    You sir, are a god for that link. I could not find that book anywhere. It's like a rare bird.

    Awesome! You're making moves. My brother is 12 and he's doing the same thing with candy. Those have a pretty great profit margin and everyone LOVES candy. Be careful though! You're too young for any serious consequences but I can guarantee you it's not allowed. Just stay under the radar.

    Why I'm Dropping Out Of College

    EXECUTION 
    There's no room for ego here. I won't lie. 100% I feel like a badass when I tell my friends I dropped out of college. 100% I feel like a badass when I tell people I'm an MMA instructor. But I don't want to be a badass. I want to be successful. Then I want to be a badass. Ego only pollutes my...

    Why I'm Dropping Out Of College

    EXECUTION 
    I will definitely start looking into it then. I hear Amazon is a lot less lenient with service. They expect nothing but the best. So when I am confident that I can be a professional seller, I will switch over. I am still learning a lot with eBay. God, the most obvious things I was clueless...

    Why I'm Dropping Out Of College

    EXECUTION 
    While I agree, I have a question. How do you know why something isn't working? If it is some error of my own, then I can change it and adapt to make it work. If I look for alternatives too soon, then I'll keep switching instead of overcoming the speed bumps.

    Why I'm Dropping Out Of College

    EXECUTION 
    I'd love to, however two main reasons I cant: 1) It'll cost an immense amount of investment on my part. Between lease agreements, equipment purchases, water and power, etc. I simply don't have that kind of money at the moment. 2)It'll absolutely tie me down to the business. I've found that most...

    When we relocate, I hope to make an equity deal in which I can benefit from more members. As of now, I am just an employee.

    Why I'm Dropping Out Of College

    EXECUTION 
    I'm lucky in that money is not an issue. My grandmother saved me enough money for college that I could pursue a degree from most UC schools and not get into debt. So class costs are covered, should I pursue the A.A. God she'd have a heart attack if she found out what I did. :D I may be able to...

    Why I'm Dropping Out Of College

    EXECUTION 
    I was thinking about going on Amazon, but I have dedicated so much time to figuring out eBay that I stubbornly want to make it work. I have to find what I'm doing wrong here. Would you suggest switching over to Amazon before I get too deep into the eBay game?

    Progress Update 2: Solid Plans I am grinding. I've been waking up between 3:30 and 5 AM for the last couple weeks. Yes, even while I was in school. Now with a good chunk of "free time" it's easy to waste it. I'd consider myself very disciplined, but you can't argue with human nature. You...

    Why I'm Dropping Out Of College

    EXECUTION 
    There was no explosive "Get out of this house!" reaction. Luckily my parents are very understanding. However my mother insists that I at least get an A.A. degree from my Community college. I looked up the requirements and found that I would have to complete 5 more classes (16 more units) and to...

    Progress Update 1: Drop That Bitch On Her Head Like Bang I dropped all my classes today. This was after I went into my 8:30 AM accounting class this morning. Sat through the lecture. The topic was F.O.B. (Free on Board) for shipping products. Interesting... I learned about this when starting...

    EXECUTION 
    Thank you. I can't say I'm looking forward to the pain, but I can say that I'm looking forward to moving in a direction that directly relates to my goals. As opposed to spending hours differentiating between types of instrument tones for a Gen Ed music class.

    Why I'm Dropping Out Of College

    EXECUTION 
    Completely agreed. The flashy cars and homes are the event. The grind and the process is what makes them. I understand this. As it is, I am loving it. But maybe this isn't even close to how hard the grind will become... As I see it, I'm like a baby deer. Wobbly legged and barely able to stay...

    That's it. I'm done. I can't take sitting in class any longer. It's trash. Classes are trash. The system is trash. All for some useless trash degree. "Yeah but you NEED a degree to be successful in life" my friends tell me... You need it in order to get hired by someone ( But do I need one...

    Buy a float tank. Change your life.

    NOTABLE! 
    So I did my first float session about a week ago, before I left for the Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas. It was 75 minutes. They instruct several of the things mentioned here. Firstly everyone was briefed beforehand in a group and then went to their own rooms. Everyone needs to take a shower...

    Buy a float tank. Change your life.

    NOTABLE! 
    I have been into meditation on and off for the last couple years and it's had amazing benefits. It has made me more positive in the way I perceive things and it's almost like I never encounter particularly negative people. It's taught me to see life as a game and I feel like a more authentic...
