    just a little rant

    MINDSET 
    Definitely. I wouldn't bother wasting time offering advice to people who don't want it or wasting energy getting annoyed by small minded people. In the end that's time better spent working on what you have to do for you.

    just a little rant

    MINDSET 
    Makes me think of another point. It's tough to explain to people what you're working on when they ask questions about what you're doing with yourself because they either don't understand or don't care. So I don't even bother discussing my work except with a few select individuals and even...

    PUBLISHING 
    I just finished my first ebook tonight, yay! It's been a few months in the making and had a ton of rewrites. It's short (5000 words) and is going to be given away for free. I am starting a retail business using FBA, but have a website being constructed that will attract the type of people...

    When was the last time...

    HOT! 
    I think the last time was January 1 st 2015. The New Year's Eve festivities got a little bit more turned up than anticipated and the following day sodium bloat and densely caloric food was needed for recovery. Plus somehow someone gave me a ten dollar gift card for the place. Funny though...

    27 Timeless Pearls of Wisdom from a Legendary Marketer (Must-Read Brilliant Fastlane Advice)

    MINDSET 
    Number 3 reminds me of the book e-myth. Love that one. This Steve Jobs quote came to mind on number 2 "People think focus means saying yes to the thing you've got to focus on. But that's not what it means at all. It means saying no to the hundred other good ideas that there are. You have to...

    Hey buddy, I won't be too long since I'm writing on my mobile. I started my "business" with personal training as well. I got super busy and hired trainers to do my job. We expended fast, but as soon as I started educating myself about business I realized that it was a dead end since most of the...

    Yes, I already talked to the supplier, it's about a 17% increase in price if they were to bag the items in the bags they supply. I can do it for ~20-40 bucks buying 500 ziplock bags on amazon that match the product size. If/when the product begins to sell in higher quantities that may be a...

    Should I keep watching TV?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I have a very hard time watching TV. It's very low on the scale of important things and anytime I flip the television on something pops in my head that needs to be done for my business, my apartment, my personal life and I just stop watching or leave it on in the background. An observation on...

    So I was able to bust through some serious writers block this past weekend. I took a trip out to Palm Desert where my girlfriend lives. I had flight with a connection in Salt Lake City on the way in, and Phoenix on the way out. Total travel time from JFK to John Wayne Airport was around 6.5-7...

    I quit!

    Hmm I think I've noticed over the past few years that most people want instant gratification and run when things get difficult. The simple concept of your actions today paving the way for the future is lost by many. Also many people fail to realize if they're not in the place they want to be...

    Ebook - I am getting a bit frustrated with the edits, but will power through. I have a 6 hour flight to California Friday and plan to tackle the chapter that has been giving me the most grief. I've literally wrote it 5 times and scrapped every single one. I think the current draft I began...

    In a fierce battle with my greatest enemy

    MINDSET 
    I've found that lack of focus, lack of commitment, lack of follow through, anything you want to call it, the habits that hinder your upward movement carry over into all facets of your life. The biggest thing that has helped spring me forward and keeps doing so, is bringing focus, commitment...

    That's definitely the plan. I want to make a lot more than that. However, exercise has taught me something that's been helping me with business and life. Aim high, but don't forget that the consistent achievement of small goals is what leads up to the achievement of mid range and large goals...
