How can I better incorporate baking into my daily life?

I'm someone who likes to cook a lot (most of it stems from the fact to eat what you cooked afterwards). But there is one thing in the kitchen that I'm rather hesitant to do: baking.

While I do like to eat cakes, sweets and other stuff you can bake, I don't like the mess that comes with handling flour and sugar. I also dislike the fact that you have to wait from twenty minutes to up to literally hours to enjoy the end result. These facts lead to me being mostly abstinent from baking (maybe once every two months), however I would really like to incorporate more baking in my daily life as the end results are so delicious everytime.

Do you have tips on how I can incorporate baking better in my daily "kitchen life" (for example reducing preparatory time or splitting preparation steps across several days)? Ideally, I would like to bake once every two weeks.
