New Jersey is not a good place to be. I am surrounded by liberals, leftists and communists. I am locked down and have nothing to do, and virtual school is just a killer. I have no motivation to do any assignments. I am failing and behind in many of my classes. My family all voted Biden. I see our society decaying to the point of no return. They cheated Trump out of being president. Our government is corrupt. I can't think of many positives going on right now and its really affecting me. I don't know how a lot of you stay high energy. If any of you can help me out, a morale boost or something, I would really appreciate it.

12 Rules for Life is a great start. It'll put your head in the right place, and get you to focus on what you can control.
Start your day with 10 push ups. Get 10 in on lunch. Get 10 more in after dinner. Add 1 more everyday. Its amazing what a difference what a little workout will do to reset your mind.
Get in touch with family/friends as you think of them. There is a reason you thought of them. Don't talk politics, just say hi. Tell them to have a great day.
Wish well on others every chance you get. Tell your lib parents that you love them, and you hope they have a great day.
Look into churches in your area. Even virtual services will help ground you. Once activities start again, go meet people from there! Most people your age at church are excited for life, and that will rub off on you!
Make your life your own. Don't become discouraged because things aren't going your way currently. They will. Believe that they will, and work everyday to make your own success.
Most of all, keep a positive outlook on life. Forget the bad stuff going on in our government. Look for every silver lining. There is always something positive to find, even if you have to search for it.
