I found myself at 21, few years of college, gained some confidence by taking challenging classes, started own business which forced me to deal with all sorts of people and face my fears, everything from heights to financial risk, these things help immensely with my confidence in general, it must be earned. As well as becoming prosperous eventually. But I was still terrified of girls, especially those who showed intense interest in me .
This may sound wrong to many but it worked wonders for ME. After having missed out on a couple fantastic opportunities with wonderful girls in college, simply out of FEAR....I was so pissed off at myself that I decided I knew exactly what to do--DO every girl who wanted me (I was a virgin up to then) and after my first few more came around, I guess word got out. I didn't carry on this way indefinitely, maybe a couple yr.s until I found a girl I fell in love with. It was the experience with the others that got me past the tragic, self destructive fear of what I wanted MOST. I deliberately murdered my shy side, it was the best thing I ever accomplished and I had fun doing it! :D Some cherished memories even with some ordinary girls.
I can't simply talk to myself in the shower, I have to 'climb the mountain', PROVE by doing the calculus, physics, rebuild an engine, take on contracts that I don't fully see my way through in the beginning and finish them to the customers satisfaction, satisfy some women before I know I can.

So do you think you had it tougher than those who were sent to Vietnam?....or pick your generation. EVERYONE, every generation has it's challenges. Maybe you had it TOO EASY? Deal with it. We all start where we start and move forward or don't. I didn't like my employment choices when I was 20 so I put every extra minute, dollar and watt of energy into creating my own job, my own business. I had no idea if it would succeed or fail, I just new I had to try. I had no TV, no stereo, no toys or luxuries what so ever until after a few yr.s when all my hard won skills and investments began to bear fruit. I never looked back, always been self employed and challenged, love some work and hate it other times but perseverance is it's own reward. What's to be gained by blaming others or the universe for your condition?....even if your 100% correct and were dealt a bad hand, SO WHAT? Start from where you are and take one step, then another in the direction you want to go. If it was easy it would be worthless.
