Realization
I turned 16 about three months ago. I recently hopped on self improvement and self isolation because I realized these people I used to hang out with have no real future other than a corporate job getting B*tched by their boss for a measly 5k paycheque monthly if they behave well. So I bought the first book in my life "the Millionare Fastlane" midway into the book I realized I never bought in on the slowlane BS. The idea of sacrificing your ur young for not even that good of a reward sounds terrible. After I retire I probably won’t even have enough for a supercar, i'll probably have to settle with something cheaper. Which means im compromising even after wasting 30 years on a job I hate.
Action
The first thing I did is applied in the Army Reserves so I can build up discipline at a young age and try to start an online clothing business which I still didn't finish due to my poor habits but I will get there, I also started researching career options. After listening to a few Andrew Huberman podcasts I really want something to do with psychology while making money. Im recording my change process and planning on uploading it on youtube but isn't there a million other self improvement journey youtubers already, how am I gonna make mine stand out?
Lost
-Im confused on what I really wanna do with my life when I graduate. Do I really want to go to university for psychology? Should I enlist in the army?
-Should I just go for a computer science degree?
-How can I be productive? I keep saying i'll change or do work but I end up doing only 1 productive thing and crashing
-Who do I go to for advice?
-how can I do good in school while trying to manage a business and working out?
Gratitude
I really want to thank MJ DeMarco for introducing me to the Fastlane, without it I probably would have wasted my youth
