Monk Mode?

There's not really a proper way to do it. It depends on what you need. For most people that's going to be transforming your body into something you're proud of. The key is to ignore trying to build social interactions until you are ready to succeed in them. If lifting is on your list, start with that, if you've got $100, spend it on a trainer to get you started teaching you some exercises that work for you and will hit the muscles you need the most work on. Once you get the hang of it and meet other guys at the gym, you'll pick up everything you need to know quickly.

First of all if you're going to do this, you need to set aside a full month to get into your routine. I've found that if I stick to something at the very least 1 month, it becomes part of my life rather than "just another day at the gym/etc."

So look up some routines, look up healthy food recipes. Buy food in bulk and get yourself some tupperware containers to lay out your 2-3 days worth of food in advance. I don't like the way the chicken tastes on the 5th day so I just cook every few days. Get a routine going, something you will stick with and that isn't going to break you in the first month. You don't want to scare yourself away from your goal, ease into it and then fucking beast it once you figure out what you like doing.

Biggest thing is DO NOT focus any of your energy on picking up women. If one is begging to come home with you or an easy lay I am not one to pass that up, but don't shit on your self esteem by constantly trying to game chicks, this is your time to build yourself up not knock it down.

Think about your end goal, how amazing it's going to feel when you stick with your programs and short term goals and destroy them with success. Look in the mirror today, are you happy with your body? Unless you're a body builder or athlete chances are you aren't. This is YOUR time, you are a beta butterfly, spend some time in your cocoon and emerge with some fucking pecs and traps and you wont need the wings. Once you sculpt yourself into the statue of your liking, the confidence will grow and outshine all of your other attributes, you will OOZE confidence.

Anyways is there anywhere that I can find how to properly do Monk mode or anything like that?

Cut out meaningless bullshit in your life and focus almost exclusively on self-improvement. Stop watching TV. Stop using Reddit. Stop watching porn. Stop playing video-games. Read quality books, work out, focus on school. Socialise and increase your social networks, but don't spend any time trying to get laid. If it happens, it happens, but you will not expend any effort or energy trying to make it happen.

The idea is to be productive as fuck and build foundations for good habits.
