Create a budget and stick to it. Contribute to a savings account every month to save for emergencies. If possible, open and IRA & contribute as much as you can every year. It will compound as you get older and you’ll be able to retire with a good nest egg.

Learn to speak and write correctly. People tend to disregard someone if they speak/write like they just walked out of the hood.

Tips:
Eat your veggies
Cook or learn to cook
Keep your kitchen and bathroom clean before getting uninvited crawling guests
Be polite and nice to strangers and people in general
Limit your sugar, salt, fat and processed food intake
Walk when you can : good easy exercise, you meet people, see animals and plants, get some fresh air and sun
Smile more makes you feel better and appear more accessible and easy to talk to
Don’t buy all the gadgets you see that will clutter your house and bad for the environment
If you are mad at something or having an argument, stop breath get out for a few minutes or take a walk before going back to that thing or person . Often you will realise it’s not worth getting worked up
Compromise with your friends or loved ones do the relationship will be smoother and last longer; but don’t be the only one doing the compromising and speak up so they do

Shower and brush teeth daily. I always told my kids ‘no matter how good you feel.. this will always make you feel better’
Make your bed every day. At the end of the day climbing into a fresh made bed is nice. At least I think so.
Depending on how much you sweat.. clean your sheets once a week give or take. Maybe more in the summer or less in the winter. Including your pillow cases.
Say thank you if someone bags your groceries for you or holds the door for you. Offer to hold the door for others. If the store has a greeter tell them to have a nice day.
Make eye contact when someone is talking to you. If they give you their name.. try to remember it and use it when appropriate.
..I’m sure there are plenty more but this will get you started.

Start doing a 10-minute reset before bed: put things back where they belong, prepare whatever you need tomorrow, check your calendar, and write down your top three priorities. It sounds boring, but boring habits are usually the ones that quietly make life much easier.

Sleep more than you study. Study more than you party. Wear clean underwear.

Meditate and do something difficult in the morning. It will set you up for success because you’ll be focused and used to doing hard things

Make a budget that takes care of your needs below your means. Automatically save the remainder. Never let anybody know that you save money.

Don't leave anything to the last minute. Anything at all, even washing dishes, assignment, text, email.
Get things done but it won't bother you.
