"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

So I just graduated this Saturday from high school! Gonna start working and stuff but I was wondering if I can still get scholarships. Simply put, I was dumb and didn't take any opportunities. For now its community college but with a scholarship that could get bumped to a four year.

Edit: New question also, on community college. How good is it from a social life point? Most people I know are going to four years or the military.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I did the exact same thing you did, by not going for any scholarships and going directly to community college.

The best tip I have looking back is to do what you really really want to do in life and go for that, and not what's convenient career wise. You will save yourself lots of time.

Also, don't do anything half hearted and if you are you're probably not in the right place.
