I searched on google but I also want to hear some advises from any people who encountered this or any psychologist out here if there's any. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

P.S: I'm in college, 2nd year (Work's a lot more serious this time than before so I need to work seriously too.
Hello! I totally understand what you are going through. I too have procrastinated in the past that many of my university assignments were done last minute. I would like to encourage you to keep on doing your best to stay focused on the work that you do! What you are saying isn't confusing or stupid. Your dreams are important to you, and if the obstacle of procrastination is what's keeping you from your dreams than that's what you
need to tackle.

Personally, aside from making lists of tasks that need to be done, I made sure that I was never seated for longer than 20 minutes. When you are working on your tasks, do you find yourself fidgeting? Then if that is the case, get up, walk around and think about the point that you are currently working on. Or, take one or two of the questions that you are working on and work on them only. Then do a physical activity that will get your mind off of the mundane task of doing those last two questions, then after a bit of movement go back to the next few questions.

I learn best when I move.

Hope this helps, and good luck with your studies! You got this.
