Indeed, it is difficult to keep that "School Mode" mentality. I go straight from school to work so it helps a little. But I still find homework to be tedious.

 

[Spic Steve]

I myself have no problem keeping my school mode on. I even do projects the day i'm told about them. lol.

Sorry, but i have no advise on this subject.

 

[violent_anger]

so...help pl0x????????????

 

[Stavvy]

You're having a problem now with keeping that, "I have to do work. . ." mentality?

I'm not sure what your problem is now. . .

 

[violent_anger]

>.>

i need help getting motivated for school because it all feels easy and pointless. the school mode thing was one bit of advice, i need more

 

[Stavvy]

Well even if it seems pointless, it's not. You have to go through school to get your diploma, go to collage, degree in whatever and get a good high paying job.

It's worth it, just keep telling yourself to push through everything and wait it out, it'll be fine.

 

[violent_anger]

*roll eyes*

i know that, but that wont make any difference, i'll still slack off, and i'll still only do half of my homework

 

[Stavvy]

Well you can't do that, if you do then you'll get alf credit, and later on your teachers won't even accept it.

Currently what have you done?

 

[violent_anger]

credit? i'm in 8th grade ...

 

[Stavvy]

No I mean recently, what have you done(homework wise, have you been completing it, if not then why?)

 

[violent_anger]

i've been doing it in class for the most part, while leaving my text books at home to rot, so i end up doing half of it

 

[Spic Steve]

That's good. Just think it's classwork. You should have that school mentality in school.

 

[violent_anger]

-_-
no

Violent_anger if you cant seem to find the motivation to do your homework then firstly, take your textbooks with you. Leaving your books to rot isnt the best idea if you want to get a challenging class later on. You cant expect to be placed somewhere challenging if you dont prove yourself worthy of it. Just having the ability to do it isnt enough, I should know as i get the same lecture every single day of my life as i dont apply myself enough as im not bothered. You on the otherhand actually want a challenge so yeah, just expecting it to be placed on your lap isnt going to get you anywhere and not being able to find the so called school mode isnt helping. If you truly want it than you can get that frame of mind to get it, its just having the willpower to make yourself motivated.

>.< Umm yeah sorry for joining in so late with the helping and stuff also, sorry violent_anger for repeating myself a dozen times in that paragraph.

 

[violent_anger]

so you just repeated what stav already said...

(sorry about posting even though I'm not an official helper, but I feel like helping =P)


I know how you feel with showing work!!!
Jeez... 8+ steps my but. Why do I have to waste my time when I could do it with 5 steps less, and only have those 2 other steps to remind me where I'm at if need be?

Anyways, just show the work. To me, showing work is like doing homework. I have to put up with it.


You want motivation? Start doing well and you get better grades, putting you in higher classes. Higher classes means more of a challenge. More of a challenge means you get more involved. More involvement means better grades. ad infintum.

Kind of like this:

my lack of motivation leads to bad grades, my bad grades lead to easy highschool classes, my easy highschool classes lead to an even greater lack of motivation, ad infinitum.

except you have to give it that umph to get it started.

As for homework, do it after school. Force yourself until you do it out of habit.
I find myself doing it at 5 in the morning because I have bad habbits. Try not to be like me; I won't learn my lesson until I find myself unable to do it in the morning anymore (I usually do the majority before bed though...).

School is a pain in the ass. You know it.
Spending time with friends (when you get the chance) does make it easier tho. Find more time to spend with friends.


Hope I've been helpful, somewhat.

 

[Stavvy]

Basically all the advice you're going to get is some varient of what any of us have said, just shut up and do your work.

Sorry to sound mean but that's the plain and simple truth, put up with it, just get out of that "School's over, now I can relax" mentality. Your day isn't over till your work is completely done(I sound like a freakin adult. . .)

You're not really going to get any other type of advice. . .

 

[violent_anger]

how sad for this thread, time was the only one who got close to good advice. what most of you said was little more then generic advice, not useless, but far from worth being restated a dozen times.

 

[Darkness Princess]

Harsh. If you find our advice useless and if its exactly the same, why didnt you just stop asking after Time had given you the advice you needed?

 

[violent_anger]

I said time got close, as in not right, but closer then you guys got. I was hoping that a half dozen people would be able to think of something that i hadn't, but other then the 'school mode' thing, i was quite disappointed. and no, the 'school mode' thing wasn't good advice either, it was decent, but not good
