18 things I& #39;d tell my 18-year-old self:
1. University is NOT the way for you. You gotta WORK.
Do a year of uni though, just to meet people and learn about all different parts of the social world. Your real education will happen at parties and at meals, not in the classroom.

2. The grind never ends.
There will be no day in the future where you can just relax and coast on your past achievements.
If/when you do that, your life will end up falling apart.
Always be improving yourself in every domain. You& #39;re always either growing or decaying.

3. Girls are INCAPABLE of being your bros.
Only get close to a girl for business or for pleasure.
Sure, you can have girls in your social circle, but they cannot forge you into a better man like your guy friends can.
Only weak men prioritize female friends above male ones.

4. You will get the girls you deserve.
If you want to quit dating insecure, neurotic girls and date truly amazing ones, stop being so insecure and neurotic yourself. Git gud at life. Handle yourself.
Be a better man, and better women will naturally, mutually be drawn to you.

5. Don& #39;t take girls seriously. They& #39;re not like guys.
Like I said, they& #39;re incapable of being your bros.
Their word is not their bond.
They thrive in comfort, not adversity.
They& #39;re meant to be loved, not understood.
Their purpose in this world is not like men& #39;s.

6. Your mental health issues are bullshit.
Depression? Anxiety?
Funny how those go away when you get your testosterone up, do hard things, create your world, and associate with growing, purposeful people.
Stop using your neuroses to justify your existence.

7. Pleasure is not happiness.
Drunkenness and casual sex may feel pleasant, but they decay you and drain you.
Happiness comes from doing hard things and being purposeful in the world. Get that part of your life in check, and everything else will naturally align.

8. If you feel worse after spending time with someone, that person is not for you.
Your gut feeling doesn& #39;t lie.
Spend time only with people who make you better. Your drinking buddies aren& #39;t that. The drama queens aren& #39;t that. The people you don& #39;t vibe with aren& #39;t that.

9. Your energy is off, not your looks.
You assume people don& #39;t like you because you don& #39;t look a certain way.
WRONG.
It& #39;s because you don& #39;t feel a certain way. Your world doesn& #39;t give them that feeling of awe or majesty.
Cultivate your energy, and that& #39;ll attract people.

10. Do more than lifting to boost your testosterone
Real olive oil, turmeric, fish oil, brazil nuts, nofap, and clean eating will do very good things to your hormones.
Your workouts are fine, but optimizing your diet will be a game-changer for your gains and attractiveness.

11. Escapism is for losers
Never watch porn, never masturbate to sexual fantasies, don& #39;t binge Youtube at 1 AM, and don& #39;t black out on alcohol.
Take your energy away from escapes, and put it into real-world creation. THIS will bring happiness and purpose, not simply pleasure.

12. The pursuit of sex shouldn& #39;t be the center of your life
Union is women& #39;s life purpose. Conquest is men& #39;s.
Chase conquest in fitness, business, and spirit, and the right girls for you will see you and want you.
Don& #39;t waste time with mediocre thots. You can get better.

13. Choose behaviors that bring pride to your name.
No one remembers your clothes, your hair, or your words as much as your BEHAVIOR.
This will always be the main thing that defines you.
Seek respect, not attention. Attention is brief. Respect (or lack of it) lasts forever.

14. Get on Twitter and follow all the conservative self-improvement gurus.
These people will show you what& #39;s possible for you.
You don& #39;t have to settle for being an aimless degenerate and wondering why you& #39;re so miserable.
Get some proper guidance from proper people.

15. You will regret what you haven& #39;t done more than what you have done.
The girls who reject you won& #39;t haunt you. The ones you pussy out of making a move on will.
The adventures you have, even the shittier ones, will at least teach you things.
ACTION >>> INACTION

16. No one can create your world but you.
Stop waiting for the days when you finally have the right friends or the right girl to justify your existence.
First, you justify your own existence, then the right people will naturally come to you.
Be a man. Be strong and sovereign.
