Hello. I am a freshman in college. I started procrastinating I think in freshman year of high school but it wasn't that bad. I still got my work done. By junior year, I stopped caring about things. I have to say I am studious and a good student but I just stopped caring about doing schoolwork and would try to get it done the class period before or early in the morning before school. Did I complete all my assignments by doing this? No. Idk why I am careless about my grades, my future. I am not sure if this is just because I'm lazy and there's more fun things to do (computer) or if there is something wrong deep down... I have been a fantastic student since elementary and I think freshman year too. Also I hung out with this girl who was just more focused on fun than hw. But I don't know if a person can impact another person like that so much.
I am a freshman in college now and I still don't like doing my work. It's gotten so bad that I don't even do it. I try to get it done in the mornings and sometimes I finish but I would rather do fun games or stray away from anything that has to do with homework.
I think it's a serious problem but I feel like I don't have enough motivation, enough care, to do anything about it.
I have written on my whiteboard like Please get it done. You'll feel so much better being on top of your tasks. But it still hasn't helped. It helped a little. I just don't like doing the work and I guess I don't see how detrimental it can be. Maybe I feel like I can be successful even though I don't do my assignments. I dunno. Please help.
