We’ve got the 6 secrets to keeping it all together this year. And guess what? It’s not as hard as you think.
Every grade’s got one: the Totally Together Girl (or TTG for short). She’s straight-A smart, class president and even volunteers at an animal shelter. She’s inspiring...but also intimidating. (Is she even real?!) Luckily for you, we’re spilling the secrets of the Totally Together Girls.
TTG SECRET #1
SHE DOES AWAY WITH DISTRACTIONS
You’d *so* study for your trig test, but Fuller House just dropped on Netflix and your pedi is in desperate need of a topcoat. What’s a girl to do? Well, TTGs focus on the important stuff first—like schoolwork, natch. Save the shows and toes for Saturday and tackle tasks with a definite deadline. If you can’t seem to get organized, set reminders on a Google calendar and highlight ultra busy days in your planner. Prioritizing—not procrastinating—will make your must-do’s more manageable.
