Is it normal to feel like you wasting your life.

Ok here's the things, I have passions and dreams I really want to accomplish for a better future but(this may seem like a lame excuse)but I'm struggling to do those things because over the past few years I've become more lazy and unfocused, I used to when I was little would spend hours and days writing, drawing, playing music, etc. At least in my middle school and part of high school days but lately I haven't been putting action in my dreams despite literally thinking about it on a daily basis, something comes up which distracts me and I find some excuse to not pursue it despite in my mind that I really want to pursue it like being a novelist and working on animation(while also singing) which I wanna do in the future but simply can't because my attention spanned has weakened over the course of me growing up, and its not like I haven't been wring on these passions, just not as much as a few years ago.

Ok to many of you it maybe my fault and that I've brought this to myself, yes I have been trying methods of getting myself to actually focus(going to the library, secluded places, etc.) but is there anything else I can do? I'm I the only one who feels this way.

    I find it easier to focus if you have someone doing the things with you. Call up a friend and be like

    "BITCH! Guess what?!?!? Grab yo climbing gear and go to mah house next Wednesday!" *hangs up*"

    Then when they get there, write a story together about a a guy who gets a random ass phone call about mountain climbing, but when he gets there the event has nothing to do with mountain climbing.

    I know that sounds crazy (because it is), but it works!

    everyone feels this way but they don't say it because it's boring and no one cares. it's only up to you. so if you dont like it change it. or else get used to it.

    You used to be intrinsically motivated. Now you need goals.
