what are different ways to develop life skills?

Each person will have a different learning approach to developing life skills. A good starting point is to relate the skill you're trying to develop to something you enjoy. For example, if you're having trouble keeping up then you may want to work on your time management skills - which are a huge plus wherever you go. To do so, try scheduling/blocking things you enjoy and hold yourself to the schedule.

If it comes to staying awake, be active when you're doing things that bore you (assuming you are able to).

The best way to develop skills is to learn them in the process of doing something you like, whether that's a job you enjoy, or perhaps through a sport you are passionate about.

Don't be afraid to try new experiences/things/clubs as these will help you develop skills that you can use in your everyday life.

The best way to develop life skills is to try to find opportunities to interact with as many people as possible in different lines of work and with different backgrounds. The best advice I can give you is to be open minded to everyone's background and experiences and appreciate the differences. In the conversations, you might find activities and work that will bring you happiness and success. I'd also recommend reading newspapers, books or anything that interests you.

One good way to do this is to start at something you either like or have realised you can do somewhat well. Work at it until it feels second nature. When you get there, ensure you make a lateral move or a move into something else up if available. Keep acquiring different skills. Do not focus on titles or money (unless of course you have the need). Acquiring different skills and making lateral moves will ensure you develop life skills but ALSO transferrable skills which will ensure you can just about always be employed and add value to a wide different range of organisations. Always ask yourself what the next thing to learn for you is/should be

Hi! It is definitely difficult to develop life skills. I know I struggled with this a lot growing up. I couldn't budget, had different cleaning habits than my roommates, was just a mess! Through trial and error I feel as though I have definitely accommodated to being an adult and using life skills to support me. I think the first step is thinking about it, so good job- you are already on your way. Life skills can be categorized in so many ways, but basically it is ways to deal with everyday life. If you have a supportive adult (30 years old and above ), they can be a great resource. There are also a lot of resources on the internet about budgeting, cleaning , and social life skills. I would recommend doing a lot of pre-planning and thinking about what areas of life skills you are interested in learning and breaking down the categories into smaller steps, so you can have a better grasp on what you want to learn.

A great way to develop life skills is by getting involved/volunteering in your community. I would also recommend joining groups that allow you to work with others on a hobby or activity that you are interested in. Based on my experience, the more you can interact with like-minded individuals and throw yourself into situations that might, at first be uncomfortable, the more you learn!
