    The Best Speech On The Scripted Mindset You've Never Heard...

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Thank you! That was 45 minutes well spent. It reminded me a lot of T. Harv Eker's stuff. My number one takeaway is to change your environment. Essentially: Move out of your broke neighborhood Stop consuming broke media, and Quit hanging out with broke people

    Willpower is NOT Limited and believing it is can hold you back.

    After reading Indistractable, I no longer believe in Ego Depletion. I've chosen to not believe because it's more beneficial to me to not believe in it. Now, instead of looking at my willpower as a muscle. I look at it like a car. All I have to do is keep my car fueled, keep up the...

    Willpower is NOT Limited and believing it is can hold you back.

    Lol. @Fassina I'm not sure you want to go down this road with @ChrisV. He's a data expert and I'm pretty sure that he also read Indistractable.

    Willpower is NOT Limited and believing it is can hold you back.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the book, Indistractable. And in it, Nir Eyal pretty much says that the ego depletion model is outdated junk science.

    Lol. Maybe, it was both of them. I should have been throwing parties in undergrad instead of the lame jobs I had. Intramural referee and security assistant. https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-ran-a-nightclub-out-of-his-college-house-to-pay-rent-2015-9...

    Business #2 was Minus Cal. They asked for 500k for 20%. $2.5M valuation. They presented themselves as selling a science-based snack bar and a diet tablet that block fat when you eat them. They claim to have created a natural fat blocking agent from fermented green tea. They claim that the...

    IDEA 
    Lol. I though you were "All about the process" First build up your user base by getting 1,000 of your local friends and classmates to download your app or sign up for your free party newsletter. Then go to local bar owners and/or party throwers and tell them that you have 1,000 local college...

    Possible Blue Ocean? Affordable "tiny" housing park

    Very true. Another possible solution is converting motels into dorms for young working adults. https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Co-living-tower-in-SoMa-could-usher-in-wave-of-14074532.php?psid=pjono

    IDEA 
    I'm assuming your revenue will come from the bar owners and party throwers? Or are you planning on building up the user base, then selling advertising? Or both? Why not start with a no coding solution where you ask local party throwers to pay you for a party listing? You could use Mighty...

    HOT! 
    About five years ago, I stopped watching television. Not because I didn't enjoy it. But, because I enjoyed it way too much. I figured if I was going to be an entrepreneur, I should spend my free time building a business or learning about building businesses. So, that's what I've been doing...

    Reading a lot - is this really the #1 trait of rich people?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I'm watching this great Netflix documentary on Bill Gates. It's very good. It's called: Inside Bill's Brain: Decoding Bill Gates Gates is just like Buffet and Munger. He inhales books. Similar to Elon Musk, Gates reads very fast, but has great recall. That's a real superpower.

    What's the professional way to do market research to find sectors and niches ready to grow?

    Talk to the customers. Stop trying to find a problem for your solution. Instead, start trying to find a solution for your customers' problems.

    Is Chinese Cheap Labor a Myth?

    HOT! 
    There's a great documentary on Netflix called American Factory. A Chinese billionaire starts a glass making factory in Dayton, Ohio. In the beginning they're trying to use American workers. But, by the end, they're trying to figure out how to replace them with robots. Very interesting.
