Pursue at least one thing that matters to him... a crazy career, talent, goal, accomplishment, etc. Just say, what have you always wanted to try or do? After answer, you can say "great, let's make sure you do that before you graduate."

The benefits are: - He gets it out of his system i.e. gets over it. - He might be really good and be glad he started early. - At very least, builds that habit as you and @amitmukherjee mention. Plus more, of course.

Extra credit: - start acting like the best version of a person in the career he wants now. eg don’t wait to be a CEO to start acting like an amazing CEO - start dressing like your boss’s boss These are a bit too Millennial for most Zoomers, but both build character & confidence.
