Lifestyle tweaks in order to maximize and manage testosterone, free time, money, women, and social life...

I'm 25, fresh out of college, and wondering what tweaks you guys have made in order to maximize the benefits you get out of life. Specifically, I'm referring to things like testosterone management, free time/time-management, money, women, and social life.

I've found that mindset when it comes to the latter four things on the list above is a major contributor to success in those areas, but it is not everything.

When it comes to free time: setting alarms every hour and thinking you have to force yourself to do it, grudgingly, is not the way to go. I set up my days around how something is going to make me feel. For example, I'll give myself a 15 minute rest, then go to the computer to practice coding. I know those moments from when you're just rising out of bed and booting up the computer are where you feel drained by the change in INTERTIA, but if you just keep rolling through it, you'll feel alright again in no time. You gotta like it. When you like it, you'll do it.

With money, it helps that I'm naturally practical in a lot of ways. I don't need the fanciest clothing, cars, this's and that's simply because I place more value on how well it's going to help me accomplish my goals. Pink Gold Iphone my ass.

Women: When I'm out, I just focus on the successes of the night. I save the cringe moments for when I'm alone and am no longer concerned with fighting those feelings. If I'm naturally going to feel a negative emotion, I'll feel it. It's necessary for learning. I also stay clear of dogmatic observation of pick up techniques and other manipulative mind tricks. They take up much mental energy. I say just get confident in your social skills and let your instincts do the rest.

Social life, pretty simple. You can make a conscious decision to be nice, really nice, and people will pick up on that and see it for what it is. Or, you can simply be honest with yourself and focus on what you want and like to do, and just do it without thinking of all the consequences or moral implications or doubts that you would normally contend with.

Anything workable you'd want to share? I know this is a basic list, but it's my first time posting, so bare with me.

Some random musibgs:

- Practice excellent oral hygiene: floss everyday, sonicare, therabreath mouthwash (kills bad breath) and listerine.

- Get your eyebrows threaded - the pros will neaten them up and make them look more symmetrical.

- Canned sardines, lots of organic eggs, spinach and avocado. All four deserve the title of superfoods. Four staples of my diet.

- Gym 5 days a week.

To start...

I've heard good things about avocados. It surprises me how vital integrating fruits and veggies into your diet really is.

jbkunt2 - drop some data on eyebrow threading & canned sardines.

I have huge eyebrows and have always been told I should get them threaded. My barber touches them up, which seems to be fine.

Canned sardines were mentioned by Tim Ferriss recently. Do you shoot them down straight?

Also, do not forget to brush your tongue. It is one of the reason for bad breath and people ignore it to focus only on the teeth

Turn off your cell phone notifications (audio + vibrate). This way when you are doing an activity (any activity) you are fully immersed in it and you can give it your 100% focus, versus being distracted all the time and thus having less focus. You will naturally develop a habit of checking your phone anyways every couple of hours or so, but this time you get to decide if something is worth the time and energy to respond to, rather than your phone telling you that all notifications/calls/texts need your attention NOW.
