I am turning 18 tomorrow. Any life advice for me
This was reported twice for not being a shower thought. The reporters are correct, it’s not strictly a shower thought.
But thinking about getting older is something we all do in the shower, for multiple reasons :)
Looks like people are mostly enjoying it so I’ll let it stay for now.

Mods get them!
Always double-check.
For example, the community you are posting in.Measure twice, post once!
I just have one. Smart people learn from their mistakes. Wise people learn from the mistakes of others. You won’t live long enough to make all the mistakes yourself.
Everybody else is just faking it, too.
If you are male, you can get male pattern baldness in this age, but you can stop baldness by taking finasteride.
yeah my hairline is receding and I am a male.
Lift wieghts and or do some other physical activity. Its good to have two hobbies; a mental one and a physical one. The muscle you build now will be with you for the rest of your life, and its mucb easier to do it now than when you are middle aged like me.
Dont focus too hard on girls, just live your life and enjoy the experiences and relationships you build with all people; everything else will follow.
Travel, with a focus on the physically taxing things that are harder to do when you are older.
Invest what money you can, compound interest is real and it is the path to wealth (eventually).

Don’t stop training, don’t eat shitty food (at least, not daily), don’t believe anything you hear or read and always double check it.
You spent 18 years learning to navigate a gated world. You will do just as much learning in the next 18 navigating a newly ungated one.
Think about the sort of kindness you would want to treat a younger version of yourself as he fumbled through that learning. Practice treating your new “young” self with that kindness today. It will pay dividends.
Thanks. even though I am feeling overwhelmed and sad these days, I will try to love myself.
You got this, man.
