Don’t Waste Your 20s (How to Maximize Your Twenties) PART 4

Continued from part 3.

9) Seek to learn from the skilled and competent (even if they are assholes)

The biggest myth that men in their 20s have is about their own self-importance. They think they are equal to kings and emperors in their heads while in reality they are just newbies to the real world.

Your 20s are the one decade in your life where you should have ZERO ego and just focus on learning all the skills you can and become as competent as you can be in all things useful.

Learn from all sources possible:

• Your experiences
• The experiences of your friends
• Old and new books (tons of wisdom hidden in the writings of ancient authors like Plutarch)
• From anyone who is skilled and competent

It is very very very important that you try your best to be around people who are the best. You want to spend time with and around people who are highly skilled and competent regardless of their personality.

There are tons of people who are dumb and low skilled but they are nice and entertaining. You will feel good by spending time with them because it will fuel your superiority complex but I can guarantee one thing… you will learn NOTHING.

Other than the endorphins of feeling better than others, you will get nothing useful from incompetent but nice people.

On the other hand, you might not enjoy being around people who are highly skilled and competent (most are also really nice by the way) because it may remind you of all the things you do not know yet, or you may not like their tone and manner of speaking, but you will learn merely from working with them and being around them.

If you are an intelligent person, being around people with skill and competence will help you learn those skills too.

You will get better and as the years go by, the people who chose to spend their time with dumb nice people will be far below you in every way. You will be too far ahead to be caught.

Do not let your ego get in the way of learning. You are too green to have pride when it comes to learning from people who know what they are doing.

Suck it up and acquire high value skills at all costs. You will not regret it. You will regret wasting your 20s hanging out with incompetent retards.

10) Improve your sexual skills

Being good at fucking women is a highly valuable skill that will significantly improve your quality of life.

Beta males delude themselves into thinking that their career and work will help them attract and retain women but they are just coping with their lack of game skills.

There are lots of things that bring you women (such as being exciting and fun to be around) but being able to fuck them good gets them coming back to you over and over again.

Women are a huge part of a man’s life and if you suck with women, you are doomed to perpetual misery. No amount of career success equals game.

The average rich guy with a fat nagging wife is NOT a happy man by a long shot.

You are wired to want women and your DNA will make you feel lonely and restless to make you seek them, so get good at sex when you are young.

The best way to improve your skills is to get a steady girlfriend for a while and do everything with her. It does not matter if she looks below average or is plumpy.

Just drop your standards for a while and do everything with her. Vanilla sex, anal, public stuff, ropes and handcuffs, and everything your heart desires.

Learn to make her cum multiple times and learn to be dominant in bed. Try all the sex positions with her and get good at fucking.

If you can fuck women good, they will keep coming back to you even if you’re not dating them. There are girls who I dated long ago who still message me when they’re in the city (no I don’t agree to meet them anymore because I am married now).

Being good with women means that at least 35% of life’s headaches are solved for good (other 65% are related to children/family, money, and health).

11) Avoid building up damage to your body

You have one body and it’s gotta last you a lifetime. If you fuck it up in your 20s, you may not notice it now but you will notice it when you are older.

Many back pains, knee pains, joint pains, etc. happen because of the things you do in your youth. The damage keeps accumulating.

1) Ears. Do not use headphones or earphones at loud volumes. The rule is 60% of max volume for at most 60 minutes at a time. If you go to clubs, avoid sitting and dancing near loud speakers.

If you are unable to hear properly after a while of listening to loud music, you have damaged your ears a little. If you keep doing it over and over again, you will get measurable hearing loss.

2) Knees. Wear good quality shoes that provide decent cushioning. You need cushioning because modern surfaces (tile, road, marble, pavement, etc.) are much tougher than the surfaces we evolved our feet for.

Too little exercise is bad for your knees, and too much exercise is bad for your knees. There is a sweet spot and you should stick to it. You don’t want to be running on a hard surface 7 times a week because you will hammer your knees over time especially if you are overweight.

If you have overpronation or flat feet, invest in good quality custom insoles. Your knees will thank you in the long run (easily one of the best purchases I ever made).

The highest ROI thing you can do to protect your knees is to lose weight. Losing 1 kg of fat takes off 4kg of pressure from your knees per step.

3) Avoid motor accidents. First and foremost, avoid driving two wheelers at all costs. One small accident can break your bones, dislocate your joints, and even cost you your life.

Make sure that anything you drive has at least 4 wheels. Buy cars that are rated well for safety and wear your seatbelt. Don’t drink and drive. Basic stuff.

4) STDs. ALWAYS wear a condom when you’re fucking a woman you do not know well. The 10% extra pleasure is NOT worth the risk of getting an STD.

12) Buy 1 Bitcoin.

If you don’t even have 1 whole coin, just ignore prices and dollar cost average every single week. Get 1 whole coin while you still can.

Bitcoin is the future of wealth, there are only 21 million that will ever exist. The upper limit cannot change – no government, group, or miner can ever print more.

Acquire 1 full bitcoin (100 million satoshi), you are mathematically guaranteed to be in the top 0.2625% (21 million divided by 8 billion).

Pony up the cash and you’ll be set for life. Your children will thank you for it. All you gotta do is wait and watch adoption increase.

The trading price is a distraction. What actually matters is that countries in the future will use Bitcoin to transact with each other. Instead of oil and goods being purchased in USD, they will be purchased in Bitcoin.

Make it happen. Get that 1 whole coin at minimum.

That’s all for this piece.
