I have 2 more Half Yearly exams and I'm really just procrastinating because I lack the motivation to study. How do you motivate yourself to study?

Recall the awful feeling of doing badly and knowing it was preventable and avoid it at all cost.
^ this. it sucks that you get a bad mark but it certains motivates you to improve.

Thinking of sitting in the actual exam, knowing that I read something about it already but not being able to recall what it was because I gave up.
There's also that youtube video "how bad do you want it?" that motivates me. You're already in pain. You're already suffering. Don't quit, get a reward out of it.

I know how you feel man, it's an awful feeling to tbh and frankly I'm still working on the problem myself. It's just so fcking hard, I always get depressed thinking about school and how I feel like an ultimate failure. ALL. THE. TIME. But I'm still trying to motivate myself by limiting distractions (still hard to overlook them) and talking to my dad about it who's my best friend.

It's good to have a goal or aim. e.g. what result/outcome would you like in the future. Dwell on the satisfaction you'd get if you achieved it
