    Wreck your resume?

    MINDSET 
    It used to bother me too, I can't take that worry seriously now though. Very valid and good points! I am dealing with this now. Financially I am not in the position I would like to be in, but for me this pursuit is all or nothing. It is difficult to find that high paying corporate job and I...

    My Job

    I bring in about $2000 now. Living expenses come to around $800. Did have the emergency with the car that I am now paying off. Also, these numbers don't include $10,000+ of college debt I don't pay on. Payment should be like $160 a month I think. I have time for entrepreneurship, but don't know...

    My Job

    I am working another job and applying for corporate jobs. Hopefully I can get out with a high paying job, then get to a place where I can get back to entrepreneurship.

    Wreck your resume?

    MINDSET 
    I decided about a year ago the corporate life wasn't for me. It was comfortable and I was paid well. I was also stuck in a mind numbing job doing things I hated for 9 hours a day. It wasn't the life I wanted to live. I traded it in for sales (more freedom) and I traded that in for the chance to...

    My Job

    Sucks. I work in a call center and it is the worst job that a person can do. I failed at my online business and fell on some tough times as my car broke as well, so it's what I had to do to pay the bills. I post this for me, and maybe for others who have been in a similar position. If it has...

    How do I monetize this?

    I have a facebook site unofficially associated with my old college. The page is followed by 1600 people, and could grow if I would like it to. The demand for the page is there and there has to be someway to provide value to these ppl in a way they can give back. How do I get money from this...

    Another athlete proves it doesn't matter...

    To add to this discussion I want to point out the basketball player Wilt Chamberlain. Not because of how good he was with money, although there isn't any mention to him being good or bad with it, which I would take as a good thing. But I bring him up because he took everything he did in his life...

    Another athlete proves it doesn't matter...

    Cool story! Not true. Ricky Williams is a perfect example. You don't know this. This is a common belief maintained by most of society. Proof? I would like to believe this too. There are many this is true for, but there are many others just like JaMarcus Russell who are just naturally gifted...

    This will forever change you - very powerful and not for the weak!

    The book that this is all in reference to is "Think and Grow Rich" by Napolean Hill. The book was originally written in the 1930's just after the great depression. They have since done a few adaptations and updated some of the content in it with the new editions they have done. It is definitely...

    Another athlete proves it doesn't matter...

    This is a good point. I agree with everything said from before and I can't even fathom how you could lose that much money, but these guys have a drive that is somewhat uncommon. I would not be surprised if these athletes and stars that take these things to "higher levels" would be back to...

    Success story, this guy made the dream

    EXECUTION 
    It's wild how it seems that easy and simple. That is the model I am after. I am sure after he did all of this and made it, he just automated it so that this little income machine keeps bringing him in money.

    Success story, this guy made the dream

    EXECUTION 
    This is an account of how this guy made a successful online business. This is my dream, having an automated money-maker bringing in the green while you are somewhat passive. http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/blog/2013/10/28/business-mentorship-and-muses/#more-10250

    Balance the stress and future? (How do you balance it?)

    MINDSET 
    The way I see it, if I want the best life has to offer, I have to be best the best. This means the best man I can be, the best entrepreneur, the best friend. Why wouldn't I strive to be better at all of these things than I was yesterday. I think it is the 80/20 rule. 80% of people live an...

    Back to work

    Exactly! There is a few organizations I might be able to get a job at. What they will want is someone that wants to work their way up from the bottom. If that is a sacrifice I have to make and then get back to my entrepreneurial dreams thats what I have to do. There is no comfort in that for...
