Don't worry about what other people think.
Other people are so worried what you and everybody else thinks that they are entirely too self absorbed to fixate on you. They are already fixated on themselves.
Think "Blurry Face" by 21 Pilots.

Don't worry too much about grades. Focus on girls, your height, your looks, and girls. Get experience so you can know how tricky people are. Marry young if you want to get married.
Don't focus on money too much. It will easily come later. Focus on girls. It is much easier to meet, date, and sleep with girls when you are younger than when you are older. They don't care about money when you are older.
Even if they do, you are a sucker because they slept with all the guys with no money when they were younger.

How exactly does one "focus" on their height?

... if you didnt tend to your looks, and thus don't age well. Any DJ who tends to his money and looks as he ages will find his SMV increasing with age.
The good news is if you focused only on money and denied your physicality as you got older, then you have money to fix your looks if you didn't age well.
I can make any mature man (or any man for that matter) into a beast if he were willing.

Think with your head but talk and behave like others.
Do your own interest regardless general morality and other people needs but give the impression that you are behaving as expected.

Do what you is your best interest but dont let it be seeing because its not morally acceptable, reframe it into pretending you are doing it for someone else benefit or any morally acceptable choice.
Do what you have to do but make it seem like you live and obey the rules.

General Rule:
Avoid becoming a target of (negative) gossip by keeping your mouth shut. Always assume that nobody can keep a secret. You'll be right 99.99 percent of the time.

This this this
I would tell my teenage self to not be too opinionated, don't tell too much about yourself don't tell too much about others, talk less, do more.
Be a blank projector screen for others to project themselves on.
People never know the real you, they only know what parts of themselves they project onto you.
Being a silent mirror is very seductive.

Take what everyone says with a grain of salt, don't trust anyone (especially women) except your direct family and absolute BEST friends, don't sweat the little things (e.g., fighting because someone calls you a name isn't worth it), don't be a follower/bandwagoner.
Mysterious vibe, I like.

Just as an add-on....
Both men and women gossip, a lot. We already discussed the importance of not leaking personal stuff about yourself. Also, if someone tells you something in confidence, keep it that way. Be that extremely rare person who keeps things quiet, and people will feel comfortable telling you all kinds of things.
More importantly, don't talk shyte about other people, not matter how much you dislike them. People will really respect you when you avoid speaking ill of others. Also be careful about people trying to BAIT you into talking shyte about others. This is a common (fictitious) scenario...
Gossiper: Mike32ct is a jerk, don't you think?
You: yeah kinda
Gossiper: <Tells everybody> I never said anything bad about Mike. I like him, but Joji told me that he's a jerk.
TDLR: When people try to bait you into leaking info about yourself, or leaking secrets or talking shyte about others, don't take the bait.
(I work in an office, so I learned how nasty gossipers can be.)

I hate to be bleak, but...
The things you think are going to change your life, won't.
The six-pack. Six figures in the bank. Mastering new hobbies.
You think you're going to break through, that there's some sort of paradigm shift on the other side of your goals. But there isn't.
