How can I stop procrastinating and start FOCUSING????
I am here to help, if I can. Is there a major distraction in your life right now, that has caused you to give up on homework, & maybe other things as well? Sometimes, we get overwhelmed by distractions & lose focus, such as you have. I can only advise you to recognize anything that has gotten you sidelined where homework is concerned. Your future depends on your education, so try to get back on track, one day at a time. You have to have a positive attitude, especially where school/homework are concerned. When you get home from school from now on, tell yourself that it's time to do your homework before anything else. Do it in a part of your home that is comfortable & where there are no distractions. Do the assignments in such a way that you're used to doing them. (ie: easy assignments first, etc.) Train your thought patterns, once again, & apply yourself, so that your homework is done first, allowing you to do the things you enjoy in the evening. That will be accomplished by being both determined, as well as focused. Put a pair of "invisible" blinders on when it comes to other distractions, if you can.Tell yourself that you can do it once again, & it will set the ball in motion. Is there a parent you can talk to about how you're feeling, instead of keeping it all bottled up? If not, school councelors are there for you & it will be kept confidential. If you are deeply troubled by one or more things, discuss it with your parents/counselors/trusted adult. It kind of sounds as though you may have given up on yourself, & you don't want to do that. You're not a quitter! Take it slow, & before you know it, you'll be just as you used to be, focused & determined. You can do it!!!! Chin up!!!

I seriously need to stop procrastinating!!! help!!!!?
i seriously need help and ideas of how to stop procrastinating. this is what happened last year at school: the teachers dump piles of assignments on us. i have to stay up to 1am every night just finishing them!! sometimes, i put off projects to the night before, so i can sleep earlier, and get my "required" 8hrs of z's. also, i try to study for a test day by day, but it doesnt work, b/c i end up putting off studying all the hard sections on the day before a test! all suggestions are welcome =] thank you!
