I apologize if this doesn’t directly correlate to sexual strategy, but I feel that this is a better forum than any other to ask for advice from as it relates to how I feel as a “man.”

I’m in High School; my grades are shit, and I’ve lately been having trouble forming any real bonds with people. I’ve been improving myself; I recently began lifting. But I feel no actual motivation. When I lift, although I’m still a beginner, I never go the extra mile. And I feel very little desire to make the effort to pull my grades out of the shitter.

I understand that motivation is not a replacement for discipline, but how do I build discipline when I have zero motivation in the first place? I feel completely empty, even borderline depressed. I do at least have an ‘IDGAF’ attitude though.
