    MorningRod - What do you think about my invention?

    HOT! 
    @danielfrenkel Great execution! Personally, I would buy this and considered purchasing AXIS, but the cost seemed too high. Let the market decide. There's a huge and growing market for biohackers and sleep optimization. You can easily find this market and advertise to them. Plenty of...

    A Complete Meal in a Bag of Chips? Is my idea a flop?

    NOTABLE! IDEA 
    @juanalou How did your pre-orders go and where did you drive the traffic from? Who is your initial target market? Beautiful packaging and website. Who designed this for you? Best of luck! Looking forward to seeing the update.

    Entrepreneurship Anxiety

    HOT! MINDSET 
    @Scot I'm glad you made this thread because this is something I encounter occasionally. The Bezos video resonated with me. I think a lot of my stress/anxiety comes from lack of progress. If its something that's in my control and I'm not doing anything about it, I get stressed out. Most likely...

    Food business/entrepreneurship startup guide

    NOTABLE! 
    Thanks @G-Man @MidwestLandlord. I wasn't aware of that. Fortunately, I'm going the good-for-you specialty food route made with all-natural ingredients so that shouldn't be an issue.

    Food business/entrepreneurship startup guide

    NOTABLE! 
    Healthy, limited ingredients, transparency are becoming the norm. It is almost getting to the point where this is expected of products. As I mentioned above, I think it's better to start with the market you're trying to serve and fill a need. This could be a specific diet, allergen...

    Food business/entrepreneurship startup guide

    NOTABLE! 
    @Scot Thanks for putting this guide together - very helpful! I've been doing a lot of due diligence in the food space and need to decide on the route I'm going to go. Great to see another person diving into the food space. You make a very good point on focusing on category trends, not product...

    10 Life Lessons From A Navy Seal

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I can't believe I've never come across this before. Just read it and it got me so fired up. All it takes is flipping the switch in your mind to Love the Pain... Embrace the Suck. Remind yourself that the pain and shit you're going through is both expected and there to toughen you up. You're...

    If You Were A Moderator

    HOT! 
    Here are my suggestions: When a new member joins, they should be required to make an introduction by answering specific questions via a questionnaire (not sure if the software has this feature). These questions will help filter out those who are serious about being a part of this community and...

    INTRO 
    @captainnyc Welcome, but that wasn't much of an introduction. I'm going to challenge you with a few questions because I think these are some things you should ask yourself and try to answer for yourself... Why did you join this forum? What are you looking to get out of it? Why did you create...

    Find the Best Content: Introducing Most Liked Posts

    IMPORTANT! 
    While I was trying to use the feature today, one thing I noticed is that after the Most Liked posts are reordered, the date/timepost on the upper left hand corner gets screwed up and makes every post the date of the 1st post in the thread. It probably doesn't matter for normal threads, but it'd...
