What are easier ways of studying if you get easily distracted ?
I have experienced trouble with things such as staying on task, focusing, and remaining in one specific place when studying or doing assignments. No matter how clean a room is or empty I end up focusing on such small detail about the room or just lose focus quickly and want to move or go somewhere else. The only thing that I have found to work is studying in the dark as I can't see distractions around me and as long as there's no noise I'm fine. Though this has lead to my eyes becoming strained and red as I'm trying to see my work in the dark. My mom has suggested doing things such as getting evaluated to see if there are things that can help me but I have been unwilling as I feel as it's just a fact that I can't focus but I don't know what to do.

How do I become a successful person? I am 17 and am not sure on what to do for the future.
I am not sure on what to do. I am 17 years old and in college pursuing business level 3 course. What I want out of life in the future is to be successful but I am not sure how to do that. I asked my parents and they said to own a business, so I went straight into business. But I always wanted to become an actor. It has been my dream job since I was young but now all this business stuff in my life and possibly starting a business soon is making me stop thinking about being an actor or even a singer, which i wanted to try to be. I also have bad mental health so I'm also wondering, what if my business fails? like immediately? my mental health could go way down to the point i wont come back. its not that i dont want to own a business, i do, i like the thought of being an entrepreneur but ughh i dont know. i just want to be successful and i dont know how. anyone got any ideas?

How can I bring the Children and Women home?
Not many people talk about it, but I wanna stop it. Sex trafficking both angers and disgusts me to the core and I'd like to start taking classes so I can find out how to stop it. I'm currently in 10th grade and can take any online classes I want starting next semester. I've already had a semester in Psychology which I've heard helps. But I want to know all courses I can take in high school, then ones I can take in college. Then find the job to help put it to end. I need to do something to help them, but I don't know how.
What should i study (healthcare and maths in one)?
I’m a student about to enter to university. I get good grades, but I’m undecided on what to study in uni. I’m looking for something related to healthcare, best if its with children. My fav subjects are maths and science, i do pretty well with them, except for physics. I want to make enough money to live comfortably and a degree that works worldwide and in demand. Pediatrics is in my mind but I would have to go through the whole process of taking med and then doing internship and specialization, which is not my goal since I prefer not interacting with adults. Ask any other further questions. Thankyou!
Studying Abroad (From US to UK)
I'm currently a junior in high school, and I've recently started looking into colleges out of the US and there's a few that look amazing. I just want to know other peoples' opinions and experience, whether it's a good idea, how hard it is, what I should do in preparation, basic information about the UK education system, scholarships/finances, and really just anything you think is important. I really want to study animal behaviour/ethology and horse training. There are a few colleges in the US (Findlay, Centenary, Lake Erie, Emory & Henry, MSU, ...) but not only are they much more expensive, they also only have equine degrees. I've only recently thought about animal behaviour/ethology, so I haven't been looking into colleges for that in the US. But, in the UK, the first college I looked at (Hartpury) has so many majors that I would love to take (Animal Behaviour and Welfare, Equine Science, Equestrian Sports Coaching, Equine Behaviour and Welfare, ...). It also seems so much cheaper, and I'm kind of interested in living out of the US.
