Suggest Remedy For Lack Of Concentration And Day Dreaming

i am 21 yrs old male. i got daydreaming going on in mind uncontrollably all the time. i fantasize various things and get lost in them which is affecting my studies as i fail to pay attention. fantasies and pictures and conversations and thoughts are just going in my mind continuously and i have to order myself "shut up shut up" but they don't. i feel very sad because of my failures despite being intelligent as others say. do i have a problem?
