How to be more organized as a teen?

im 22

dont know if thats too old to give advice

i wouldnt say i was particularly messy in my teens

my biggest regret would be :

choosing a non-traditional career but not starting early

i dont regret not choosing an academic career despite being good in academics, but for any non-traditional career its VERY important to start creating a body of work and working for cheap/free to build experience in your teens so you have enough creds to get hired somewhere good when you hit your 20s

otherwise, its best to not give up on your academics until you are good enough to turn your passion into money

other small tips would be : start learning to date/socialize if you are an introvert

do NOT think about being lifelong friends with your best friends in school

people change and its VERY likely one of you will grow up into a good person

dont leave projects for last minute i guess?

learn to clean cook and manage money

etc

Im 21 and still messy

I'm one year older than you so I don't know I'm too young to offer advice but I'll try my best

I've been a neat person my whole life but that was not the same last year when I was always in bad mood, had a messy room, stayed up until 2-3am every night, and was always late to everything. I think that was a reflection of my overall state. But I think I was able to train myself to think differently, which is my best advice. When I'm having a good day, I'm motivated to clean my room, get everything done ahead of time, and end up feeling good about myself. I still stuggle with procrastination, but I am trying to train my mind to think differently. When I'm thinking "I'll get this done later" I tell myself "I'll feel so much better if I get this done sooner" and I don't end up pulling an all nighter. I don't know if procrastination is an issue for you but it can really hinder your progress if you're trying to make a routine.

“If you’re on time, you’re late” that’s how I was raised, and I still stick to it. It’s better to be 10 minutes early than a couple minutes late.

I’m 23 and that’s really all the advice I can give lol. I think the other two will eventually come with age

Figure out how long it takes you to get ready and how long it takes you to get wherever you need to be ahead of time, so you're less likely to be late

If your room feels like it's messy because of too much stuff, declutter stuff you don't need or want. If there's not that much, then try setting a timer and do 5 or 10minutes of tidying every evening (or whatever time you choose)

Making routines is a very broad subject. If you're talking about daily tasks, maybe choose one task to implement every day for a month by pairing it with something you already do. And then add one new task the next month.

You can also find Youtube videos and podcasts about a lot of these topics.

nope I was a goody two shoes

as a teen what has helped me to be more organize is having a schedule, from that schedule I develop a daily routine. Another thing is mixing unpleasant task with pleasant things.
