    MINDSET 
    Does anyone want me to expand on this topic? I can share a lot, but don't want to write for no reason.

    Flow! Most Efficient State of Learning!

    Interesting...I haven't seen flow in regards to learning before--only concerning work. An artist is in flow when they're painting and they love it. A writer experiences flow when they're really into their project. One of the programs I took was a 2-year technical diploma in operations...

    Account manager

    PEOPLE 
    First you need to know what you want. Hunter vs farmer. Hunter goes and gets new business, farmer works existing accounts to get them involved in more and greater services. The temperament and skillset of each is very different. Account manager is a term most often used for a farmer. We'd want...

    4 Ways to Be a Better Closer

    MINDSET 
    Closing is great, but if you can't even start a conversation off right there IS NO rest of the call or talk. Sales is a process, the close is the event. People see the event and don't understand there's a process behind it. You are not going to become a great salesperson by studying closing...

    Aggressive And Unsolicited "advice" from LIFELONG "Sidewalkian" drones!

    You run into this in internet marketing all the time. And here's the kicker: when you DO achieve success, and have the cash...they STILL HATE your guts for doing something different than they did and winning! You cannot please them. Since you say you can't cut them out, your option is "Good...

    Just gave away my first copy of Fastlane

    Good for you for DOING! I have been recommending the book to my friends, including sending the amazon link to one this morning after a phone call. The nice medium-term thing that could happen is you have a small group of like-minded people, all understanding these concepts and reinforcing one...

    How do I begin as a freelance trainer/public speaker/coach?

    SPEEDWAY 
    DennisDuty has some very good advice. So you say to the world you're a speaker. The world ignores you. But get content out there proving that you are...and Bingo! It takes you at face value. I have a friendly competitor in my field who has a video of himself presenting to a big crowd, and he...

    How charities can be used to create more power/influence/money/repuatation

    @5holiday, I agree that membership in such organizations will cause others to see you in a different light. The non-commercial perception can be very helpful. I am going to indulge in some free-flowing thought here: The core beliefs of any organization are the most important qualities about...

    STFU and take advice!

    SPEEDWAY 
    What we have here is very common and frequently encountered on forums. Others above have recognized it for what it is: the need for approval. What we can do to counter it is ask the uncomfortable question: "I'm glad to help you if I can. Before we start, can I ask you a question?" (Sure.) "Are...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Call me dumb, but how do we put the image that we've read it into our profile? I googled it and found the image url, but what field does it go into? Thanks!

    Circle of Competence

    MINDSET 
    An issue I have with sticking exclusively with this kind of thinking is: Without change, we don't grow. Without moving outside of our comfort zone, we don't get different results. Want to get rich? Move well outside of your comfort zone. It's what's been keeping you where you are. Things are...

    7 Cardinal Rules in Life

    MINDSET 
    The main message is: Let go of your past. It has nothing to serve you with except the knowledge of what didn't work. But that was then, and this is now, so maybe it'll work today. Stop blaming other people for your failures, your lack of opportunity, etc. YOU are responsible for your results...

    6 Harsh Truths that Will Make you a Better Person

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Note especially the quoted point in the OP that says how people miss the process in search of the event--"how can I get a job?" instead of "how can I become more like the type of person employers want to hire?" How can I become more like a successful entrepreneur? Here's mine, thanks to...

    joschi`s crossroads

    Hi Joschi, From your reading of Think And Grow Rich, did you write down a detailed plan? Reading is a good pastime; however, you also need to apply what you learn. We can "fact find" forever, especially if we don't have a specific goal. This is called "analysis paralysis". Find your target...

    For beginners: the GEP method

    Your goal is great, but be careful about what you hear, see and read in the media. Just because someone gave their opinion on tv or on a website doesn't make it true or correct. Make sure you understand the concepts yourself, so you can test what they are saying against your own analysis...

    Entrepreneurship and Life - What I have learned from Mj and the forum

    I agree about the OP especially about the "addiction" to the art of entrepreneurship. I had run my own copywriting and business turnaround consultancies about a decade ago...but never with the level of fierce interest that I've had with my online business over the past couple of years. I spend...

    What You Wish You Knew Back Then?

    You have a lot of power at your age, especially over your future. Much more than you probably believe right now. You have the time now to do information interviews, and find out what kind of tasks you enjoy doing. Find people in fields you're interested in and call them up. Ask to meet with...

    Need Advice on Selling Information Online

    I agree. This doesn't sound like a clickbank product. It sounds like a high-end, corporate product you should be selling for $997 or $1997. Maybe you were thinking more? Could be. Part of the marketing I would use if I were in your shoes is "How much does hiring the wrong person cost you?" and...
