I need some advice. What do you use as motivation for you? I’m going back to school this fall……?

I graduated H.S in 04-Since then things have gone downhill.In H.S i had dreams and goals that i was going to fulfill.I knew what i wanted & how i was going to get it. but after my first semester of college things took a turn.

I got distracted with other things, lost sight of what i really wanted.now 3 years later i’ve only completed a semester’s worth of classes (i mean actually passing…with good grades i will add) i’ve attempted & dropped 3 yrs worth classes & am now on both academic &progress probation-meaning i can only take 2-3 classes at a time til i complete/pass 50% of all classes i’ve dropped.& lately i’ve been depresssed with how i’ve let my life to turn out. i feel the need to get back on track. its sad to say that i have friends that have recently told me that they are graduating with degrees this coming winter. I should be there with them-i’m determined but scared that i’ll keep dropping classes even though i REALLY want this.how can i stay motivated & speed things up?

You have to get in the mindset of going back to school. And how you are going to stay on track is called “delayed gratification.” You tell yourself that you will have a good career, many times when you have a good career you will find a good man to date, and a good life will follow. Stay focused on your studies. College is expensive so don’t waste your time playing with friends you meet at college. Remember while you played, your friends studied and are now graduating. Get going and you will be amazed how quickly the years go buy and soon you will be on that stage getting the diploma and entering a new phase of your life. Good for you!

you just got to think that school is really important and in the long run it will help tremendously. u dont want to have minimum wage jobs when u know u could make so much more money. all u have to do is really buckle down for 4 years and study really hard. if u done that before u would be graduating soon. with education a good life is sure to follow you. you are definetly able to graduate from college and maybe even get a masters. its all about telling yourself that you can do it and never think oh who cares about school, i want to party with my friends. u’ve got all the time after school to party but now its about really focusing on your education. dont lose sight of what u want!!! ill stop talking now lol

GOOD LUCK! : )

www.ratemyprofessors.com is what motivates me. its a site where students rate their professors from easy to worst. maybe you could select your schedule by having a easy professor to start with.
