"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.

I am seventeen and I want to be someone. Not necessarily famous, but a man with integrity, influence, independence, leadership... etc.

When some of younger cousins ask me what I want to become when I grow up, I answer them confidently with a smirk in their face... "I want to be a good man." They laugh at my answer, as if they were expecting something else. In my opinion, the career does not define the man.

All through my life, I've had everyone tell me that school and university are the end all and be all. however, lately, I have come to the conclusion that this is not what defines life and success. I have seen many people achieve their careers and have a stable job, but they are still unhappy.

I want to succeed. Not necessarily only in a job, but in myself. I want to become a quality man.

All of you out there, men with wisdom, please do enlighten me. Share advice to an aspiring young adult.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

What are some good Leadership Books?

Not necessarily about women, but to all people in general. I want to have leadership skills.
