How To Focus The Mind From Wandering?

I have trouble focusing and/or thinking clearly. My mind is constantly wandering from topic to topic. Feels as if I have a TV on with multiple channels going at once. I procrastinate in college a lot due to the fact that my mind can t sit still. I have smoked marijuana recreationally and when I am high, I tend to start my day early(around 7am), do my school work(college), and then start on house cleaning.
