you may face.
