How to not waste my teenage years

Stop what you're doing, and go read "Efficiency" by Wall Street Playboys. It's the book you're looking for.

Jesus christ man.

Get up tomorrow, or whenever you read this, and go for a run. For no physical benefit, just to run away from the stupid shit you're thinking.

You're 17, a fucking kid. Yet you sound like a 45 year old incel in the making.

Your education and achievements are good, keep on at it, you'll go far. Seriously, in that sense you have the right mindset.

But stop using terms like "females" and "semen retention" - on that point, the whole "no fap" thing is pseudo-science bullshit and you're doing yourself potential damage. Most of all, recognise that "red pill" is a cringy term coined by losers, but that some of the stuff you'll read in the sidebar is just good basic advice. Learning to separate that from the creep/wierdo/incel/loser crap is the important part. It is totally down to you though.

This sub is often good because it's basically "anti red-pill" in that it is an antidote to the incel "red pill" subs that got banned. We're here to say "some of the philosophy stacks up, but don't think you can use some catchy term from a shit film and make massive changes like a quick guide" - it's all on you. Do NOT fall into internet traps.

I’m feeling like this too, and I’m in the exact situation you’re in. I was behind on my credits, but now I’m en route to graduate, making a steady amount of money, and have a few ideas and applications out for post-sec, but have no idea how to implement my future aspirations. I’m starting to read more on seduction and working out at my home gym a lot more too, but a part of me is saying it’s not enough. Should I be doing something more? Lemme know guys thanks

Hey

It seems like we're currently at similar points in life. I'm currently studying mathematics with finance in university, I'm sitting at 75% (a first class honours in the UK) overall for my grades.

Here is my advice.

Do some form of exercise. It will boost your overall well-being so much.

Take nootropic supplements. I'm currently taking Bacopa Monnieri, a super mushroom complex, and Vitamin D.

Make sure you're studying.

Make friends in your classes. They're invaluable assets, I'd honestly be doing much worse in University is it wasn't for my friends helping me with my studies and mental health.

Apply for whatever internships you find interesting. I did a paid internship at an insurance firm just before I started uni which led to me gaining a small professional network and valuable skills.

You seem to think that you can purely focus on building yourself up now to be 'done' and able to slay when you're 20. That's a video game fantasy.
You don't want a formulaic approach to life, that's a fragile approach that requires you to predict unpredictable things.
Instead embrace trail and error and making small steps every day. The most import things is to not repeat the same mistakes year after year.
Also take advantage of being 17, you have resources you'll never have again. In the gym you're on natural steroids.
Make sure to have fun and socialize. Sacrificing your social life for the 'grind' is for professional athletes.

and want to live a very productive life in the future where I don’t have the same everyday struggles as the majority

You're about 40 years to late for that sort of life - and you would need to come from a very wealthy family.

You can probably skip university too, get a shitty job to pay the bills, up your development skills.

From where I am in the industry, do a lot of interviews and I hire people, pretty much see a degree in computer science as a negative.

Social skills are underrated. You can spend your teenage years grinding away only to get passed up for a frat boy with connections. I suggest trying to socialize as much as possible with other guys and girls and maybe join a frat in college while still grinding and not ODing or getting drunk every day. By all means continue what you're doing but you still should try to have fun and live your best life while you're still young or youll regret it when you're older.
