think of it this way; your normal stove never worked, so you're cooking on a camp stove. odds are you're just way less efficient at whatever the normal stove would have gotten you, but there's always that one percent chance you set your fuel source on fire and your shit explodes.

you decide whether it's worth your energy to switch stoves to the safer, less volatile fuel source.

Out of my friend group in highschool I am the only one to have their bachelor's degree in 4 years and the only one with a real big boy job at the moment. All of them are either graduating late, dropped out, or never went to college. They are all working as bartenders/waiters/car salesmen. My relationship with my GF is amazing and she's super based (voted for Trump in '16). I didn't meet anyone in college outside of my roommates from freshman year. I'm still buddies with 2-3 people so not like I had zero friends but it was a huge shift socially as I went from partying every Friday/Saturday and knowing 500+ people to just grinding school. Not sure I would recommend what I did exactly but I think deliberately choosing to be disciplined and getting your shit together will dramatically improve your life.

The red pill is that people (friends, family, coworkers) aren’t a burner at all.

Connections are built around shared interests. Your build relationships around your focus areas (work, fitness, hobbies, etc). When these things fade from focus, the people do to. Make a person or group the focus is dependence, it’s clingy, it turns people off.

So pick 3 burners, then build a network of people around those
