    Does everyone struggle to learn code?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    It takes a lot of patience. Learning to code will be one of the most frustrating experiences of your life, but it might be very rewarding when you overcome it. Give it time, you'll get there.

    How to Take Action When You Don't Feel Like It

    MINDSET 
    The list really helps. I would be lost without lists. I consider it to be the most powerful and at the same time simplest productivity tool ever. Once you break down a task into actionable steps, it's not that scary. Reading "The War Of Art" also helped me with the mindset part.

    A sales tip for techies

    MARKETING 
    I've read about 15 sales books. Only one was outside the steretypical snakeoil salesman framework, and actually suggested an approach similar to what you are describing. And it was my favourite one :).

    Make Money with building Websites: The ultimate Way

    HOT! 
    I am a developer, and I agree. Me learning sales and marketing is a proof of that. If you just want to make $$$, probably no need. But don't forget, being technical is a ridiculous advantage. Should you pursue that mastery if you don't already have it? I wouldn't recommend it, unless it is of...

    How can I understand myself? (Motivation/Discipline)

    MINDSET 
    Just my $0.02: see what you are resisting, where are you going against your body the most. Example: I kept trying to get up early in the morning, rise and shine, seaze the day, all of that. It only made me miserable since I was constantly failing. I'm talking like years of trying here. No...

    The 10x Rule by Grant Cardone - Crazy or Brilliant?

    BOOKS 
    I like the guy, but seems like he never says anything of substance. You can listen through 2 hours of cheerleading and you still may not hear even one practical advice. It's kinda fun though. I've been hustling for 10+ hours in the last 4 years so I know motivation is not a problem for me, but...

    Book: Blue Ocean Strategy

    I see this book recommended here and there, but honestly it never intrigued me enough to read it. From the summaries I read, it basically suggested find your niche, iterate on an idea, stuff like that.

    Looking for advice "How to Start Side Hustle, Exercise, Me Time while holding Full time Job"

    INTRO 
    True. It never stops to amaze me, how so many of my friends and people I've met want to succeed without any sacrifice at all. It will happen to some, but those are the lucky exceptions. The rest of us gotta hustle, no way around it.

    Man's Search for Meaning, by Viktor Frankl

    HOT! 
    Amazing read. Amazing. Reminds me of the stoic phylosophy. The guy endured everything, there is hardly anything worse that can happen to a human being. Even better than the book, he later went on and had a successful, fulfilled life, not allowing the horrors he witnessed and persevered destroy...

    What this guy said. No point in writing an answer, he has covered everything I would suggest.

    Jay-Z Becomes America's 5th Black Billionaire & First Hip-Hop B-Boy!

    The rap game would produce a lot more, but sadly rappers really love strip clubs and white tigers

    Are you sure you don't have time ? Facing these addictions affecting your schedule.

    MINDSET 
    Spending years gaming is one of my biggest regrets ever. I know it's a weakness of mine so I run away from games, gamers, gaming as if they're the plague. Good news is, the drive to play significantly drops after a few years. Stay on the path, get that Lambo! :)

    Starting a Digital Marketing Company

    MARKETING 
    That's a good plan for generating sales. Don't write off email so easily though, those can complement each other very nicely. Good luck.

    Has anyone checked out the Amazon Marketplace Appstore?

    SOCIAL MEDIA 
    I don't have an Amazon seller account, and it seems that I can't browse the Marketplace Appstore without one. Had an idea of building something for Amazon sellers so I wanted to see what kinds of extensions and integrations are already there, especially around social media marketing. Can...

    The ultimate, constantly fresh list of online communities about social media, digital marketing and

    SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING 
    I compiled a list of communities about digital marketing, social media management or any other form of online entrepreneurship (naturally, FastLane is in it). This list was started for my own personal needs, but I soon realized it would be a useful resource to anyone interested in building a...
