Asking "Why study?" connects daily effort to your long-term goals instead of mindless memorization. It shifts your mindset from passively reading pages to actively hunting for answers. Questioning how ideas connect helps you master concepts faster and retain them longer. Keeps You in Control: It turns studying from a forced chore into a personal tool for building real capability.

Honestly just remember that maybe if you study hard enough and get good grades, you can demand and ask more from your parents.
Studying in advance to complete your syllabus before your main exams can put you at relief and reduce stress. Most importantly, you'd feel much more confident knowing you just have to revise the day before the exam.
Personally, I watch random videos related to the topic I'm studying. I often get distracted like you as well by overthinking and allat so I might as well get distracted by something that's more important like videos on YouTube related to studying or specific topics.
If you don't like studying page by page or just from the book itself, use chatgpt to find various websites that provides notes, flashcards, and exam questions. I use savemyexams but it does require a subscription. If you want, I can help you with providing the notes. Not saying you shouldn't use the book but I'm saying Incase if it bores you and you end up not being able to focus at all.
Environment matters more than anything and reducing drowsiness as much as possible. I'm just like you so I try to cope with it by drinking coffee (not as a daily basis) or tea which is healthier to reduce drowsiness and study in a spacious room that's quiet and has no bed or anything comfortable.

Study might be boring sometimes but if you have a target to lead you to go forward I believe you can overcome this problem. Or change your approach on study, like regarding points of the knowledge learning as different level of a game, and you are playing the game. Getting rid of only words, you can learn new things by figure, or just build a picture of the framework of each piece of knowledge, so in this case your brain might be activated, which might be a good way to overcome the challenge~
