Post Body

I did all my schooling K-12 here in the USA. I graduated with a 2.8 GPA from high school. In college, I find myself enrolling in English class & I get stuck. When it comes time to sit down & write essays I just find myself losing motivation & not feeling motivated to write.

I have always been told by my peers, family, friends & even various co-workers/bosses that I am smart/wise. Yet, I find myself unable to actually write my essay. I am fine when it comes to other classes. I am able to complete it successfully, yet I find myself just losing interest. How can I overcome this? How can I find what may be stopping me from doing the work? (I am sure I may just be overlooking something).

TIA for any and all advice you may have to give!! =)
