Too lazy to make a difference

You obviously just don't want what TRP lifestyle has to offer enough. Or at least you don't want to work to get it, everyone feels like that sometimes. You probably just are making yourself temporarily happy to avoid doing anything e.g. (computer games, alcohol, drugs). They all just offer a little fun but nothing good in the long run. Eventually you'll realise you've been wasting time on pointless stuff and actually change your life but until that point you're just going to be lazy.

You could always use a certain chick you fancy as motivation, just don't onetitis over her.

Anything worth doing in life is going to be hard.

You shouldn't force yourself to pick up new bullshit hobbies you clearly aren't enjoying, but video gaming (or anything else) can be destructive if taken in too much excess. It's on you to be honest with yourself there.

You probably haven't found enough real reason to take action, or you'd be doing it. The best way to get started on a new path, if you want to really try it, is Monk Mode. You either do it or don't, but fuck motivation. Motivation is a fickle bitch that comes and goes, you need to cultivate discipline.

Your willpower is a muscle like any other. You haven't used it enough, and it's weak. Start doing anything, and do the things you say you're going to do, and you'll gradually start strengthening it. Only then can you build momentum, and you'll have strong discipline to fall back on when you don't feel like doing shit (mainly referring to lifting here).

I can't give a shit about your pathetic life for you, you've gotta pull that one on your own. Step 1 for me was fail at something that mattered a lot to me. Step 2 was put down the video games. Step 3 is make friends who are better than you and learn from them. Step 4 is whatever you decide will make you improve your sad existence.

I started lifting 2 months ago but I quit because I got bored.... Whenever I tell myself to go out and socialize I just find myself playing video games.

Nobody here can force you to give a shit about your own life. Have fun dying alone.
