My life has went downwards since the start of high-school and I feel as if there's no turning back. Back in elementary school, I was everything most kids hoped they were: popular (with the girls too ^^), intelligent, outgoing, popular.

My productivity was really high. I was a hard worker in my early ages so I could get homework done in a couple of minutes that often took others an hour and was one of the smartest kids in the school.

Now I'm anything but the description I just told you. I feel like I have succumbed to a lot of things such as the computer and Internet and video games. Yes I know this is sad but not only that, I do not seem to have that kind of productivity level anymore.

I take extremely long to work on tasks, most of the time I find it hard to concentrate. And a lot of other things... I just feel like I'm kind of hopeless. The biggest problem is that I'll get a burst of motivation and then in about a 2 weeks, I'll just lose it and it's the same cycle again.

So I was wondering what kind of advice Steve Pavlina people might have for me? ^^ Thanks.
