If you're young (like in high school), take advantage of your summers and don't waste them

You're never going to get another period in your life where you can sleep 10 hours a day and have so much energy and boundless free time to actually work on something. Try to set out a schedule and really try to work on 2 or 3 big goals.

Here's what I'd say are the most important goals you could learn and will put you head and shoulders above other people:

  1. Getting better at programming/build your own projects
  2. Getting jacked/ripped
  3. Take classes at a local college that transfer to the college you plan on going to (this will save you a lot of time, stress, and money later on)
  4. If your parents don't give you money, then work part-time somewhere. Try to find something where you can get good tips if doing a service job. A sales job could help you develop social skills, but if it's commission based — you may get little (or maybe relatively a lot) in return. If you can network well (and get somebody's dad to get you a job) or are particularly skilled, you may be able to snag a freshman year internship somewhere which would make your resume stand out a lot when you're in college.
  5. Expand your social network
  6. Learn how money works (e.g. inflation, interest rates, time value of money, personal finance, basic economics)
  7. Find whatever your greatest weakness is in your life and work on that (very rare a high schooler would have that level of introspection though)
  8. If you're under 18 that's the best time to start lifting regularly and getting your nutrition handled. Sleep + naturally high testosterone = great gains if you're consistent.

i slept 12 hours everyday 19-21 because of lockdown. I grew 2 inches from 6 to 6'2. Would have actually preferred 6 since I live in India and girls are literally 4'11 more often than not

if you're under 18, and you already think about life in terms of -maxxing, then it's over for you

under 18 are the most important and developmental years of your life, 4 years of your life basically determine how you will live the rest of your life, makes the most sense to max everything out before its too late

high schoolers who have that level of introspection are likely to be in the incel zone

Summers are shit when you don't have many friends.

stay home and rot as your mental health & social skills deteriorate

I fucking despise going on break for this exact reason. Not close enough with any friends for them to invite me to anything and the girl I wanted to hang out with friend zoned me. Currently stuck just rotting at home.

hits too close to home :feelswah::feelswah: I had a few friends that I would see but it was usually when I messaged them first to hang out. or I have one gigaNT friend who would always invite me out but I felt a lot more like I was tagging along with the rest of the group

whereas at school I could kind of socialise, and if the conversation got awkward, just go and do something else like carry on with work or go and talk to someone

Do girls in india reject boys for being too tall or smth?
yea i overheard a girl in bus say she hates her uni because most boys are tall and look like oxen. Ideal I think is 6, not lanky but perfectly tall
 
OP is a cuck, the summers should be to slay hard and go out with friends, you do all that during the school year, since nothing you will learn in school is really of any use, except math.
