    STOP Cheating Yourself and Earn What You're Worth!

    GOLD! HOT! NEWSLETTER 
    @MJ DeMarco I am wondering about the following: which grade on grademybusinessidea.com do you think a business idea should have in order to justify quitting a stable, reasonably well-paying job?

    Which job should you pursue until you can live from entrepreneurship

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    One other option could be to work a very easy job that just hardly keeps you afloat. Think anything similar to what a student would do (20 hours per week at a bookshop or something like that). In this way you'll have plenty of time and energy left to work on your business.

    "New Study Destroys Malcolm Gladwell's 10,000 Hour Rule"

    MINDSET 
    "Range" by David Epstein is an interesting read on this topic. Essentially, the author argues that the 10,000 hour rule only applies for fields where there is a very specific set of rules. Think chess, classical music, tennis and so on an so forth. The less specific the set of rules becomes...

    I would delete the men's room section. I do understand where you were coming from by trying to limit these kinds of discussions to a specific section. However, I feel like creating that section has in fact encouraged people to write more about this kind of "men talk" to the point where the...

    What’s your Meaning of Life?

    MINDSET 
    Share my ideas through writing, live a calm and peaceful life, spend time with the loved ones, experience nature. I no longer feel the obligation to make a huge impact or accumulate a lot of wealth or whatever. A peaceful life where I can make a little difference for a few people through my...

    Well, then you've just answered your own question ;)

    Should I Get A Job Or Freelance?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    And why is that? As an employee, you work full time for one client. As a freelancer, you split your time between a bunch of clients. There is nothing inherently better with being a freelancer. Both trade their time for money.

    Should I Get A Job Or Freelance?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Alice: Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here? The Cheshire Cat: That depends a good deal on where you want to get to. Alice: I don't much care where. The Cheshire Cat: Then it doesn't much matter which way you go

    In my opinion, videos are the best way to get new customers into the email list. What do you think?

    MARKETING 
    Like with all things, it depends... For certain products, target audiences etc. video can be a fantastic channel. But again, that depends on many factors. Generally, I would follow this priniciple: you try different channels, see what works best, and then invest your resources into that channel.

    Lol. Nice simile. Monogamy in business... :rofl:

    Slight depression/bore moving from working IN the business to ON the business

    MINDSET 
    This is very common: coming from a technical background spending most of your time doing something you know and enjoy towards doing things you are inexperienced with and don't particularly enjoy. Gerber's "The E-Myth" should be helpful.

    Why does everyone want to get there so fast?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    This. Reminds me of the quote: "Most people overestimate what can be done in a year and underestimate what can be done in 10 years". Slow, steady and continous growth over time leads to the most powerful results. Rushing forward while being fear-driven isn't the way forward. Focusing on the...
