    Help! How to overcome the fear of the "anti-customer"?

    MINDSET 
    Interesting philosophy! Might sound a bit harsh. But in a storm of semi-religious anti-capitalism rhetoric it's good to have something equally "transcendent" or "meta" to shout back at them (or to internally strengthen the own mind).

    Thanks for the reinforcement. Good to hear that it's not always the case!

    Help! How to overcome the fear of the "anti-customer"?

    MINDSET 
    Thank you Paul for your thoughts. I have to say in hindsight I pretty much had a rather naive "we are family" mindset where everyone strives to make society better except maybe a couple of a-holes at the top of politics. I probably grew up pretty sheltered, but also that's what the culturally...

    Help! How to overcome the fear of the "anti-customer"?

    MINDSET 
    No doubt about that! You're absolutely correct. But what broke my spirit was not the haters. I had those from the beginning. What broke my spirit was that as soon as I was asking for donations (when I was eventually demonitized on YT) there were generous people who financed the channel but there...

    Help! How to overcome the fear of the "anti-customer"?

    Hi Heavy industry, in Germany we don't really have a free market. One part of Germany has been Socialism, the other part "social market economy" which is just one step away from "democratic socialism". And now the government is started to set fixed prices on energy, so we're slipping more and...

    Hi Fox, very helpful too. Thank you! I think you have a point in me being complicit by choosing this market. I didn't know better. And honestly A LOT of people in Germany have this scarcity mindset especially in the former GDR where I was born and am living. Maybe I just need the confirmation...

    Hi Black Dragon, thank you! As "rude" as that seems this helps me. Because I was already tending towards this mindset but I was hesitant because I didn't want to be wrong and be the a**hole. But I was battered so heavily in my last endeavor that this is basically the only option. Thank you!

    Help! How to overcome the fear of the "anti-customer"?

    MINDSET 
    I have a problem which can either be external (real) or internal (mindset): the fear of the anti-customer. And I don't know which it is or how I can overcome it. Basically I've had a semi-entrepreneurial endeavor between 2015 and 2020 as a Youtuber in Germany (almost 100K subs). Before that I...

    Partnerships: How do I negotiate smart percentages?

    PEOPLE QUESTION 
    Valuable warning. Thank you. Reminds me of old school days when you have people in "group work" solely relying on others to do the work. Of course I was always the work horse. FRIEND2 will definitely contribute a lot. He deserves it without a doubt. And as he worked underpaid for almost 3 years...

    Partnerships: How do I negotiate smart percentages?

    PEOPLE QUESTION 
    Thanks again, good advice! A little clarification first however, I would always keep more than 51% to myself. There's no "splitting decisions" and stuff. I've learnt in a lot of contexts that this basically never works. I thought about splitting 10 non-veto percent among these three and give a...

    Partnerships: How do I negotiate smart percentages?

    PEOPLE QUESTION 
    Thank you. Well it's pretty difficult to run a whole platform on your own. Especially FRIEND1 has half of the knowledge regarding our first project which we could recycle here. I would at least need HIM to realize the project which I have in mind. Maybe I'm thinking a bit too complicated that...

    Partnerships: How do I negotiate smart percentages?

    PEOPLE QUESTION 
    Hi guys, I have a question about partnerships. I have a business that I'm probably retiring (not important but you can read more in this post) and I'm already working on a new idea. I'm developing ideas with FRIEND1 and am trying to get FRIEND2 and maybe FRIEND3 to join as developers. FRIEND1...

    DUMP PROJECT and start all over?

    QUESTION 
    Thank you. Yes, I've read the book. That's why I'm here, to get some direction. Because I feel I'm "close and yet far away" if that makes sense. Basically I haven't planned the "journey to the first happy paying customer" before I started. And now it feels a bit like I'm shoe-horning in some...
