Thanks.I need advice for my life on how to stop my laziness, be more active and have the life i want.?
OK I understand what you're going through because I have a procrastination problem myself. What I do to keep focused is thinking of consequences that will occur if I don't stay focused. As for your grades, you're doing excellently. A grade of 93 is awesome!!!!! Really, anything above 80 is really good. At my high school, having an average of 80 or over would entitle one to Honors. With the marks you have you could get lots of scholarships.
Now, how to deal with your mom's high expectations. I think the best way to solve any problem is communication. Ask your mom if you can sit down and talk with her sometime. Make sure you allot about an hour to an hour and a half for this... you don't want to speed through it. Explain to her your viewpoint, and voice your opinion on what you want to be when you become an adult. In my opinion, only you should decide your future. If you let anyone else do it for you, you could end up not enjoying your career.
When you're speaking, make sure to be calm and controlled. Do everything you can to avoid an argument. For example, it seems like you don't like it when your mom yells at you. Try using the phrase, ';When you ________, I feel ________.'; Fill in the blanks with ';yell at me'; and ';sad';.
You could also explain to her why you love baseball so much. Tell her that playing baseball makes you happy, and also mention that your coach has said that you have the potential to become great. One note though: don't settle on becoming a baseball superstar. I imagine it is very difficult to make it to the top. Being a business person or working in finance would also be a great job to have. And with your knowledge in math, I bet you could work in this area.
If you're mom doesn't allow you to play baseball right away, try to compromise with her. Show her how much you want to play baseball by working hard in school. For example, study hard for tests. When you do well, show her that you care about it by telling her what your grade was and how good it felt to be successful on the test. Even show a little excitement. This is to show how the work (studying) paid off.
Once you settle things with your mom (however don't get discouraged if she doesn't change right away... improving a relationship can take time) and you are doing better in school, you will likely find that you are a happier person. Use this new-found happiness to tackle another goal: becoming more fit. Tell yourself everyday that by exercising, you will become better at sports, and feel better about your appearance.
On the girls topic: not all girls are uptight and just want a hot guy. There are lots of girls that are not so shallow. Most importantly, be yourself, be polite, be considerate, be compassionate. Don't try to be something you're not. And don't get discouraged if your first guy-girl relationship doesn't work out. There are a lot of girls out there. It just might take some time to find the right one.
Don't forget, your goals may not come easily, you will have to work to achieve them. The first step is believing in yourself, and believing you can achieve your goals. Don't get discouraged if things don't work out exactly how you plan them to. There are also resources other than Yahoo Answers... your school probably has a counselor you can talk to. He or she will probably give better advice than me or any other person here.
I really hope this helps. Good luck.I need advice for my life on how to stop my laziness, be more active and have the life i want.?
You have to mentally put yourself in a place where you are ready for change- when you are ready for change and put the routine into motion it will become easier and the cravings and laziness will lessen.
You have to make a decision and you can't break it. You have to decide and stick with it. You have to want to change more than you want to be comfortable.
Forget your mom and do what you want to do and stick to it.
