    hey, what's up?
    This year i started a two year course in conservation and land management which i really enjoyed untill about july this year. After july ended i started losing my enthusiasm in the course which is a bit of a worry because i still have another year left. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas of how i could stay motivated and interested keeping in mind i can get VERY lazy. I really need to finish this course for a number of reasons so please heap!!
    peace

    Are you going to a school to take the course? Maybe try getting involved in stuff that interests you.

    What about making friends? So you have a reason to go to school everyday-to see them.

    It may just be a matter of forcing yourself to go. Sometimes that happens to me and I force myself to do the work and to make the effort, and after a while, I gain my motivation back.

    Trust me, no one loses interest in things quicker than me! I have like 30 hobbies to keep my busy because I keep getting bored with just one so I move on to another. Try making yourself enthusiastic.

    Yeah, if there's really nothing you like about that course anymore you should just force yourself....I had the same problem with my music school when I was little, I didn't like my teachers and spending too much time there when I had thigs to do for my regular school was a real drag, but I kept thinking how I'll have full musical knowledge when I finish it (and how I don't like leaving things undone) so I tried and forced myself and after finishing it I started to play the piano as much as never did when I was in that school and really got to love music...
    good luck :)
