How will I be able to keep my time managed so I can be able to be more equipped to become a lawyer?

I'm an 8th grader and I'm 13 years old. My favorite class in school is English. I have skills in writing and time management. One of my hobbies is art, such as drawing.

Thank you comment icon Hi Kaylie: I agree with Dennis Breen's answer. It's great to contemplate what you want to be when you're young, but focus your efforts on enjoying the present -- your friends, sports or other extracurricular activities, and all the benefits of not having to "adult". If you're asking this question at your age, I suspect that you're already diligent and willing to work hard. Those are great assets if you do decide to become a lawyer. But keep your mind open; you never know what other interests or opportunities present themselves to you. Andrea Hewitt

Kieran’s Answer

Time management is very important, especially as a lawyer. It is easy to become overwhelmed when you are working on multiple cases at once. Being organized well help you manage your time and you can find different tools/ways to help. Keeping a to-do list and setting aside times on a calendar for certain tasks (and prioritizing deadlines) are examples on how to manage your time. If you're working in a firm, you'll also likely have some support staff to help you.

DENNIS’s Answer

Kaylie: At this point I'd suggest you waste as much time as you can! Go out and enjoy life - you're a kid. Being old and responsible comes soon enough. Go out and play and have fun. Time management is important but youth is more important. The gifts of youth will last forever.
