If you really do not know how to manage your every day life, read 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens by Sean Covey. This book has tips, advice, and habits to live by to manage your life effectively
Out of all the habits discussed in the Covey's book, I liked habit 4. habit 4 was think win-win. This section of the book discussed how to think of situations in your life as win-win situations as opposed to win-lose and lose-win situations. This habit was the easiest to connect with, for me, beauase habit 4 seemed to be the easiest to accomplish.
The habit I have mastered is habit 3. This section describes how to put first things first to make you more succesful. I believe I have mastered the habit because I always prioritize things and put the most important things first. I find that this strategy helps me finish homework and have as much free time as possible.
Habit 5 or seek first to understand, then to be understood is the habit I need the most work on. I have a real problem understanding other people's points of view. I always want everybody to understand my point of view, while I pay little attention to the other person's point of view. I hope after reading this book that I can drastically improve on this habit.
As I stated before, I would recommend this book to anyone who has a serious problem managing their life.
