So as you can see from the title what I want to talk about is motivation more specifically how it affects peoples lives and were to get it.
I'm a 19 year old guy in his last year of high school and since I've been young I've never really been passionate about anything, by that I mean that yeah I might like some games or movies or books but I've never really felt anything more than a mild like. But of course that wouldn't be such a problem if it didn't extend to the rest of my life too,you know,school,people and basically everything else, I just never have any motivation to do anything.Sure I start plenty of things but I always stop after a couple of days or weeks.And now the problem is that tomorrow I have to take the first of my final exams and I have learned close to nothing. I always managed to have really good grades at school without much effort and I'm in a really crappy situation I don't know what to do and I'm starting to panic, since basically my whole life will be decided by this test. I just see all these people so perseverant and passionate about things and happy and I have no idea how they manage to do that, most of the time I'm just really sad.I feel like I'm failing at life, I don't know what I'm gonna do with myself, not to mention all the people that I'm gonna disappoint(because of the aforementioned good grades in school).
In the end I don't really know what I expected to achieve by writing this, but any advice would be nice.Did you guys ever have this sort of problem?How did you overcome it?
