"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I am at a hard time in my life right now. So here is the scenario, I need advice:

- The last year I had a girlfriend (who I am not with anymore) that caused problems
- I got into problems like getting into a car accident (cost 4,000 to fix and it's fixed now, we were arguing in the car)
- Almost got arrested for reckless driving (had my lawyer get me out of it)
- I spent almost 3,000 throughout the relationship (I calculated after breakup)
- I recently dropped out of college
- I got my real estate license (now a realtor/loan officer)
- I was trying to pursue my career in real estate & loans to get into investing (however right now the market sucks and not making any money and deals that I couldn't close because of clients with bad credit)
- I have no income the last 3 months
- I have 5,000 in the bank right now (savings)
- I don't know whether to go back to school or get a job and wait till my business gets better, my mom needs my financial help
- My dad and mom are not together and my dad doesn't help around the house or my older brother


I really want to become a millionaire by 23 but right now it is not looking good. I hate school because it doesn't teach to become a business owner or investor. Also, I don't want a job because it takes time out of growing my business and right now business is slow as heck. I am only 18.5 years old and strong ambition to do something. I don't know where I am going at this point. I need advice from older folks.

judging my your actions, you need to go back to school. Preferably a community college. Work on the side. After 2 years in CC you'll have your degree so you can transfer and a pretty good idea of what is and isnt for you. Your probably at that stage in your life where your like "oh i'll come up with a secret to success, and live the rest of my days as a millionaire" Just get back on some common ground towards a common goal and then figure things out.
