Quote of the Day - QOTD
HOT! MINDSETComing from less is sometimes an advantage. I learned that when I was very young and went to Fashion/Business College 50 years ago. The other "girls" there all had Daddy's credit cards.

Surprisingly simple stupid businesses- that somehow work
NOTABLE! IDEAYou're right. The key is to start. You must do something to get any results. You have a 100% chance of failing if you never start or you quit. And when you do start, you never know where it will lead you...- WJK

Surprisingly simple stupid businesses- that somehow work
NOTABLE! IDEAI keep watching this thread... and... I'm starting a new side gig that looks stupid simple from the outside. From the inside, it's frustrating and complicated to set it up on a professional level. I'm actually happy to find all the twists and turns because that means significant entry barriers...- WJK

What's your Lambo? (What are you working for?)
NOTABLE! CHATTo continue with my thoughts on your post... I don't try to follow others, but I do learn from them. I don't wanna waste my time and talents by reinventing the wheel. I'm starting a new business and it involves machines and a long learning curve. I have hired a couple of people to help us with...- WJK

What's your Lambo? (What are you working for?)
NOTABLE! CHATThat is a good jumping-off goal. Someday you may want to take it to the next level -- you may want to be the quiet, unseen catalyst for change and unsung source of unexpected acts of kindness in your little corner of the world. Think of all the good you can do with the trappings of your success...- WJK

CHATThe art business: Last night I finished up a series of graphics I’m calling “Grandma Says:”. It’s a collection of old truisms that we hear all the time. I don’t know if they will sell, but the investment is some of my time to collect and format them -- and a few supplies. I have 2 sheets of...- WJK

Are You ADDICTED to Reading?
HOT! MINDSETSome people do drugs or play video games to escape a painful life. Others cut themselves or commit suicide. I had a very painful childhood. My reading was my escape. As an adult, all that reading has put me light years ahead of the people around me. I have a wealth of knowledge they just don't...- WJK

What's your Lambo? (What are you working for?)
NOTABLE! CHATI'm older than you, but I have found the same truths. The things that were important when I was young don't mean much anymore. I have become a minimalist in most areas of my life.

What Is the Online Equivalent of a "Boring But Stable" Offline Business?
HOT!Many years ago when my disabled, adopted son was young, I hired him a tutor. That tutor was wonderful. He also talked me into going back to college for a graduate degree. I was in my early 40s and I ended up going to law school where I got a BSL and a JD. That tutor changed my whole life. I...- WJK

What Is the Online Equivalent of a "Boring But Stable" Offline Business?
HOT!I knew a guy who had a van and the right driver's license. During our fishing season here in Alaska, he picked up fishermen and delivered them with their fishing gear to the river. He would show up with their favorite coffee and pastry -- which he sold at a profit and transport them every day...- WJK

What would you tell your 18 or 25 year old self?
GOLD! MINDSETI think of it a little bit differently. I haven't found money (being rich) to be the answer. You can be totally right and still flatly fail. `I have found that it is better to be in rhythm with the Universe than to be right. I listen for its heartbeat and march to that cadence. I rarely say I'm...- WJK
