    if there was an adult version of StumbleUpon based on your fetishes would you use it?

    HOT! 
    Fair enough ;-) I don't like unnecessary hassle, drama or other complications in my life, either. I just happen to think "Guarding" can turn into a hassle at some point as well. Comes down to balance, or finding that "sweet-spot", probably. Going to the other end of the spectrum and telling...

    Work on your insecurities. You're acting like ideas/needs are scarce and that everyone is going to steal your stuff if you aren't super-careful (read: "paranoid"). You're acting from a place that assumes that there is "not enough to go around" - in particular "money". Money is one of the most...

    If you lack the confidence to actually give it a try, let me give you some "motivation": - People are buying ringtones that sound like farts or burps. I think those are disgusting and silly, but I'm probably also not the one they're targetting. Ok, to be honest, I think burping noises are kinda...

    Let the market decide if they like it or not. If they like it -> enjoy the fact that you created a valuable/entertaining/convenient/whatever service like you intended to. If they dislike it -> adjust to match market needs. Or discard it altogether. I'd say give it a whirl. Sounds like a good...

    How do I stay dedicated to one project?

    MINDSET 
    I can confirm the effectiveness of the post-it note method. I used to think that coming up with minigoals and "checkpoints" and writing them down is kinda tedious and silly. Until I tried it. That stuff worked surprisingly well. There's power in writing stuff down and "going in with a plan". It...

    MINDSET 
    You don't, silly. You start a bunch of stuff and quit once you hit a minor roadblock or once it gets slightly boring, whichever comes first, then you find a job and work just to pay the bills for the rest of your life. At least that's predictable and safe. Don't forget to put some money into...

    How do I stop worrying & overthinking & stressing out (20yo)

    EXECUTION 
    Ouch. Seems like you're trapped in something we call "Neuroticism". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroticism The best fix for that? Work on your confidence. Life's easy. Life's not meant to be hard. So don't brainwash yourself into believing that minor stuff is all that important. It's really...

    I'll expand a little bit on what DennisDuty said, since most of the points he made are pretty good. It is correct that at the age of 3-4 years, children tend learn the best (and most), since the brain and creates a ton of synaptical connections. It's a phase of High Quality AND High Quantity...

    Project Amazon- My eBook Journey

    EXECUTION 
    Hi RicTur, I'm going to chime in hehe You're considering making every new book available for no cost right? I'm all for giving out as much free stuff as possible. I think releasing the first couple of chapters or pages of your book for free might be a good alternative, too. Releasing your first...

    Project Amazon- My eBook Journey

    EXECUTION 
    Heh. I like the fact that you're really straight-forward with little to no fluff (in this thread. Haven't read your books/pamphlets yet ;P) You have "proof of concept": You created a product, published it, got money out of it. That's usually the backbone of a business. You can basically use a...

    I feel so alone...

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    Your current situation is not a problem. It's a challenge :) It's nature's/life's/the universe's way of showing you an area that will provide "personal growth", paid with a currency called "adversity" ;) I'm curious which Self-Help sub-niche you've picked. Mind telling us?

    My first real attempt at marketing our company!

    MARKETING 
    Meh, I don't like the whole Boogeyman approach. Just my personal opinion though, since I'm all for positive marketing and only talking about negative things/fears in a "consulting" way.

    How To Deal With Freeloaders

    MARKETING 
    People love "free" but on the other hand, they also love "valueable stuff". And sometimes those collide ("It's free, therefore it CAN'T POSSIBLY be valuable" -> Requires some brainwashing to show them that YOUR free stuff is actually EXTREMELY good). Freeloaders usually aren't asking for free...

    MARKETING 
    "People love to buy, but they don't like to be sold". Some of it seems a bit pushy - but since I don't know your niche, you might as well disregard what I say. You probably know your customers better than anyone here does. Speak from your heart (clichee, I know) and show them that you sincerely...

    Why All The Secrecy? Here's Why...

    IMPORTANT! 
    Uh sure. At the moment, I'm pretty much a wantrepreneur hehe. I'm currently creating a product, just to learn the ropes and see how it all works. If I ever become really successful, I'll probably share my results and how I achieved them with others. The "Event" AND the "Process". I'd also like...

    Why All The Secrecy? Here's Why...

    IMPORTANT! 
    If I ever make a fortune, I probably wouldn't mind also sharing how much it is. But then again, I'm just starting out, so maybe my perspective will change, who knows. So far, I believe that money isn't exactly scarce, once you know how to make it. Right? While I agree with MJ on all of the...

    *Reads the first page of this thread* *Tries to endure all the confusion and cognitive dissonance, hoping that by page 5 this all will start to make sense* *Skips straight to Page 5* *Tries to eat his own face off* I call shenanigans hehe. But it generated curiosity, apparently. Way to go...

    Being scared, everyday.

    INTRO 
    Hi there fellow introvert ;) I can feel your pain - the world is so interesting and there's so much to learn. I've kinda learned to somewhat accept the lack of curiosity of other people. It's their choice... but it's still sad. Here's the kicker though: The thing that "scares" you the most has...

    Dealing with lonliness

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Was about to give some advice, but it seems the lads (and ladettes) of this forum already took care of that ;D Like some other people mentioned: It's perfectly possible to "not be in need of direct social interaction" and just being content with being alone. Especially if you need time to think...
