What should I be focusing on in high school during the whole four years?
Honestly, if I could go back and do it all over… I would focus on building routines and learning myself.
Pay attention to the things you do and don’t like.
Build study routines for college.
Build workout routines so you can stay in shape in college.
(Having no routines really messed me up my first year of undergrad) 🥴
Read lots of books, join lots of clubs… find your interests.
If you have a dream college, figure out their requirements to make sure you stay on track.
If you have a dream career, start volunteering NOW (even if it’s a hour a week at a law firm or something). A lot of people don’t talk about this part but start volunteering, it will help A LOT when you graduate college and get your first job.
Create a LinkedIn profile and put your volunteer work and high school clubs on there.
Avoid boys… I don’t know ONE relationship from my high school that lasted. Don’t give your youth to anyone who doesn’t deserve it.
Most importantly, learn to not care about the opinions of others. I know high school can be mentally challenging but I promise that none of it matters. Just focus on your self! 💖
Have fun, you only get to do it once! ✨
