I got a problem with lack of energy and enthusiasm during the school year. Last year the same thing happened and it seems to destroy all improvements i make over the summer. What happens is once i get into school i last about a week and then everything seems to break down and i basically become a zombie. I am forced to wake up at 5:20 so that i have time to catch my bus which takes a whole hour to get to school (we have litterally like 30 stops that are really out of the way). I've tried going to bed as early as 7:30 but that hasnt helped me much at all. How can i get more energy?
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
Try going to sleep early (like you said you've tried) and wake up 30 mins BEFORE you normally do. This is so you can get yourself fully prepared and awake for school. What I do before school is do some pushups, situps, or barbell curls to get the blood/testosterone going. I also take a few minutes (if I have the time...) to mentally prepare myself by looking in the mirror and giving myself encouragement. I try to remember everything that I need to apply in my life, my goals, and how good of a person I already am. Try it.

drink lots of water, get lots of sleep and cease jerking off for a week and you should have plenty of energy. Also what kind of foods do you eat? I find i'm alot lower on energy when i eat ****ty food like pizza and burgers too much.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
If you have tried all of this and are still feeling tired, then maybe it is all in your head. My advice for somebody that feels lethargic all the time is to actually get MORE busy. When I was in high school, I didn't really get much homework or have a job or anything, so I had too much spare time, and would usually fall asleep during the middle of the day. I have not fallen asleep in the middle of the day in the two years out of high school thanks to a more hectic schedule. Not only that, but I have NEVER felt lethargic either. I'm not saying that it is foolproof, but I bet if you had more going on in your life, you wouldn't need to sleep over ten hours a day. Hopefully nobody thinks I'm TOO crazy, as illogical as all of this sounds. laterz
