How to prevent my mind from drifting off during lectures
I have weird quirk/tendency to stop listening / be distracted when someone explains something like during lectures for example. I fking hate this and it makes me dangerously close to failing college.
Generally, I don't have it elsewhere. Just when someone is doing a verbal explanation, online or in person.
Perhaps it's an issue of concentration, although generally I am able to do homework when I'm alone and focussing on it. At same time, I do get distracted relatively easily.
What is wrong with me? How to force myself to pay attention during classes and not doze off?
There is no fucking way anything is wrong with people who can’t pay attention. Our species, for like five bajillion years, was hunting, gathering, and doing active work to survive. Now we are expected to sit for 8+ hours a day and do the same shit over and over. Yea sure I’m “disabled”.
College is boring as fuck. Fuck majors, fuck a “path” . Take things that interest you and do at least that work.
