    MINDSET 
    what I do when I have crazy times and really need to deliver fast something in a very short period of time 45 minutes work followed by 15 minutes power nap. feed time every 6-8 cycles.

    What book are you reading? Right now. Post up!

    NOTABLE! HOT! BOOKS CHAT 
    Some books are very concentrated, MJ's in particular, requires multiple passes through. In fact what I usually do is I do audio version first.... at the end, if I think it's a good one, I do audio again, then buy the book. And go again and again.... The most interesting part (for me) is to try...

    I got stuck with my idea because it seems really difficult.

    IDEA ASSERTION 
    Focus! Start digging. Talk to more people, gather more information. Draft a potential plan and necessaries, then, start putting the ducks in a row, one by one. After a few weeks of obsessing on the subject you will have a far better understanding of what it takes to have it done.

    Existing service business building out an e-commerce store

    IDEA 
    Search for a local web guy that can help you out adding an online ordering system to your existing website. It's not exactly a rocketscience. As long as you know the biz, what to rent, where and when, this takes a little planing and then the execution. Shouldn't cost more than $3-4K and then...

    Debating the Value of Subscription-Based Lead Services: Opinions Needed!

    MINDSET FEEDBACK 
    The client for this hypothetical service is the vendor (vendor is the paying subscriber), the lead is provided to these vendors based on what the market needs.

    Realtors' Rolodex: Sharing or Keeping Contacts of Pros?

    IDEA 
    Realtors, I'm curious, how do you guys handle finding people for different jobs, like cleaning or repairs, when you're listing a property? Do you have a go-to list of pros for that sort of thing? And if you're just starting out or don't have a list, how do you find someone reliable? For those...
