Habits and keep motivation

I could need some advice and discussions about being sucessful AND happy in once. I know this is very abstract and everybody definies sucessful different, thats the reason why i start introducing myself, be me: > Mid twenties > got BA degree in computer science with 1.7 grade (germany) in usa it should be B+ or GPA 3.3 > starting my Master degree on a new university (in germany we have practical universities with less theory and normal university so my new uni is very hard with some topics) > started a notebook for tracking my appointments and trainings > started gym (5 times a week) and got huge gains > quited nearly gaming and wasting time > got depressed cause the first exam at the new uni was just C- cause i learned so much and i want to start my phd after my master > stopped training cause i lost motivation, 5 times a week was too much to keep me going > stopped the notebook too > wrote another exam this monday, it was better but i think it will be no A > started gaming again and now playing pver 6 hours a day beneath learning for the exams > i pressure myself too much This is my situation and i want to get out of this. I have the goal to get fit, to get good grades and i read so much how to keep motivation yourself but currently it just dont work. Also i sleep long cause im more a night person but everybody advises to get up early. My plan is now to form new habits and just start with 2 habbits like: Learning 2 hours a day, go to the gym 3 times a week and at the other days i go out and play pokemon go so i have some movement. What are your thoughts ... would really appreciate some help

>>15322 fam, you have learnt a great lesson - requiring to much of yourself is the main way to fail if you don't enjoy doing soykaf (not the result of doing soykaf, as the results will change and usually get more boring) you will stop doing if you enjoy pokemon go - great find a way to do weights training so you enjoy it and attempt to never get sore any fuarrrking day, if you get sore you will for sure fail and play vidya, there's nothing wrong with it in moderation dont sacrifice anything for sleep, and dont consider yourself a night person cause it is a pure meme
