So, I recently found out that I am a career underachiever. I am not where I want to be. There are several reasons for this. Mostly, I don’t work hard enough.

So, I ask this question: how do I be a leader? If I can’t lead myself, then how can I lead girls on dates and to the bedroom?

Do you want to be a leader or do you want to be able to lead women? There is a difference. If your a leader/authority figure in life It helps a great deal but isn't a full on requisite to get girls. Yes you have to lead the women you date but you don't have to be a "leader" in life or among your peers to get girls.

You gotta pay the cost to be the boss in life. The king gets to wear the crown but the crown is heavy.

What rob said... Plenty of losers out there who clean up with girls. In fact if you're goal is quick sex it's probably better to be broke

I want to be able to lead women. Also, I meant leadership in terms of being response for yourself and prioritizing and managing your time.

I highly recommend learning that for yourself. No one else cares about your life more than you do. Here's to much success for you bro.

It is really a "learn by doing" thing. I started as a committee chairman as a grade school kid in one of my clubs.

What volunteer activities are you doing? Get some and help plan some events. Learn to prioritize and delegate and follow up.

Really if you do this long enough people just associate you with being a leader. Examples below:

My professional society, I attended meetings for years without any involvement. Before long I'm asked to join the board, then I'm named president. So many people are afraid to be a leader that there is a vacuum created by apathy to be filled.

Chamber of commerce, after attending lunch meetings for a couple years, and taking part in two events, I'm elected committee chairman. Why? Everyone knows me and associates me with the group.

Running group. I'm not the fastest, but I had been with the group for 8 years and everyone knows me. Then the store hires me at their request to be the coach of the group.

A female friend is recounting how we met. I was attending the event the same as she was, but she recounts it saying I was the one putting it on and running it. I wasn't in the least.

If you are out front and meeting people and introducing them to your group, club, business, and taking a role, people look to you for leadership. Even if you are assisting people in putting something on, YOU are a leader in the participants eyes.
