Would like some advice

For your finances I suggest Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University, then you can retire a Millionaire.

For your health there are a lot of good resources like Dr Jason Fung, Dr Peter Attia, Dr Rhonda Patrick. Looking up their talks and interviews on Youtube is Gold.

For dealing with this world on a daily basis I suggest Jordan Peterson and as much MGTOW content as you can consume until you 100% understand the ways of this world.

For your spiritual side which is the most important (Because we are all going to die) I suggest Reading your Bible, Prayer, and drawing closer to God in that personal Relationship. If you want some pastors I suggest on Youtube they include: Dr Michael Brown (Ask Dr Brown), Mike Winger (A Ordained Prod Priest), The 10 min Bible Hour, Dr Michael S. Heiser (A Spiritual Realm) & John Samuel Barnett (DTBM Discover The Book Ministries). Take all of them with a grain of salt and I am more than happy to answer any questions you would have. But the advice I give everyone is follow no man, study to show yourself approved & workout your own salvation with fear and trembling.

As for the stable father figure problem. I love you (Brotherly Love) and am more than willing to be your friend. So if your looking for occasional advice or friendship I am here for you.

If I could go back to where you are in age, I would first work on becoming strong and at least competent in some form of fighting that has full contact sparring at least. Make sure you learn how to use hand tools and I’m not speaking of sockets and wrenches here but hammers, saws, axes & hatchets and knives. Read and absorb how to build things out of wood, metal or whatever interests you, not just technology. Spend a good amount of time outdoors hiking, camping and exploring. Learn to shoot with a rifle & handgun. Be competent with a bow of some sort. Read historical things like explorations and war in the ancient days. Fill your time and head with these types of things and you’ll have no time to worry about women or depression. If you need to have sex then have sex. Either a female or your hand, whatever. After it’s done you’ll be over that need and realize you don’t need that person hanging out distracting you. Live frugally. There’s no better feeling than putting your head down at night knowing all your bills are paid and you don’t have super debt hanging over your head because of woman spending money and demanding more, bigger, newer, etc. good luck and have fun with your life too. Help others if deserving. Don’t hang with assholes, losers or slackers.

Learn a trade, go to school and get a degree in a STEM field, pursue a hobby you are passionate about and turn it into a career. Focus on your own development into a man. Find others that are just as focused. Build a solid base for yourself to grow. In 20 years you’ll be like me, I own my house and a second property and I have a great job doing something I love. I’ll be set up for retirement in another 10 years and I travel annually.

Focus on your goals. If you have friends that are on the same path that’s great. Sometimes our journey is more like the lone wolf. Be prepared for that as well. It’s important that you like yourself and you can look in the mirror and respect the man you see.

The FIRST thing is to accept and acknowledged that everything you've been told and programmed to "know" by school and society is a LIE. And by everything, I literally mean everything.

At your age the body needs less recovery, so you can work, and learn a trade at the same time. Earn your own way, it's the BEST feeling. Move out. Be your own man. Live beneath your means MOST of the time as a habit. Save money rather than spend it. Make yourself FORMIDABLE physically, and mentally. If possible THINK all choices through to the farthest possible CONCLUSION, then ask yourself if you can live with that outcome. ALL people are flawed, they will fail you, let you down, and even actively seek to benefit from you, or benefit from your harm, so be as SELF reliant as you can. You will FAIL at times, everyone does, take the hit, get up, move forward. Sex is cheap, but can be dangerous. Don't pay full price for a pussy that Chad got for free. Don't pay for another man's fuck trophies. Don't allow yourself to be friend zoned, it will harm your SELF respect. Walk away.

When you're 18 you have more rights. IDK where you live but in lots of countries you're considered self deciding. You could look up your old man and let your mom throw all the tantrums she can. Tip: closing the door and walk away will quickly diminish her noise.

Divide your life into health, finance, emotional segments. What is your ideal scenario in all those aspects. Once you know that then you can start putting together plans to achieve those aspects. Divide the plans into short, 0 - 12 months, medium, 1 - 5 years, and long term, 5 year + goals.

Ensure you write down those plans clearly somewhere and not just have them in your head, gives you something to focus on.

Ron-Don-Volante · 2019-10-26T17:23:54+00:00

invest in yourself in every way. health, education, skills, finance, etc..

you are young so you can take chances, but don't commit to something that will weigh on your future unless you are committed to take ownership in that decision- that future.

you want to figure out what you want to do initially as a career may evolve over the years in to something you may not expect.

You know those thoughts about what you KNOW you should be doing but aren't and they keep nagging you? Address it asap. There are others in queue, but it's a FIFO kind of queue.

inushishi_no_kaze · 2019-10-26T19:04:41+00:00

You should find a goal for your career and stick to it. Ofc it must be a rational choice, baing an artists can be a job but it's unlikely to suceed, still you can keep it as hobby.

Also don't waste your time with people that will pull you down or will make look trivial your achievements. You should find people that cheers you on your success. I say this because i had those type of bad friends belitteling my improvements.

Some good podcasts to listen to are survival podcast and radical personal finance. Survival will give you general knowledge though I do not agree with everything he says

An addition to what everyone else has posted: hit the gym regularly. Bodybuilding.com has fantastic free resources and plenty of free exercise programs to choose from, just find one that jives with you. When you’re fit/muscular overall you garner more respect from the general public. People will assume you are confident, a badass, successful, etc.

Its a hard thing to answer even if you had strong male role models. You're still a very young man and will realize soon that you never finish becoming 'who you are'. You're a series of never ending choices (until it does end) and you're defined more by your past than by your future. We can see your past. We can only see what you 'wish' for the future. So every choice you make, as seemingly insignificant as it may seem, is important. Whether or not you go for the gym whether or not you study for that exam, whether or not you have a nice job or a job you like all comes down to these little decisions you make daily, and the bigger decisions you might seek guidance from a wise mentor over are just the ones that capitalize off of the millions of little choices you made to get there. While it is important to take time to enjoy yourself if you make it to the end of a year and found that all you did was enjoy yourself and no progress with anything else, then you made a series of bad choices, and that is the kind of man you are.

The point I am trying to make is that having some father figure to aspire to be like won't really make you the person you want to be. These big stroke ideas that we chase after are rarely where we end up. We may still end up very successful in other ways we cannot even begin to see from where we are, but it all comes down to making good choices day in and day out. When you reach the end of your day ask your self, did you make any good choices? Did you make bad choices? When you wake up the next morning ask yourself what choices you need to make that day.

They may not actually get you to your end goal, but they will bring you somewhere great if you can do this. Then one day you'll be a bit older and people will have words to describe exactly the kind of man you are.

If you want, when you turn 18, find your father's phone number and ask him if he wants to meetup (without telling your mother).
Men tend to find satisfaction in life when pursuing and then achieving a goal. Think of a goal...
Find something you enjoy and make a goal to get better at it. Repeat.
