well you must like it a bit if you took the trouble to learn how to play.
and you go to school, play videogames (I assume), listen to music...
and here's some motivation for you: would you like to win the lottery? sure you do! can't fix that for you, but if you work hard in school, you'll get a job with a good salary!

I want degrees in ecology and/or botany, for example, so I can earn a comfortable sum of money, retire and spend the rest of my days pottering about with various hobbies and research.
You don't need an overarching ambition. But you do need to look at the facts. Dicking around requires money.

Well, I'm all out of ideas. I guess the only other thing left for him to do is motivate himself.
Try putting yourself in a situation you wouldn't find yourself in normally. If you lack motivation, it means you're stuck in a hole. Get out of it and do something completely out of character.
