Exercise, eat well, meet people and take time to get to know them as individuals, spend time with the good ones, participate in community, date more (but don't be a doormat and don't be co-dependent)... hold down a steady job/school... spend time outdoors, meditate on occasion.
Be kind to everyone, especially when it's the hardest. It's good for them and good for you. Don't let anger or envy rule your emotions.
If I had choose just 2-3 things to focus on, it would be exercising, eating well, and participating in community, and the rest just tend to sort themselves out. You're 18, you don't have to have your whole life figured out already, just set a good foundation for it.
Health is the basis of everything else, and exercise is a huge component of both mental, physical, and emotional health. Most things in life you can fix later on, and most mistakes you can undo (obviously don't be a criminal or become an addict), but health is the one thing that is really hard to "fix" later on if you don't start & maintain it early enough.
