    AndyTalks to Random_0 about Growing a Local Lead Gen Business

    Thanks for a great talk. I've listened to it twice now and have had more and more thoughts every time. It's demonstrated to me how a service business can be truly Fastlane. I've understood the concept of divorcing income from time, but not quite how that can be applied to a service business...

    Need help changing my life..

    Have you tried meditation or hypnosis for your anxiety? I used to dismiss it all as woo-woo, but it's done wonders for me over the last few weeks. I wouldn't describe myself as having anxiety, but more a fear of failure that I didn't realise I had. There's loads of free ones on YouTube, here...

    And It's A Hello From Him

    INTRO 
    Hi, my name is Martin and I thought it was about time that I introduced myself. I'm from the UK, I've been lurking here since June and thought it's about time to start giving back. You'll have noticed me cropping up over the last week, or so, trying to help where I can. Before I discovered...

    Bizarrely (or worryingly!) I understood that, and I'm not even Scottish! Welcome to the forum millymay - there's so much good stuff here, it's unreal.

    Plant-Based Opportunities / Vegan Business Opportunities

    HOT! 
    Thank you for posting this information and highlighting the trend. I can see the potential for sure - in fact I was watching something on TV just the other week about some researchers in the Netherlands who were working on a process for turning vegetable protein into a meat substitute with a...

    A Cautionary Tale About eBay

    GOLD! 
    You have a point, I hadn't thought of that. Perhaps a whole range of sites targeted at specific niches will spring up and gradually erode ebay's traffic.

    Congratulations on all your progress so far. I know how it feels to have designed something, sent off a file and have parts come back. It's really freakin' cool.

    A Cautionary Tale About eBay

    GOLD! 
    Ebay lost the plot years ago. The only reason that they keep going is that there isn't a viable alternative in many markets. Others have come and gone and either ebay bought them, or they lost all their traffic to ebay, so the buyers and sellers deserted them. The only exception that I can...

    Hello and welcome! I'm new here as well, which reminds me that I should get on and do an introduction for myself.

    Am I right in thinking you've made 25% on the $2000 you've started with so far? If so, that's quite impressive. However, isn't day trading so risky that you stand to lose that 25% and more if you have a run of bad luck? Also, don't most people lose on day trading, including the professionals...

    One of the best pieces of text I had read. Please take the time to read it

    MINDSET 
    The anti-business propaganda has risen because of the treatment of employees by large corporations and as has been pointed out, all businesses are starting to be tarnished with the same brush to a certain extent. It doesn't help when you hear stories of people being forced into zero hours...

    Why I hate the podcast trend and watching Youtube

    MINDSET RANT 
    Following on from my previous post, I've just tried this: https://speech-to-text-demo.mybluemix.net/ It uses the IBM Watson system, you know, the one that won Jeopardy, so I thought it would be quite good. It was terrible! This is the result of uploading a clip of two people talking: How are...

    How can I Fastlane my current business?

    NOTABLE! 
    Wouldn't that work for the older appliances that are the mainstay of the shop/workshop side of your business? You could use them as training guides for someone to take over that part of your operations. That way you could maximise the use of your knowledge on the outside repairs and also...

    You're definitely right, but the Internet seems to magnify it somehow.

    Why I hate the podcast trend and watching Youtube

    MINDSET RANT 
    Whilst I can understand the OP's frustration with podcasts and You Tube, I personally find them quite useful. I've taken to listening to them when doing other tasks that don't require in depth concentration, to make the most of my time. I find that I can 'scan listen' to what's going on, then...

    SolarCity Solar Roof

    OFF-TOPIC 
    There's a German startup looking at Solar panel covered cars: http://www.treehugger.com/cars/crowdfunded-electric-car-integrates-solar-panels-self-charging.html They claim that these integrated panels give an extra 19 miles range, which can only increase as solar cells become more efficient...
