    Are You Weak? This Exercise Will Show You

    HOT! MINDSET 
    This is all true - the whole post is great. But how many of us are selling discomfort? There's no market for it on a large scale. Instead we're likely all selling the opposite. Everyone on here is looking for that little pain point to fix. The big pain points were taken care-of decades ago...

    Proofreading/Editing - Outsource? Software?

    Didn't want this to fall off the page. Anyone here use an editor or proofreader for online content? Thanks!

    Hi, I'm James, trying to find how do not chase only money.

    Hi M - the answer to your question is in Chapter 28 of Unscripted - "Meaning-and-Purpose". Read it again, with a highlighter/pen. These are your "core reasons" for doing what you do. There's a ton of great advise here, but I think you first need to find your "why". Without it you'll be...

    Proofreading/Editing - Outsource? Software?

    Curious how many of you utilize a proofreader or a line editor for your online content. And I am talking about editing/proofreading, not ghostwriting or anything (yet). First, is it software (e.g., Grammarly) or a person? Did you find them on Upwork or Freelance or another site? How do you...

    This is important. Don't own a solid black suit unless you're a limo driver or a bouncer.

    How to create monetary wealth in just 5 years. (Or less!)

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    For those who were not at the summit, MJ gave an in-depth presentation on his equation. And what I realized - which should have been obvious - is that your whole life is an equation. All your goals can break down in a similar way. When I decided to lose weight, I looked at my equation. It...

    Dressing For Success... Stop looking like a fool.

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    Let's take these comments in a different direction. First - the suit fits great. It may not be the highest quality, but you did very important things. For example, most guys have suit coat sleeves to their thumb - you have about a half-inch of dress shirt peeking-out. Perfect. The shirt...

    Dressing For Success... Stop looking like a fool.

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    Great thread, @Kak I couldn't agree more on appropriate attire. I setup an appointment to meet with a guy for some design work. When I got to his office, he was wearing an old hooded sweatshirt, smelled like cigarettes, and hadn't shaved in days. Nice guy, but I knew right then it wasn't...

    This is what 60 Pounds (27 KGS) Looks Like

    GOLD! 
    Truth. How I ignored this for so long is beyond me. So I'd add: ...Wearing the same clothes all the time because you hate shopping. Realizing you spend hundreds of dollars per month on sh*t food. Waking-up your significant other with your snoring. Sweating. Eating so much that you wake-up...

    Your progress is amazing. Not sure if you've had to buy new clothes yet but that's a great feeling and the new, tighter fitting clothes make you want to keep dropping pounds. On the hospital (not that you asked), I'm a big proponent of enjoying a 9-5. I've said it here a dozen times that I...

    Quit my job

    EXECUTION 
    This is going to sound stupid, but I realized I wasn't a morning person because I was screwing-up my process the night before. I'd watch TV or sit on my phone until late. Now I go to bed early and so getting-up early isn't a challenge when I still get 6.5-7 hours of sleep.

    Quit my job

    EXECUTION 
    Good luck! Not that you asked, but I used to face a similar challenge. I worked all day, came home to the family, and was beat in the evening with no creative juice left. So I flipped my entire day. I started getting-up early - like 4:30. I walk the dog, get in a work-out, and then put in a...

    Bumping this thread to check-in on everyone. I wish I had something concrete to report but I'm just....grinding. It's funny - when you're in the trenches there's not much to say. Business is running, body weight is dropping - everything fell into place after the summit. Losing weight and...

    Advice: Has Anyone Groomed Themselves to Enter The American Elite?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I really like "Kiss, Bow, or Shake Hands". Yes it's primarily a sales book, but mostly it teaches you to be mindful no matter where you are on the planet.

    Was listening to an interview of Jerry Murrell, the founder of Five Guys. He was talking about how he still likes to sit on his porch and eat cold baked beans out of the can. Just be who you are.

    What do You do to assure peak performance?

    It's funny how people can be exact opposites (for good reasons) and still probably outwardly represent a similar level of motivation and health. For example. -I can't have my phone in my room or when my mind is racing, I'll open it to write myself notes (the backlight then wakes me up and I...
