    Action-faked back to a job

    INTRO 
    Hey thanks for this. I needed it. I don't mind you giving me hard advice either so you being truthful to me means a lot. Definitely going to be pushing myself outside of my comfort zone. I just been in it too long and now I'm just stagnant (which I think is worse than pain). I will be...

    Bought most of your courses. going to dig through them right away. I'm probably going to look outside of upwork as well so I followed your previous advice of taking on Start a Freelance and then going into Upwork Interviews and Advanced Proposals I and II

    Exactly my thoughts. Get in the customer's face without much pressure. Just be curious about their work and pick their brain about their industry. Find the pains, see if I can fix the problems or how difficult it is, CENTS the thing (chances are there are mostly low 'Entry' barriers which...

    Basically my posts on this thread is going to be a failure diary to who-knows-where-I'll-end-up. Small update: Finally bit the bullet and decided to work Home Depot as a minimum wage job mainly for benefits and trying to find out what I want to do. I figured going to the Daymond John route...

    For the ones who HATE Coding.

    MINDSET 
    Pay attention to the goal and what you want to become. The clearer your vision, the easier your decisions (NOT easy, just easier). If you can't imagine yourself coding to be a millionaire, don't do it. That doesn't mean you can't have a software company, you just have a different role. Just...

    Whoa! MJ! Thanks! You don't know how your words mean a lot to me. I can't say enough how I admire all your wisdom and the INFINITE ways you've helped so many people. Truth is, I found TMF 3 years ago, put notes all over it, dog-eared bunch of pages and knew this was truth. My distraction got...

    Thank you. I am just realizing that as much as I want the path of least resistance and "engineer" my way to try to cut the fat, that life isn't going to be so easy for me. I'm definitely going to have to take my licks, learn the hard way. I am keep in mind all the time that Muhammad Ali, the...

    Just FYI, For Civil Engineering field, in order to own a company, I need to have a Professional Engineer's license (PE). In order to get a PE, I'd have to get a sponsor other PEs (I left the company) and study at least 2-3 years for the PE exam. Even if I get my PE, the risk-reward is very...

    MARKETING MINDSET 
    I apologize if there is a similar discussion to this and will link if I find anything. This might be taboo or even shooting myself in the foot for bringing this up or just straight being ignorant. I've had a struggle with digital marketing and more specifically copy-writing in certain ways...
