what do i do from know (warning this might be yap)

[sawyerbaal]

i feel like i reached my max potienial (hmtn mabye) def mtn tho, and i feel like having looksmaxxing/bp as a big part of my life is a waste of time and is turning me more into a wierdo irl. (draining my nt) not to mention i go to the prison like school for a few months before returning to my regular school. I cant talk that much and the school is mostly just randoms and ther are other 20 super strict rules.

I was basiclly forced to quit my sport and i dont really find any video games fun so i feel like i have no hobbies.

i have been going to the gym for a few weeks tho but its kinda hard being skinny and doing this ( 140lbs 5'10) and im 15

idk i just feel kinda lost any advice (pls no trolling)

Lowkey, I don’t think you’ve actually hit your full potential yet. You're not even over 18, you haven’t pushed your body to any real extremes, no dangerous (and illegal) steroid stacks or risky cosmetic surgeries. And that’s not a bad thing. What I think happened is that you hit a point where you’re proud of your looksmaxxing progress and feel like you’ve reached the end of that path, or at least hit a plateau, one you can't overcome for the time being. But now that that chapter feels “done” you’re left with this weird empty space. That’s exactly the moment where you start filling it.

Now’s the perfect time to start pouring that same energy into developing meaningful skills and real social connections. When I hear stuff like “I can’t talk much,” “this is making me a weirdo,” or “my school is just randoms” it sounds like you're ready for the next stage: socialmaxxing and skillmaxxing. Looks were just the beginning, now you actually need to do something with them.

I was basiclly forced to quit my sport and i dont really find any video games fun so i feel like i have no hobbies.

Why the hell did you quit your sport? If there’s no real reason, then honestly, just go back to it. Sometimes the simplest answer is the right one. But beyond that, it’s time you start actually talking to people. Because from where I’m standing, it looks like you seriously need good friends. Not superficial buddies, real and deep ones. At school, outside, wherever you can. Real connections. I’ve used some specific methods to build meaningful friendships and become (at least I think) a genuinely likeable person, I can share them if you're interested.

And for a bit of perspective: I’m already in university, a place you'll probably be soon, so let me tell you something important not just about uni, but life in general. Your value in the real world is based almost entirely on how useful you are, which means how many skills you know, and how good you are at them.

If you’ve got nothing to do right now, that’s a huge opportunity. Start building a skill. Why?

• Skills = money.
• Skills = something worth caring about.

If you aren't sure what to pick, that's cool, most people your age don’t know what career they want. Just pick something that looks interesting and is accessible. Or, if you’re really lost, focus on things that are guaranteed to pay off:

• Rhetoric
• Communication
• Sales
• Marketing
• Coding

EVEN IF I HAD TO KILL SOMEONE FOR IT, I would go back in time and I’d force myself to get serious about those five. Anyone who starts developing them at 15 and sticks with it will be unstoppable by 30. How to start though? YouTube. Coursera. EdX. MIT OpenCourseWare. It’s all free. No excuses.

But maybe none of that interests you right now. Maybe you don’t care about your future, like many of us didn’t when we were younger (and then regretted it hard when we realized we were adults). In that case, at least find something you think is fun, or something that makes you sweat a bit. Go back to your sport, or try something new. No sport? No skill? Then join a club. Chess, martial arts, whatever.

Just do anything. If you don’t have a hobby, start one. It really is that simple, not easy, but simple. The moment you start, life starts moving again. Maybe it won’t be the perfect fit, maybe you’ll switch a dozen times, but that’s the process. And somewhere along the way, you’ll find the thing that sticks.

This is exactly why I said I don’t think you’ve fully reached your potential yet. At 140 lbs and 5'10", you’re still on the skinny side but I’m glad to hear you’re hitting the gym now. Just to make sure it’s said clearly: you need to be in a calorie surplus and follow a solid training routine if you actually want to see results, if you aren't following someone else's routine, like one made by an experienced trainer, just make sure to double-check yours is good (no disrespect, but routines made by beginners on their own are usually pretty shitty).

It’s completely normal to feel lost after you’ve been obsessed with something for so long and neglected other parts of your life. When it ends, it leaves this weird void and maybe even depresses you a little (I've been there too). But that’s all it is: a void in your attention. And the only way to fill it is to redirect that energy into something new.

You're a kid. Being aimless is literally part of the job. This is the stage of life where you're supposed to explore, try stuff, mess up, and figure yourself out. Don’t worrya bout feeling lost until you're at least 21.

If you want something actionable: go outside every week on Saturday and go somewhere new. Visit a new place in your neighborhood or city, even somewhere small you’ve always ignored. Talk to a stranger about anything, even if it feels awkward. Take a few bucks, hop on a random bus, and just see where it takes you (actually have done that, had to call my parents afterward because I was lost and scared shitless, loved it, would do it again)

You feel like this because you're bored and aren't experiencing enough. When you start doing random, spontaneous things, life actually starts to feel fun again. It legit feels like a cartoon. When you build skills constantly, try to improve yourself and secure a future, meet new people constantly and grow good connections with people around you, life is joyful.

If you're interested in socializing, I would certainly advise you read this and apply some of it. Regarding hobbies, of course what I mentioned but those are more like "foundational" soft skills, meaning you know those, and you're guaranteed success in any field. They'll make you money in the long run. But do you wanna make money NOW? At your age, and assuming you don't wanna do anything illegal, coding is probably your best bet or art if you're any good. A lot of people pay good money for commissions for simple software or digital art.

If you're looking for precise recommendations on any of these, then here you go. A lot more resources you can find online, I'd recommend to go through MIT OpenCourseWare, EdX, Coursera, or Google Certificates and see if you find any interesting course outside of these, but the point is that you STICK TO IT.

• Rhetoric: This, this and this
• Communication: Highly dependant, read the post I cited above if you want to learn more
• Sales: Alex Harmonzi and Marcus Chan (I had a very brief selling job, informative)
• Marketing: You on your own ngl
• Coding: I'm not even gonna put the link HARVARD CS50 AND MIT OPENCOURSEWARE INTRODUCTORY AND FOLLOW-UP CLASSES. 100% free college classes, will teach you coding like nothing ever could, I'm glad I took those before even majoring in CS because classes are a breeze
• Financial Literacy: This

I mean really, most of these skills even carry on to your life now, not only in the future, communication is something you'll need FOREVER and the faster you master it the faster life will get easy, believe it or not rhetoric and sales are also kinda applicable in your day-to-day but in very soft ways, convincing your parents of buying something or winning an argument without making it worse, etc.
