1. Set a consistent daily routine

A flexible routine is the master key to a smooth flowing lifestyle.

2. Find a drink or a snack that never fails

Bonus points if it's from Starbucks and caffeinated.

3. Always budget and prioritize needs over treats

Remember to pay those pesky yet essential monthly bills (e.g. phone, rent, utilities, food) before you treat yo' self!

4. Explore familiarities

You just never know what opportunities are in store (literally and figuratively).

5. Find a place that helps you clear your mind

Whether it be somewhere high in nature, a dark room, or a store, there is always somewhere for everybody to unwind.

6. Listen to the radio and find a playlist or genre of music

Listen to certain radio stations, perhaps download Shazam (which is a life saver for when a nifty song comes on and you just have to find the name), and find that genre that fits with any mood

7. Take advantage of good weather

Have your happiness and enjoy it too. Having time in the sun not only leads to feeling more awake and happy, it also provides life saving benefits such as Vitamin D and a balance between melatonin and seratonin (which regulate sleeping patterns).

8. Prioritize responsibilities based on due dates and work shifts

When in doubt, pay attention to the current day of the week, the responsibility at hand, and when it needs to be completed. Then find a way to complete what is due soonest or what will take the most time and be most important in the future.

9. Find a social group with personable people

There are plenty of people out there to get along with; it's all about finding what really satisfies you and knowing what makes you who you are.

10. Try to discover a random hobby

Just another reason to branch out and try new things whenever life becomes too much.

11. Take weekend or day trips

Venture out to that big city whenever you have a free weekend. Although it is not something that can be done every weekend, the weekend is the best time to check it out.

12. Volunteer to help others

Whether it be something such as community service, helping the poor, or looking after dogs or kids, volunteerism is a free way to help yourself and others.

13. Discover something productive to research

Researching, reading, and learning about any miscellaneous subject is not only beneficial for literary skills, but it can also help you discover what exactly makes you happy and can even guide you towards a lucrative career.

14. Figure out your work style

You will be taking a lot of notes, memorizing a lot of things, and using them to live right, but do anything to make them stand out and best suit you. Work becomes easier when you create a positive environment to work through.

15. Take it one day at a time.

Although some planning definitely helps, it is best to first focus on the issues that occur during the current day so that they do not become issues in the long run. Take it one day at a time and remember that no matter what, you can get through it.
