1.) For the most part, time you spend chasing girls would be better spent improving yourself. Less time meeting girls and more time becoming the man they want to meet.
2.) Alcohol. Have some fun with it, but by 25, it's not going to be novel anymore, and at this age (maybe a few years later), the negative effects will increasingly start to outweigh the positive ones. Even before 25, start to learn how to have fun, go out at night, and talk to people without it. It becomes a life long crutch for too many people.
3.) Understand that your time and your body are the two things in life you don't get more of. Don't abuse them and don't let others abuse them. Which leads into my final point (others have talked about it too but I feel it can't be said enough:
4.) Be very discriminating with who you let into your life. Understand what real friendship is (hint, it's not drinking buddies), and recognize that, unfortunately, there are MANY toxic people in this world. You'll have "friends" who you party with that will make you look bad behind your back. You may not take the bitchiness or craziness of some women that seriously at 20, but as you get older a crazy/bitchy woman has ways to burn you that can really be a hinderance in your life. Good relationships are better than none, but none is certainly better than bad relationships. Free yourself of NEEDING relationships allows you to pursue only the ones worth while.
