Just ten minutes a day on whatever your dream is. Do it everyday. Start good habits now. Stop procrastinating and make yourself do the hard work now and later everything will come much easier. Enjoy all the small things. Remember bad luck does end but it's a cycle good luck ends too, both come back. Have a plan for emergencies. If you find a good partner charish the good and bad times.

I find it’s worse if I leave it until morning since it I have it overnight I have that sort of security

Avoid credit cards as much as humanly possible. If you must or just to build credit, ONLY spend as much as you have in cash or can comfortably pay back within 3 months (on time payments). The "correct" way to use credit is a little more involved than I care to write but this is the basics.

That’s a good way of thinking of it

Stay tf away from booze and drugs, and don't get arrested. Other than that, do what will bring you happiness. Don't take advice from idiots and don't listen to criticism from anyone you wouldn't take advice from. The answer to most of your worries is actually "Not my fucking problem."

Avoid weed and heavy drinking, especially weed - it will get you lazy and can/will hurt your brain development and generally will distant you from society, also avoid cigarets.

Well, taking advice from random strangers online rather than following your instincts and parental upbringing comes immediately to mind as a "don't do". Seriously, think for yourself, don't follow the herd, use your brain...

16!? Stick your dick in crazy all you want. Just wrap it up. Nows the time.

Actually you can stick your dick in crazy, just never at your house so if they go crazy you can run.
Sky dive, bungee jump, maybe one of those Nascar ride alongside, see if you csn take an introductory flying lesson.

And then you get to rummage through it all in the morning because you are freaked out you forgot x, y, and z, even though you have a list your checked off. Just me?

I also suggest having an emergency outfit prepared and set aside in the closet. I am not a morning person and can't pivot easily if I have a spill and need to change.

I started implementing this by emptying my pockets into a basket by the door. Everything I need is in the basket then. It’s a bit of a learning curve because one day I got distracted and only left one or two things in it and I left the next day without a wallet or sunglasses.

I heard that works for some, but on average it’s less likely that the person will do a good job

Exactly, and it helps with overthinking because everything is packed when you’re calm

Pay attention to the road when driving and don’t expect everyone else to be doing the same.
