Feeling useless...

<p>Ive recently come over with a strong passion for business, becoming a CEO is my dream. I am majoring in business management currently but once i transfer to OU i will go up to masters in economics major, with a minor in sociology. I have an alright 3.77 and am apart of Phi Theta Kappa and Psi Beta. But i still feel....useless? I have lack luster social skills, i am nervous around girls, but i am book smart. Graduating a year early i just now turned 18 (feb 2nd) while everyone in my dorms is in their 20s, so i am looked at as the boy, little chris. Also small compared to them and shorrrrrrt. At 5'6 135 pounds i am nothing compared to these star athletes, i dont think ill become CEO because most people in power are 6 foot plus eaasy, can a short small guy hope to become something in life? </p>

<p>This is the first time ive done something like this (posting anything feelings related) I dont know why but this has been in me for years now, i have no idea why i deccided to write this now. </p>

<p>Many people never become CEOs. The easiest way to get that title is to start your own company. What makes you feel useless? No friends? Are you just worried that you might not become a CEO?</p>

<p>My S is about 5’6" and maybe 120 pounds. He has a great, very responsible position as a project manager with an EE degree. He has never mentioned his height being a particular disadvantage. Most of the people he supervises are considerably older than he is and it doesn’t seem to bother him. Don’t worry about your age, time will take care of that. :)</p>

<p>@Bouncer: More or less, just that all i see in the media are tall guys, tall women, big men, short jokes. It just seems like theres a fair amount of bias that goes into the corporate world, as well as political (im not too sure there have been presidents that were short AND skinny) The shorter ones usually accommodate by being badass. I have friends, still my whole thing is being short, everyone even girls mention it. I guess im just in a bad mood today and letting it all get to be, feeling disheartened. Ill man up tomorrow but for right now im gonna feel sad. Because i want to. </p>

<p>That actually makes me feel a bit better, thank you. </p>

<p>Dude don’t worry much about being short and skinny. If you don’t want to be skinny, excerise and gain some muscle. If not then just be happy with your size, its honestly the only way your going to over come that, gain muscle or be happy.
As to being short, your still taller than most women anyway so that shouldn’t bother you really. Plus your 18 and most men stop puberty in their early 20s so you still have time( I thought I stopped at 5’6" but I grew a inch in the past yr and Im 21). I was just like you (worrying about looking short, skinny, and having a babyface) and some of those thing sometimes bother me now, but I learn that you will never get over it unless you change to look the way you want, or be happy with how you look now. Confidence usually attracts anyone, so just take a step towards that and you will be fine</p>

<p>Your absolutely right Dreadful, i work out now and i do have a solid frame, even people here tell me im damn muscular. It was just one of those moments where you seemingly can only think about everything in a negative view lol, i hope i grow a bit 5’8 ill be happy. I get girls, im not too worried. Thank you hearing that from someone with the same views as me lets me know it aint all bad. </p>
