how to start liking economics again?

hi, i’m an undergrad majoring in economics and lately i’ve been feeling really unmotivated by it. my intermediate microeconomics exam went badly, and maths didn’t go great either. i know part of it is that i should’ve studied earlier, but even when i do study, i don’t really enjoy what i’m learning. it feels like there’s a lot of rote learning and less actual understanding.

i’m already halfway through the degree, so dropping out isn’t really an option. i’ll have to finish it somehow, but right now i’m struggling to even like the subject. has anyone here gone through something similar? any advice on how to reconnect with economics or make peace with it enough to get through the rest of the degree?
