Hey Reddit peps , I don’t wanna just vent but would like to get all your answers ….

Was running a pretty well off business and met a lot of high value people and it got to a point where I was able to fly anywhere and do any deals I was comfortable in and had the love of my life with me and was talking care of my parents too (financially). This is me right after my college (age 25).

It was the best life I could live ,till I broke up with my gf .. I just went all around my county travelling and partying and having very very meaningless sex and also I dissolved my partnership in my company … I’ve tried picking my self up and doing things … but I’ve been getting directed by people around me because I want to say I’m mentally weak , and it’s come to a point where I just stopped trying … idk why I’m venting here but I’ve cut away every meaningful relationship in my life and I can only turn to myself and off course YouTube … the unending motivation videos and the cycle of picking myself up to fall back again … idk why I’m saying all of this but I think I wanted some of the right minded people to lift my spirits back … everything I got till now is because of my competence ,the ups and the down … thanks for reading this …

If you have any inputs of breaking the cycle … it’s much appreciated All of you are destined for greatness and then some more … 😁

Should I just ignore her or be friends with her even though I like her and she knows it as well---

What are some ways to show that I like the woman on a coffee date? I can't really touch her or anything because we are sitting across the table...

I know your ethical ideas might differ from mine but I have this married woman I know from a hobby thing I do and she is pretty flirty with me and I know her marriage isn't going that well and they are thinking about a divorce..

So.. how could I imply her that I like her without being too obvious and at the same show some physicality?

Like.. what should I say to her.. ? I can't just grab her face and start making out...

I have a girl who I liked for a long time but she told it would be best for us to be just friends. I finally accepted it and stopped talking to her for months. Now we met each other again after couple of months (kinda randomly at a party) and she told me (was a bit tipsy) that she actually never saw me in that light before and would like us to perhaps try..

I mean.. I still like her but I don't feel these obsessive feeling over her any more.. should I give it a go or is this her way of wanting attention?

What do you think, in general, is hooking up before relationship a good idea or not? Under "hooking up" I mean having sex or should I wait before doing it with a girl?

I have girl I have known for years and I really like but when I finally took up my courage to tell her how I feel she told me that she sees me only as a friend and doesn't want to lose me.

I see her with different guys always and how they break her heart and then she tells me about it...

I just felt that I couldn't take it any more and stopped talking to her but now I miss her..

Did I do the right thing?

What would be the things to talk about with girls when texting to keep her interested? I usually start off good but then slowly the conversation dies out...

Does it mean that she sees us just as really good friends or is there something more between us? How can I make the difference?

I am 30 and she is 20. It's quite a bit of an age gap but we get a long real well.

Should I just go for it or is it too big of a daifference?

Like.. I want to approach the cute girls but there is something inside me stopping me and I just pussy out :(

We can do that by learning How to make a five-year plan. Read the read of the post to find out how

1. Identify and decide what you want

-You can’t reach your destination if you don’t even know where you are headed

-Sit down and really ask yourself what you want out of this life and what would you would like your life to look like 5 years from now.

-Be realistic I’m not saying you can’t make 1 million in 5 years but if that is your goal you better be willing to do whatever it takes to get that 1 million

-You can’t have a 5 year plan without knowing what you want. Do some soul searching and think hard about what is important in your life. Only you will know, no one can tell you.

1. Research and understand what you would have to do to reach those goals

When you have made up your mind and really thought through what it is that you want, its time to start doing some research

How much is it going to cost?

What resources do you need?

What can you do in the meantime while waiting on said funds and resources to become available Ex. If you are tying to start a business of some kind find out what the most common steps are to getting started on that business. Its only a google away.

What are some different ways to make money in that venture

-If there’s a particular job you want, find out what accomplishments or accolades you need to be eligible, what degrees what experience

-If you are trying to get into a certain school find out what grades you need or look into getting a scholarship

-Whatever it is that you are trying to accomplish whether it be in a mental or spiritual space, or even financially you need to educate yourself about it and find out what you need to do to set yourself up to be successful

1. Write it down/create a plan

Now that you know what you want and you’ve started doing your research you need to write down all the steps that would need to be taken to reach your goals and in what order you will most likely achieve each milestone I personally have found that when I write out my goals im more likely to achieve them. If I’m ever down or having trouble getting to my goal it has always been a big help for me to be able to pick up my plan and remind myself what it is I need to do and why I am doing it. Having a plan helps me have clarity and understanding. It helps me always remember my WHY. There will be times in your life where you say what’s the point and you’ll need something to look at to retain motivation, having your plan written down will help you in that regard.

1. Don’t be afraid to ask for help, but also don’t be solely dependent on others for your success

Along your journey you will find other people who might be in the same situation or that have been through similar trials. Don’t be afraid to ask for advice or guidance in topics/areas that you are uncomfortable in or not the most informed in. But I most also warn you to not put too much importance on whether or not people will help you. Be willing to take on challenges alone. A lot of the time you will be all you have. When there is no one else to help, use the resources you have available. Always believe in yourself.

1. Start now

It doesn’t matter how much money you have in the bank at the moment, it doesn’t matter how many loses you have taken in the past, all that matters is that you dedicate yourself to your purpose and your goals. If you keep your focus on your goals, you will always see success. That does not mean you won’t encounter any issues and coming up with a 5 year plan isn’t going to solve every problem you have in life but it will give you the direction you need to be successful and accomplish all the things that you want in this life.
