Make it into a game, a maze (make it harder for yourself :-) or figure out how, if you were in charge of inventing "school" what it would be like, how you would teach yourself the same stuff and then do it that way?

Boredom can sometimes come down to

a) Strugging / lack of understanding of more difficult concepts in a subject

or

b) They're not engaging enough for you

The only thing I can think of to say is really push yourself, give yourself a challenge, see how far you can go in the subjects that are of interest to you.

Even if they're not particularly of interest to you, give it your best shot - don't wait for the motivation to arrive - because it might never .... but good athletes? They wake up every morning with their shoes and their running clothes out already from the night before - they put it on - and they get out there and they go. Their end goal - finish the race in the fastest time.

What is your goal?

To achieve well in certain areas?

Work on your long term goals and try to focus on these.
