    How do I go from a wish to burning desire?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    OP is here......I've been working 7 days a week recently. (10-12 hour days) Seriously, thanks for all the great responses. There's a ton of good stuff to read and re-read. A few responses eluded to the fact that I didn't want it badly enough, here's my rebuttal. So many times I've been F*cked...

    Guidance required for using License of other brands

    Its all good. Its actually an existing product with strong sales. I'm basically taking an existing product and applying different licenses to it.

    Guidance required for using License of other brands

    I'm not sure companies would take to me kindly if I use their license without their approval.......even if I can show interest.

    Guidance required for using License of other brands

    I want to use the license of various companies(WWE, Disney etc) on an existing product. I'm thinking of two scenarios I could go, but a little guidance would be appreciated. 1)Try contact the companies and request me using their license. I imagine this would be a huuuuge uphill battle and they...

    2017: I've Burned the Ships. So We Move Forward.

    EXECUTION 
    Just giving my 2 cents. You have tons of trading experience and couple hundred grand to play with. Why don't you day trade from home? Lots of stocks are up 20% over the past year. It just seems like a real waste of your talent you've built up.

    How do I go from a wish to burning desire?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Thanks for all the great responses. Lots of food for thought and ideas to try get on track. Really do appreciate all the help! I know pain works......reminds me of a company I use to work for. The owner got fired from his job and it affected him deeply. He would've been happy working a job...

    How do I go from a wish to burning desire?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    That might work, I might have to try that. Its so obscure for most people to make serious money, if I wanted a bigger fire I know EXACTLY how to achieve it. But I'm pleading to my mind: "Please for f*cksakes just increase my desire already!"

    How do I go from a wish to burning desire?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Been doing a lot of searching and think I found whats been holding me back......I don't have a burning desire for something. Its frustrating me because I want a better life (money freedom etc etc) Logically I want it, but emotionally i'm indifferent. It doesn't make sense to me. I don't enjoy...

    Idea to Break into snow removal or increase market share.

    IDEA 
    I'm not sure how, but they have their calculation down pat. Maybe there's a ton of competition out here(North East) Seems there is an opening in your area for someone to charge a flat fee then. BTW, were supposed to get another 6 inches or so.

    Idea to Break into snow removal or increase market share.

    IDEA 
    Interesting. We pay a flat fee for the whole season......no matter how much it snows or how many times they pass. I pay about $250 CAD They do an excellent job and my drive way is plowed before I leave in the morning, and before I come home at night.

    Idea to Break into snow removal or increase market share.

    IDEA 
    They don't offer it in my area, otherwise I would use the service.I guess there isn't enough competition. BTW, Remarkable work on your business!! I'm about half way reading your thread and I have to say its very inspiring. Even though it takes a lot of work to find products to sell, you...

    Idea to Break into snow removal or increase market share.

    IDEA 
    Just thought of this after we got dumped with freezing rain! No snow removal company in my area offers driveway salting after a freezing rain storm. This is a great way for an existing company to increase revenue/market share or for someone new to break into the market. You could offer it as a...

    Back on track after first failure / How do you guys deal with failure

    HOT! FTE 
    Learn whatever you can form it. As long as your mental state is positive, you will see it's a good thing it actually happened the way it did. Even if you can't right now, just have faith that its for the best and in a few years from now you'll be grateful for the way it went down.

    Multiple failure here! (9 times, but who's counting :P)

    INTRO 
    Just trying to make money where I perceive an opportunity. By heart I'm an inventor, but eventually realised its better to invent after you made your millions. Thanks for the feedback though, it helps to see how an outsider(not business partner) views your track record. I'm reading the thread...
