Hey Bryan! how are you?!
If you want to succeed then, you have to succeed now. How are your school grades? your relationship with your professors and class peers? are you part of extra-curricular activities and volunteering events? Please, answer to yourself this questions. Get yourself involved, ask for help and, do your best.
About "robotics engineering"... get yourself a work place your. Talk to your professors and school teachers on how to do that. The most you get in touch with the actual work, the more you will be able to see if it fits for you.
Congratulations on taking steps forward to success!

Bryan,
My biggest piece of advice would be to get as much hands-on work in robotics as you can. It's a very broad and open field, but the more work you can do in it to narrow down your interests and focus, the better. You can look for research opportunities, volunteering with FIRST Robotics, and pursue your own projects by tinkering with small introductory platforms like Arduino (microcontroller) or Raspberry Pi (mini computer) to get your hands dirty working and learning through experience.
I would also recommend reaching out to professionals in your areas of interest on LinkedIn. This can be very helpful to gain mentorship and will display an above and beyond interest in the field, which is what a lot of professors and potential employers look favorably on.
Hope this helps!

A great tip to succeed in robotics engineering:
1. Hands on experience through projects (in-course + outside course)
2. Strong fundamentals from exam-based courses
3. Study technologies of the state-of-the art robotics engineering firms
4. Identify focus areas of technologies where you can contribute (e.g., Software (sub-domains as well), Hardware).
5. Connect to individuals in Linked In, who are at different levels !
Repeat 5 to 1 and iterate!
