Tips on how to be responsible

Tips

 * Think of the consequences of irresponsibly. Will you lose your prefect's title? Will you lose a chance of a lifetime? The consequences keep you going on.
 * Make sure you are organized.
 * Speak up when you believe something isn't right or if you think you should say something that might make the situation better.
 * Responsibility isn't a way of saying you can't have fun, it's a way of saying the fun can wait, or it isn't right.
 * If you're out with friends at night, set yourself a specific time to be back.
 * Inactivity leads to irresponsibility. People who are involved in day-to-day activities are more responsible than people who spend the whole day doing nothing productive. Start becoming aware and involved with the happenings in your home or workplace, and then you will automatically be more responsible
 * Get back home a little bit before your curfew.
 * Avoid burnout. If tackling life’s challenges is new to you, you might overdo it, exhaust yourself, and use that as a reason to justify not taking further action. Pace yourself and keep your sights set on the long haul.
 * Avoid being messy and clean up after yourself.
 * Be responsible in school by doing your homework and studying for tests and quizzes.
 * If your goal is to be responsible for school, always complete your homework on time and if possible, complete it earlier than the night it was given. In addition, always go to school early and visit extra help when you need it (teachers will appreciate it).
 * Get a pet. Whether it's a neon tera or a new puppy, pets are always a great way to build responsibility.
 * Don't feel like everything said is an ultimatum.
 * Responsible is not supposed to mean miserable. Work smarter, not harder.
 * If you're trying to build up good habits but are failing, think about why you're failing and find a solution. For example, don't rely on willpower to do everyday things when you know you aren't really motivated to do them, or you set yourself up for failure.
