    Motivation and Validation Story

    MINDSET 
    My intro here was a little vague, so I wanted to share some things with while I'm thinking of it about how this forum and the book have begun a transformation in my life. I haven't posted too much in an effort to avoid getting into too much BS, but I think this is worth it. I graduated...

    Questions about mind-set

    MINDSET 
    You need to engage in self confidence building activities in college that you can draw back upon when you are able to start a business. My advice would be to spend the next 6-12 months working on things that will bring your confidence up and keep developing ideas to the point of being able to...

    Please, I need help to turn around a failing business

    Definitely post some pictures! If your only feedback has come from salespeople, friends/family, and non paying customers, we can constructively make suggestions. If it's not too much, include a picture or two of the outside of the store and perhaps the whole plaza. I can't wait to post my beta...

    Please, I need help to turn around a failing business

    - Contact business reporters of local newspapers and see if they will do a free write up of your new business - Talk to owners of other stores in the plaza - specifically stores that may cater to your market - and see what they've done to increase traffic - Do everything on your marketing plan...

    Fck the bllsht - let's make a difference that really counts!

    EXECUTION 
    Unless you think you can successfully lobby for an entirely new (taxpayer funded) program when there are debt/budget battles left and right, I think a better idea would be taking your idea to a reverse mortgage provider. Advertise it as an add on - instead of getting $500* per month the elderly...

    Have access to unused warehouse/office space. How do I maximize this asset?

    Call every political candidate who's running for office and see if they need some cheap space for the next 2 months for phone calls, gathering, etc. Make some money from them since they'll be making it from you!

    Dealing with anxiety

    EXECUTION 
    Hell yeah! Definitely keep going to new places and checking out new things. When I was digging myself out of a hole a few years ago I used to go to coffee shops in areas I was unfamiliar with and just walk around, people watch, talk to new people, and take in new environments. It really helps...

    What are some of the habits you've developed to keep you motivated?

    MINDSET 
    - Bought a notebook and created a giant to do list that encompasses everything I need to do regarding business, chores, and everything else. Basically just committed to add as much as possible and to be able "cross off" as many things as possible every day. - Always reminding myself about every...

    Well, never thought I'd be posting about this

    Definitely do some research on what people may like in your area. Try looking up dishes served in different cities that don't yet exist in your town and serve it to a bunch of friends and family for dinner some night to see if it might work. For example, every town in my region has a "hots"...

    From existential crisis to internal peace

    HOT! MINDSET 
    It seems like you are overly proud of yourself for just getting back to square one after some dark times. It's an accomplishment to get rid of demons but what's next? Can you fulfill needs and solve problems with your guitar playing? If not do you have other ideas and if so can you execute them...

    Received my college diploma today!

    Congrats on finishing debt free and ready to conquer your fastlane dreams! My biggest issue with college was everyone saying "this is the best 4 years of your life"... I just shake my head. Anybody who resigns to this thinking must be brainwashed to have no dreams, ambitions, or drive. When I...

    Ashton Kutcher Gives Life Advice at Teen Choice Awards

    MINDSET 
    I think he did something similar a few years back warning about the dangers of credit card debt too. Pretty refreshing remarks from the usual award ceremony speeches!

    What's your "why"?

    MINDSET 
    1) There are plenty of sidewalkers and slowlaners with “needs” to be filled! I was at the bank gathering information on business accounts when outside walked a young woman close to my age – early 20s. She was walking a dog, talking on an ipone, drinking her starbucks, and wearing clothes and...
