    I never knew how bad the system can screw someone until now

    HOT! 
    When we talk about systems in business we are referring to systematic actions, step by step procedures that are followed consistently to produce optimal results. They are basically checklists for employees, you need them otherwise they can steal from you or make silly mistakes that end up...

    Made my first dropshipping sale last night

    EXECUTION 
    Congratulations man! That is a great start =D I've done that, the profit margins were too low to depend on ads, so it'd net me very little, did more testing and math even if I was able to maximize my margins I'd be making very little, the volume I'd need to sell to get a respectable income...

    Buzzfeed: Tony Robbins accused of sexual misconduct

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Tony is a good guy he'll be fine. He's the biggest one on the industry so it's surprising he hasn't been seriously attacked yet. This was probably supposed to be an opening move so more / actual victims would come out, not an actual journalism piece. If nothing else surfaces he'll be fine and...

    How to force myself to do things?

    MINDSET 
    Atomic Habits by James Clear. It's really good too. Also Checklist Manifesto. Basically you want to form habits, and have checklists on the things you do daily. PS. Time is limited, so if you want to do X you may have to stop doing Y..

    Anybody reading fiction??

    HOT! 
    I mean there are different ways of selling, target audiences and all that. Sometimes alienating a few will end up getting more attention and conversions than being pleasant to everybody. Tolkien is important, I'm not arguing that, he did a lot of worldbuilding that's cool. It's also fair to say...

    I just recommended him in the comment above yours ;) He's so good, lightbringer is incredible, the cover on the first book is such a disservice. I'd have started it much sooner otherwise.

    Anybody reading fiction??

    I don't mean technology as in computers. I mean it in the sense of it building on past developments. For example Tolkien one of the important contributions from him was worldbuilding and it's applications, it's something that wasn't done that often and with that intensity, nowadays most good...

    Why Italian graduates are choosing life on the farm

    In general it isn't. I don't even know why you'd argue that organic can be more efficient or better for the environment.. It's like saying it's possible that the big foot exists, yeah technically, but believing it is still kind of silly. Google naturalistic fallacy. Organics is a bad fad...

    Why Italian graduates are choosing life on the farm

    Is that revenue or net? Seems average either way for 2 graduates, even if it's 4k each.. Organics are actually worse for the environment, and there's little to no evidence of it being healthier than normal production methods. If you care about the planet you'd actually avoid organic products...

    Anybody reading fiction??

    HOT! 
    You guys seem to read mostly old well known stuff that was important but not really that good compared to what we have today.. You can ask most writers, books today are better than they were in the past, standards are higher, writers are better, writing technology is better, editing is better...

    What is Elon Musk's Fastlane Forum?

    Generally you read science news stories / youtube channels. And also a broad understanding of science in general. Wait but why is good. Gizmodo. Engadget. New scientist. etc. Just be a curious person, be interested in science and technology, that's about it..

    How do you become a happy person?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Meditate for 5 mins a day with love sharing meditations from Jack Cornfield. That helps. Other than that make enough money to do what you want. Get more positive hobbies, like a sport, rock climbing, hiking, preferably something social. Do that and find new interests every 6 months to a year...

    Need to Start Somewhere

    EXECUTION 
    How comfortable do you think people would be with strange men coming into their homes, checking and messing with their smoke alarms, heaters, drains, filters ? I'd bet most women as you might expect would be pretty uncomfortable with strange, rough men coming into their houses for any reason. I...

    The "Did You Know?" Thread...

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Physics is so awesome we can tell the position of most galaxies based on the Cosmic microwave background. "The cosmic microwave background is electromagnetic radiation as a remnant from an early stage of the universe in Big Bang cosmology." Basically with an 'image' of the moment when light...

    Climate Change is the #1 Problem the World Faces

    HOT! 
    That had to be the dumbest scarcity tactic ever if the oil industry was behind it. The consequences of it were only negative for them, i.e people started looking for alternatives. You'd think if they were behind it, these findings would have been retracted after they noticed the unintended...

    When do you realize you are getting sold (Scammed)

    MINDSET 
    Anecdotal evidence doesn't equal disconfirming evidence.. I read Grant's book, and he tells you his entire life story and business career there, if based on that not at all impressive track record imho, you believe he's somebody worth learning from cool, I think differently though. He basically...

    I Hate the Idea of Being Equal!

    HOT! IDEA 
    Wouldn't it be nice if everybody was happy ? And nobody went hungry or felt sad ? Can't you see I'm a good person just because I said those things ? Those are platitudes, shallow people tend to spew them whenever they get the chance.. I don't like your take on truths though, we learn what's...

    How to Make the Right Fastlane Decision in an Agony of Choices?

    I did, and am currently considering quitting my job to get back into it. Anyway, this thread is not about poker, I've no interest in selling it to anyone either. If anybody is curious or wants to learn more they can find all the information they want online. Btw I don't think the way you went...

    How to Make the Right Fastlane Decision in an Agony of Choices?

    It's simple math, and practice. If he wants little income without having time to set up or required costs it's a good option. Frankly I'm surprised how few people use that option, with how low the barrier of entry is and how high the income can get.. If you're young, have no skills, ideas, or...
