When I was about as young as you were, I had the same feelings. I wanted to get into a fight and work someone over. I also wanted to get the crowd to say "Owwwwwwwww!" when I landed a right cross in some doucebag's face. There was a desire to make myself superior against another guy who clearly...

Then it would be safe to say that the reason my friend isn't seeing success is because of his own lack of drive? I apologize if that sounded negative, but there's nothing more aggravating than someone asking for help, not using your help, and then complaining he's not going anywhere.

And you're probably right. I gave this advice to him in the field when he kept on losing sets five seconds after the open. And this was due to him not respecting the girl's personal space. However, that's just an isolated instances. That could lead to an off-set question: would someone with...

There's a guy in my city that I typically wing with. He has Aspergers and often times he runs into obstacles when approaching sets because of his disability. I often give him advice when he approaches and in general "Make sure you're creating distance when you first open" "Always root your...

Let me play devil's advocate and say that there is good life coaches out there that offer more value then success stories and mantras. Hell, most of them out there wouldn't consider themselves to be life coaches. They're just guys (and gals) that have tried more, and failed a lot more then...

I use the pomodoro method when I am working on something which helps me focus. The method behind it is you do 25 minutes of focused work. No distractions. Phone stays on silent and in your pocket. The only thing in front of you and to your attention is anything that pertains to your work. Then...

From a practical perspective, I don't see abundance being a factor at all. And the talk of not having the right "genes" seems like we're viewing this from under a microscope. It's like saying that someone can't pick-up 200lbs because he or she isn't outputting a large enough signal down their...

I thought white pills were supposed to be Tylenol...

Being a native in the central ohio area, there is high quality women all around Columbus. And it's only going to get better as time goes on. You just have to look in the right spots. Hell, you can find some good looking women in the East Columbus area as long as you're willing to look for hidden...

Goats can't talk... And they don't give a **** about cats...

Kudos for keeping up with the journal! And keep at it man! It's just a matter of running the clock till you get to your tipping point. I'm sorta in the same boat but I'm transitioning into the web development industry. I even so much as quit my job and devoted full time to refining my skills...

I've been living with my parents since I graduated from college back in 2013 and I'm approaching 30 as well. I agree that eventually you will have to move out. However unless you have a clear goal to work towards, it would be nonsense in contemplating moving out of your folk's house. Because...

He makes a good point. Despite where he is in life, what he has done in the past was well worth it. It's just a matter of balance.

Well, since you asked :P I would be hitting up meet-ups in your area. Being at a young age, there is much more time on your hands than you would have as an adult. That, and you gain more experience being around adults working full-time and dealing with real world problems. A good example of...

What are you suggesting? Should we not be doing Salsa?

I think I can vouch having the best tranny radar. That's only because I lived with one :p

I know it's difficult to realize that you have the whole life ahead of you and despite your setbacks, you still are in a greater position than most of us on this forum. That in itself is the challenge, and without being at that age where you can look back, makes it difficult to have that...

I think if we could reflect on what we tried to accomplish in lives now, I'd say we gotten pretty far. I'm glad you gotten a little further with your dream :)

I've worked in a call center for a retail credit card company. Most soul sucking and dream crushing hell hole of a job I ever worked. The description on the poll fits my experience almost spot on. Did it for two years till I got a "promotion" into corporate. It was a lateral move, but man it...

It's the movie rating system. You know, G for general audience, PG for parental guidance, PG-13 no one under 13 should watch the movie without parental guidance, and R for restricted for adults.
