To advise or not to advise?
People love to give advice, don't they? Especially those who are still young or think they know enough to give advice.
I can understand, I was young once. I was hurt, angry, disappointed, frustrated, sometimes excited...all those emotions I needed to find some ways to channel out. So, what did I do? I started telling people what to do, what not to do, as if I was an expert. Sometimes I tried too hard, I needed to convince them. I needed to warn them. I needed to save them. Really? Could I? Can I? I needed to save myself first. I should be looking at myself and working on myself first. How much did I know? How much do I know to tell others? Yeah, ok...share but don't advise.
When I said I knew better, I knew best....guess what? Some folks could be rolling their eyes or shaking their head at me. I don't know enough shit to tell people what to do or not to do. I must remind myself not to act like an expert. Tell what I know but don't have to have the need to convince and make them follow my idea or opinion.
Sometimes it's best to shut up and just do.
Now, that's probably the best advice for myself.

You can thank Mervyn Sinaga later.
MEN, IT'S 2017 SO RESOLVE TO STOP DOING THESE THINGS RIGHT NOW...
1. Girly things
Men, stop wasting your time doing girly things. If your girl wants to do girly things, like eating ice-cream in the mall, she can do that with her girl friends. Give her that freedom. Go with her on special occasions where you can be the man and show her a great time. Doing girly things will cost you A LOT OF MONEY.

2. Being Overly Nice
Being overly nice is for guys who need validation/approval. Spend your time aiming to achieve MUCH MORE in your life than opening doors or carrying her handbag. Parents will encourage you to be overly nice. Go that route if you wish. But never let it be said that I didn't warn you. Being overly nice will cost you A LOT OF MONEY.

3. Thinking Seriously About A Girl
Don't even spend time thinking about girls. If you want a girlfriend, just get one. It's not hard. Don't spend time thinking seriously about it. It's just a bit of fun. As men, you are capable of so much more than you think, but all I see is boys wasting time taking the whole girlfriend thing too seriously. Have you got nothing better to think about? Thinking seriously about a girl will cost you A LOT OF MONEY.

4. Relying on People's Advice
Stop asking people for advice. Unless it's mission-critical and you trust their vast experience. As a rule, go figure things out for yourself. If you want the answer to something, go make a mistake first, then reflect and make changes. Then talk about it with an experienced man. Don't rely on women for advice, ever. Go understand the principle of self-reliance before you go batshit crazy over what you just read.

4.1. Believing Facebook Posts, Even If It Is True
There's great info on the internet. But even if it is true, you shouldn't rely on it. Even reading this forum can be a waste of time. Why? Because as a man, you have the capacity to figure this stuff out all by yourself without needing a website to give it to you step-by-step. You also have the responsibility to hone this skill. The fact that I spell it out for you, time after time, disturbs me.

5. Buying things
Stop being a frivolous consumer. The industry has a million ways to persuade you to part with your money. If you must buy something, then buy manly things—things that have primarily some functional value. A nice watch is not primarily functional. It's cosmetic. Spend on things/services that help you become more skillful at something. A toolkit, not a makeup kit. Image is for girls. I'm serious. And when you buy it, for God's sake, put the fucking thing to good use. Then shaddap about it. Men don't need to get emotional about their tools/toys. Boys do. Being a frivolous consumer will cost you A LOT OF MONEY.

In 2017, the keys to your manhood are:
1. Go out and do—90% time
2. Spend a bit of time reflecting on what you learned—5% time
3. Plan your adjustments—5%
4. Re-do
1. Go out and do—90% time

If you do the above, your life will change. Is there time to dream about girls, or debate about who pays on the first date? No. Just move ahead with doing things, creating things, making ideas real, earning your savings targets and learning life skills like conversation, cooking and how to save & invest properly. Doing/learning these things will MAKE/SAVE YOU A LOT OF MONEY.
Finally, if you're truly grateful for something someone has done for you, let them know. But don't get all fucking girly about it. The attitude of gratitude is the most spiritual thing I will ever recommend. It will make you wholesome and healthy in spirit.
There is so much to do as a man in 2017. Get on it.
