THE ORGANISED TEENAGER: How to build strong habits that reduce overwhelm, stress and procrastination at home, school and in life. (Neurodivergent friendly font and spacing)
By Claire Eaton B.A., B.Ed.
THE ORGANISED TEENAGER is the book every teenager needs, because no teenager ever said “I REGRET BEING ORGANISED!”
Every day teenagers are faced with the tricky juggle of high school, home, sport and friends, along with a part-time job and day-to-day life activities, which all demand that teens have organising skills and habits that are easy to use, and part of their success tool kit. But these executive function skills need to be taught, they don’t magically appear, and that’s where THE ORGANISED TEENAGER comes in to save the day.
Too many teenagers are crumbling under the weight of unplanned disorganisation, and are feeling the negative impact on their mental and emotional wellbeing. Quite by accident, teenagers are finding themselves spending too much time procrastinating and in turn feeling overwhelmed and stressed, which without question puts pressure on the entire family. No parent wants their teenager or family to feel this way.
Claire’s 30+ years teaching and coaching young people, has highlighted how good quality organising habits, when used often and consistently, can change a teenager’s life in the most profound ways, which is why Claire has written this go-to book especially for teenagers.

OTHER AWESOME SIDE EFFECTS MAY INCLUDE:
• Louder laughter, increased independence (less parent nagging), more fun with friends, extra free time and being in a better mood. Getting a good night’s sleep, more training and playing time with the team, boosted energy levels and happier thoughts in the morning before the new day ahead• Having a better attitude to everything in life, sharper concentration when it matters most, more patience, increased productivity, and much more confidence, because teenagers have more time to think this:
