How to Achieve As a Teen

Phychology of a teenager. Add comments

Start a good relationship with your parents. Good relationships improve trust. If your parents have a good reason to trust you, they will let you do more things with friends. Never lie to them. If you have lied in the past-stop and make a vow not to do it again. Tell them you want to work on having a trusting relationship with them and you will prove it to them.
2
Enjoy a good relationship with your friends. Because your parents will let you spend more time with your friends. You can improve your relationship with them and eventually make more friends, thus improving your social status.
3
Study hard at school. Putting 110% effort at school and getting high grades shows your peers you're hardworking and you are confident as a teen. At this age, most teens slack off and have lower self esteem. Showing your persistence gives you a better image and you will be well respected for that. You will feel good about yourself and start to like the feeling of achievement. Set goals and achieve them.
4
Find a job. This can be any job, at the super markets, gas stations, fast food places, restaurants, department stores, anywhere. Also make sure you would devote your time to be best in performance in your job.
5
Work hard at your job so you can get promotions. Earning money can give you a chance to do things with your friends, such as the movies, without borrowing money from your parents (if you borrow money without repaying, your parents will not trust you so much as before).
6
Appeal to everyone. If someone you know is struggling in school, offer help and become friends with them. Reaching out to others shows you are a helpful person and enjoy helping.
7
Join clubs and sports. Doing extra curricular activities shows dedication and sportsmanship. Keep up with these activities and your schoolwork, however, or it may be too hard to handle.
8
Take honors or AP classes. These classes push your ability and force you to work harder, but benefit you a lot in the long run. However taking too many of these classes can be overwhelming. Only take what you know you can handle.
9
Be happy. Taking all the honors/advanced classes in the world won't matter if you become depressed from all the work. Take time for yourself and spend it on a hobby. Bring in a relationship is also a good way to cheer yourself up. It can be a best friend or a boy/girlfriend. Just make sure the relationship is balanced.
