Sometimes you just need rest yourself and want to taking time for yourself. It's okay. Sometimes classroom being boring or you feel unhappy there. Just remember that you are human and you need to be free. But class not bad at all. I mean there are something good and bad there. But I think you just learn to be positive thinking and think about your future. Yeah, education not guarantee all of our future.. But it Will help you.. The impact is deal with your pain every you step at class. And then.. My last advice.. Don't force yourself. Just make reflection, "what do you want for your future life?"

It sounds like you are having trouble to attend the class. There can be many reasons behind that. Like your class is on a time where you don't feel convenient to go to it may be difficult for you to attend classes on such a time. So in that case I would suggest to have someone with you go attend class with your buddy. And if it is too early then set up alarm so you can wake up early and try to sleep early. It can be difficult sometimes to attend class but if you make yourself disciplined to go there no matter how you feel then a time will come when you'll feel better . So keep trying you'll get better. And make good friends that way you can also get help in attending the class. Exercise keep yourself healthy it may also help you

There are times in life when we become so overwhelmed that getting out of bed is a great task! If there are a lot of stress in our life and e have to work on resolving them before we can move forward! Taking one step at a time and completing smaller tasks will help to prepare us for the next task! Just like climbing stairs; each step is an incline, the lower the step the easier it is to master it! So with things we do in life we must take one step at a time until we are able to achieve the desired goal!

Personally, I have experience the 'hard-ships' of college. Maybe it's one lesson, maybe it's one person or just having to get up at 6 for a 9 am lesson. But it makes you not want to go. I used to hate going to class, and the more I focus ongoing to class, the more I dread going, so I take days off which only makes it harder to go back. So, I focus on one thing I like that lesson, maybe it's sitting next to someone I like or that during that lesson I will learn something new. Looking forward to one thing makes the whole lesson seem a bit betterI

There are many factors at play when forcing one's self to do something. Going to class for example, you have to think about what make you not want to go to class and why you would want to force yourself to go to class. Let me bring up an example. One might not want to go to class because one is addicted to video games. Going to class, here, presents many challenges. You would not want to go to class because you would be away from your video game which causes you to panic. In this situation, it is important to contact a health care professional who can help you or provide you with resources and referrals to overcome an addiction.

When you try to force yourself to go to class, you're exercising your will. Your will is a muscle, not a calculator. Calculators, you press "2 + 2 =" and you get "4," and that's equally the result, no matter how many times you try it. A muscle, on the other hand, gets tired over time, the more you do with it, the more worn down it gets. If you don't feel like you have the willpower to achieve your priorities, one way is to arrange your life to be less hard (so you don't tire you will on less-important tasks). Another is to increase your effective willpower (by sleeping better, for example). Without knowing more about your situation, it's hard to tell which is the next right step—simplifying your life or helping yourself to be more healthy. Perhaps both.

There could be so many reasons! Leaning towards the side of motivation to go to class though, I can give a bit of an explanation. Motivation is the reason why someone is behaving a certain way, and getting out of bed, or doing something fun (a super short-term reward) vs. going to class (long term reward because we all know how far away graduating seems) is going to want to win every time because more reward correlates with more of the behavior that gets the reward. So you have to try harder to feel like you 'want' to go because you may not be getting rewarded enough (in some way or another) in class. Plus it's very hard to transition from one thing or another, especially when you're already in the middle of a huge transition anyway, which is being in school and feeling the pressures of all of that. Good luck, my friend, you are not alone. Just try your best!! :-)

Motivation can be a hard thing to focus. I know for me, it was because I was depressed and anxious. For my partner, it was because he has ADHD and has trouble focusing or remembering things. It could be that you have too much on your plate, that you have something going on in your personal life, that you are having trouble balancing school with work and normal life. The best person that can help you with that is your school counselor. They are trained to help, and they want to help, students succeed. They are there to listen, guide you to resources, and can even help you with things unrelated to school. When you pay tuition, part of that money is for services and facilities, such as counselors. This, like any material your tuition pays for, is there to help you succeed as a student.

Well, one thing I've learned while trying to understand my motivation and performance is that I can't really "force" myself to do anything. Honestly. Even the things I used to think about as things that I "must" do turned out to be things that I really can't force myself to carry out. No one's gonna force you to go to class, do your homework, be a good partner, or any of that. You have to come to the conclusion that you truly and deeply want those things because you believe that they can make your life better. If you don't fully understand why you're doing something, or if you feel like it's useless, there's no way you'll commit to it.

I can able to understand what you are feeling. This is not a big problem. I think you can sort out this very quickly and will be a successful person in your life. Ask yourself the question why you cannot go to the class. Think what is the fear in going to the class. And also think what is the best part in going to the class. You always remind your mind that you are not coward . You are very brave to handle any situation. You jave power to solve any problems in your life easily
