I'd go back and tell myself "Apply apply apply!" Seriously, if something doesn't make sense, find a way to put it in a context that you understand! My biggest challenge in school was just figuring out how to apply the things I was learning to myself and my own problems. Once I actually started using some of the stuff I was learning to further my personal projects it was like stepping on an express train, I made so much more progress, and did so much faster than when I was simply trying to memorize what I was being told. Also, I'd tell myself not to miss that date with that cute blond. "Dude, you're going to marry her someday and she'll never let you forget that you stood her up on your second date."
