This is powerful question. It is the right question to ask that many people never consider. It only comes after you have done some reflection.
Just asking this question shows some wisdom. You are on the right track.
Change of environment can be many things. It can be as simple as making your bed and keeping a clean home. Or working at a desk in a home office instead of at your dinner table. It can mean joining a gym instead of working out at home. Going to Starbucks or a library to study instead of doing it at home or the dorm room.
It could simply be changing the music you listen to, changing the background noise. Or change the time of day you work. Try working at 10 AM instead of 9 PM for example. Get better lighting.
But it can also be getting new roommates or moving from Chicago to Phoenix.
A good place to start is to remove distractions and work in a clean well lit space (no access to TV, no phone, no other people). Experiment with the variables and then as you learn what environment is most productive for you, you can make better decisions about roommates and location.
You don't have to change where you sleep to change your environment.
Try breaking your routine a little bit. Instead of going home after work (or class) go straight to a library (or gym, or Starbucks, etc.).
