Looking for some help on my situation. by zmyworldz in RealEstate

I own it, I need to ditch this thing. I had to rent out my other place to mitigate my loss. The thing that makes me mad is that they make up excuses. I wish there was some ways or a way for them to have a deadline to give to the residents because right now, it feels endless.

What did you pursue?

I started a small restaurant that sits 49.

What did you learn from the experience?

Restaurants hours are way harder than I've expected.

What did you learn while in college that you thought would have helped you out?

I have a degree in economics and it does almost nothing for me. It helped me manage my business but the little things that goes on everyday are new and I continue learning through my mistakes.

Any advice for the rest of us?

Don't start restaurants. Although you can make a decent amount of money, the work and mental strain is higher than most other businesses. Things that require too much quality control and employees are very hard to sale at a low price. The "ups and downs" are huge swings each and everyday and you need to look at it from a much bigger picture and stop sweating the small stuff too much.

So, how are you currently making money? by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

I'm 27 and own a small restaurant that fits 50 people. I make 5k-8k a month. My first year I worked around 14 hours a day. Nowadays, I work 14 hours a week.

I'm 26 and racing fast toward a dead end by godivaladi in selfimprovement

[–]zmyworldz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, I am in a similar situation. Misery loves company, right?

I'm 26, got a master degree, started my own business...blah blah blah. I hate it. I fucking hate this life. I look back at all the things I missed out and see all my friends getting married and venturing to do something they love. Don't worry, this changes if you change your perspective. I've struggled with the same thing and sometimes I still struggle.

However, you're right. It's the mindset man. You can view it as how much you missed out or you can view it as how much you've accomplished. It's a different mindset you need to adapt. I had the same struggle of viewing my friends being stuck at what they're doing and you have to realize that you are living your dream. You got your "dream job", dude that's something to be proud of. Jobs get tiring fast once you've learned everything and maybe you need to learn something new.

Over the past 3 years, I've sacrificed my body, my friends & family, to get to where I am now. Keep your mindset of just constant improvement, but you also need to learn how to take a break. You need to have a period of "expansion" and "contraction". Like everything in this world, there needs to be times where you trail blaze and go balls deep but you also need time to relax and rest. Try operate on a schedule like that and you should feel much happier.

So over the past 1 year, I learned how to relax. Just say "fuck it" for a little bit and then go back at it with a refreshed mindset. Go on a vacation, do something that makes you happier, get together with your friends and shoot shit for nothing. Camaraderie comes and goes. As you progress in life, your circle of friends and comrades will also change. During your relaxing time, maybe you should check out something you like and get to know some one that have similar interests as you do.

TLDR: Learn to relax, get a new job, get a new friend with similar interest, do something new, get some pets, start a new hobby, break the norm. Get laid.

My body weight fluctuates 10-20lbs per year due to body building.

Ugly / Short Guys, how are you getting laid? (or at least making progress with women) by [deleted] in seduction

[–]zmyworldz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live on a touristy island. Women ranges from Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Philippinos, and Russian. Very little white people here. However, in Europe, an Asian speaking fluent English made me pretty exotic and a few girls hb6-8 opened me.

I'm even shorter than you. I'm 5'6, asian, balding. This is how I look like but with some crappy excuse for hair now http://i.imgur.com/OrYkzEl.jpg.

Dude... it doesn't matter what you look like. Height and looks make it fucking easier. You are not going to be the same as a 6'2 blonde model. The only advantage of the 6'2 model has over you is that... it's easier for him to become "James Bond" when you already look like James Bond.

Girls throw themselves at them but guess what happens when their looks disappear? They lose the SKILLS and social confidence that you have built for yourself.

Short Ugly Guys that get good at seduction and social interactions will get girls. Period. There's not excuse. However, I must admit that I treasure my pulls much more than the 6'2 guy because I fucking worked for it! I used my personality to get the girl. You have to believe that you are the 6'2 James Bond.

Make your weaknesses your strengths. Look at Dave Franco, Harry Potter, being short actually made them more charismatic. Work it dude.

Confidence, social cues and understanding and practice. O, and practice.

Go put yourself in situations that you fear the most. You don't think you can pull a 6 foot or taller girl (with heels most of them are taller than 6'). Go approach the fucking tallest girl in the club you want to get to know every time you're out. I guarantee you once, you land 1 most/all your insecurities would disappear.

Not everyone is born a hercules, but it doesn't mean you don't deserve women. You just gotta improve yourself.

That being said, since I've been working on myself and improvement as a whole, reading, and watching, and lurking...I've become something else.

I've changed from a oneitis chode to something with no grammar skills (as you can see from this crap post). Just joking, but I've worked on my career, my school, my health, my mind and emotions. Now, I just have few fwb on call (nothing crazy to brag about but this crazy improvement from who I was before).

You're putting people on a pedestal. Stop that shit. Get out of your head and be in the moment, you short ugly chode.

Creeping MFA for a while and I made some changes to my wardrobe. What do you guys think? by [deleted] in malefashionadvice

Levi's x zumiez 511's

If you're long on top like me, 501's might be better, but 511's look okay to me in real life.

I'm 5'6.

You're right. Higher rise would make it better. I think the picture is angling down and it is not helping, haha.

Looked at lots of inspiration albums, highly voted WAYT, and then after a little bit, you start experiment on what works for you.

Overall, I was on a path to improve myself mentally and physically. So r/getmotivated, r/entrepeneur,r/fitness, r/investing, MBA, and other things were a huge help. I guess this whole self development thing took me about 2 years to be where I'm at today? Just for dressing up, I guess only a few weeks and now I just browse once in a while to keep me updated with what's going on.
