    What I learnt from an uncle who won the lottery

    MINDSET 
    Actually they are the same. Exactly the same skills and learning curve involved. People just think investing is easier because there is no barrier to entry with investing.

    How do you get REAL HONEST reviews for your eBook?

    PUBLISHING 
    The first book we released, we went to LibraryThing.com and ran a free giveaway for a week. 23 people requested review copies of the book and 3 left reviews (4 and 5 star). Not a tremendous success, but 3 reviews is a lot better than 0. ;)

    Becoming a self-employed copywriter

    PUBLISHING 
    I have a simple project for the OP if you want to do your first job for a good reference, we can run it through oDesk if you like. It's for a Kindle book that I'm about to release. PM me if interested.

    Techniques for uncovering unconcious money beliefs (and changing them!)?

    MINDSET 
    Self examination using ruthless honesty is a very worthwhile activity. But it is like dessert, don't let it take the place of the main meal - doing the work to move forward towards your goals every day.

    Hello from Denver - self publishing success

    GOLD! 
    I'm just about finished my first non-fiction book, inspired by this thread. Your question got me thinking, I have a good group of friends that support each other in email and skype for my eBiz, anyone into an accountability and peer to peer mentoring group for writers?

    eBook Ads?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Back in the day, when SEO was new, and probably still going on a lot these days, people would pay to put their link at the bottom of a Wordpress theme. Same thing would work for Kindle books. You pay me and I'll put a link to your (hopefully related) website in the Foreword of my book, or drop...

    a forex experiment

    INVESTING 
    Trader's don't guess, they have statistically verified edges. Just like a casino doesn't guess that their games are profitable. Anyways, if you're reading Van Tharp, you're on the right road. I just didn't want you thinking trading was a get rich quick thing. Good fortune to you!

    INVESTING 
    Those numbers and charts will look A LOT different when you add in spreads and slippage. There is no easy way to make money trading, except by selling products to people who want to believe there is an easy way to make money trading ;) It is a performance career like being a professional...

    The Secret

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Ha, well I have to confess, I'm playing devils advocate a little bit here. I know that it takes the 20,000 hours to get to success, but I also did, with my first run at the fastlane with affiliate marketing, spend A LOT of hours of action taking, without really knowing where I was going, and it...

    Money Makes you Happier

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Happiness has levels. On the surface level, money absolutely buys happiness. The deeper you go into yourself, the less your happiness is affected by your circumstances. Money won't buy you deathbed happiness.

    The Secret

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Uh, ya, but if you look at the front side of the word: Attract--ion ... it is a passive word. It comes from realizing that our power needs to be aligned before action will be fruitful. We are human BEings, not human DOings. Doing and taking action makes you feel in control, it gives you hope...

    The Secret

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I agree, that The Secret was pablum, it was a "sell people what they want to hear" marketing gimmick. What got me riled up was the whole "take action" thing, as if the LoA and taking action are somehow mutually exclusive. People who are exploring The Secret and LoA are not all lazy, some of...

    The Secret

    HOT! MINDSET 
    One thing that really Pisses me Off is every time someone mentions the Secret or the Law of Attraction on this forum, they get run out of town. All of MJ's fanboys mis-interpret what he was saying in his book and get all militant about "take action!" The Law of Attraction, isn't about not...

    The Secret

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Human beings have as part of our minds the absolute freakin' need to be right. Our brains are genetically wired to seek out evidence that supports the thoughts and feelings that role around in our heads all day. Whatever the dominant thought and feeling is in our head, we WILL find evidence of...

    James, a lot of your advice and many of the amazing stories from your life, involve considerable amounts of chutzpah. How does a shy person develop that quality?

    Great tips, thank you. A follow up question. I like to write about trading/investing/finance, self help (probably the area where I can give the most value) and raw/vegan foods (I healed myself of a pretty serious illness by changing my diet). The problem is the diversity, should I write...
