Hey bro...stick in there man....you will feel greatly rewarded when you accomplish what you set out to do.....
Im 21 myself full time student....tore my acl 2 yrs ago and had all ligaments/ some muscles in my shoulder torn(surgery in December) most recently...

competing is a bug man...that you wont easily be rid of....
my injuries have helped me GREATLY when it comes to my grappling and motivation....use it as a drive to push yourself!!!....and at our age....bro this is our only shot.....

this is when you are going to find your character!!....who do you wanna be man???!!........I just know that I would regret it every second if I would have gave up....

and another thing that helps me to keep motivated is to keep reinventing moves that you already know and maybe even stumble on some new inventions for yourself...I keeps you alert...learning......challenging.....and something ever changing.....

Good luck man......I know you have a lot of good people here supporting you...
