I would focus on probably four things depending on where you want to end up in life.
1. Get jacked - This builds confidence... start on rippletoes starting strength and then move to madcow 5x5 and get to a 225 bench/315 squat/405 deadlift within a couple years. Then look at moving into more hypertrophy type exercises... I see too many kids doing arms and chest and not building a foundation.
2. Get into a team sport - Im hyper competitive and its from playing sports growing up, swimming, wrestling, football, track... I played sports all through high school and pivoted that mentality into business. All my core friends today are from football in middle and high school.
3. Find a skillset - I was always selling something growing up... duct tape wallets, tshirts, food... If i had learned more about the mechanics of selling it definitely would have helped and you have youtube access. I didnt have it at the level you have it today. Go learn from Hormozi and Alex Becker.
4. Also, learn how to speak to people especially girls. I meet too many "successful guys" that are dorks - they have money cause they need it to talk to chicks and they're generally not good people.. I never had an issue talking to beautiful women and dated them from the time I was your age till now. If you can talk to to a 10/10 you can talk to a CEO. This means you have to practice and the sooner you start, the better.
I did all those things and by the time i was 18/19 I started to research and get into ecom/real estate. Dont rob yourself of the growing up , all the girls are in one place and all your friends are in that same place. You get to do it once and there's no do overs. Do it right.
