Many people overestimate the effect that studying has on exam performance and underestimate fueling your body properly. In reality, understanding the mind-body connection is crucial to success with the level of competition present in modern American universities. If you donāt do this because itās āunhealthyā or āmakes you feel sickā, thatās fine. But I can guarantee your competitors are following this method, especially the high-achieving international students youāll be competing with to get into law/med/grad school.
1. Start smoking cigarettes - this is especially essential if you never smoke cigarettes. Ideally do all studying outside with a cigarette in hand for efficiencyās sake. If it rains, snows, or hails use your textbook or laptop to shield the cigarette from harm, lest it get put out
2. Cut out all animal protein, especially red meat. Steadily implement a diet of nothing but bread, rice, and fried eggs
3. Turkish coffee every 3 hours to clear the gut flora of bacteria that causes self-doubt, sluggishness, and complacency. In truth, this should be done year-round if you have the time and money. Donāt expect anyone else to tell you the truth, but youāre already behind if you just started now
4. Daily prescription stimulants of choice
5. Limit showering to protect your natural aroma that will subconsciously inspire professors to grade your exam more favorably
6. Masturbate several times the night before the exam to increase mental clarity and limit distractions. No Fap is a Russian psyop to lower the Chechen-American birthrate
7.Ā Scale down blacking out from alcohol to once a week. If your studying schedule allows for it, pencil in the blackout for the eve of the exam. It will disrupt your REM sleep, helping you wake up earlier, in turn providing you extra time for studying. Vomiting before or during the exam will decrease cortisol levels

Food is one of the worst things for you. For most of the summer, I was having a large smoothie with whey protein isolate, egg yolks, powdered coconut oil, and frozen berries. Only for the past several days (Iām recovering from SARS COV-2) have I abandoned this highly caloric, insulin-bomb of a breakfast, replacing it with cold water, creatine, and powdered coconut oil, blended. You wouldnāt believe how much sharper I feel mentally, how much less hungry I am all morning, my neighbors have stopped complaining about my outburstsā¦ the list goes on and on.Ā
Oh, but back to food being bad for you. I really do think eating a ton of food is one of the worst things for you. You can read about this in my book, in which the protagonist, in an attempt to gain weight and become physically more imposing, starts eating a ton of food, and his quality of life suffers greatly. Itās a really clever commentary on masculinity and āimprovement cultureā in general, actually. You should read it.Ā
I too have gone through periods of regimented physical activity (lifting weights) and eating large quantities of food, and it always leaves me feeling terrible, physically and mentally. Lately Iāve started eating huge portions of vegetables again (bag of Brussels sprouts, bag broccoli, two large zucchini) in the middle of the day and itās been working out really nicely for me. Skin cleared up, mind feels sharp, face looks more chiseled and handsome, itās been great.Ā
You (the reader) should probably eat less food, just like, statistically, most people eat too much. I know that might not be true for the target audience of this newsletter, so if you have an eating disorder then you should eat a little bit more (but not too much too fast), but most people should eat less food and replace some of the food theyāre already eating with more vegetables. Theyāll experience great benefits from eating their first meal as a large bowl of vegetables with ghee around 2pm.Ā
