    Gym is counter-productive to work. Or is it?

    HEALTH 
    I did some research into this before, and the conclusion I came to was that working out too much negatively impacts your ability to make money. It's not what most people want to say is true, but I've yet to find data that says otherwise. Here's one chart that captures this perfectly: A BMI...

    Question for mods -- Can I post up notes of books here?

    Just do it. You asked for permission once and got it. Now if you want to do it then do. This is an online forum. Make threads. Get banned. Change ip's. Make a new account. Don't do what got you banned. Life is still good.

    You need to learn how to grind. You really think there's a "fun" way of doing sales? It's not fun, but the people that do it learn to appreciate it for what it is - a game of persuasion that can drastically alter your life financially. o_O

    @pipedream2017 Don't get discouraged by this thread. People are giving you a hard time because they think you're a troll. The reason they think that is because your username is "pipedream" and your marketing strategy is also highly unlikely to work. What you need to do first before pursuing a...

    Don't mean to take away from the lesson... it's a good lesson, and a good story, but highly inaccurate: Fact or Fiction?: NASA Spent Millions to Develop a Pen that Would Write in Space, whereas the Soviet Cosmonauts Used a Pencil Some key points: The pens were made by a private company for...

    Don't embrace failure. Failure is part of the process but not something that you should be proud of.

    Yup. You need to hire someone to manage those clients. Having a lot of work isn't a bad thing. But having a lot of operational work, and no time for growth is bad. You need to shift time away from operational and into growth. Easiest way to do that is to hire someone else. And if you can't...

    This. A better thing to track is not how many hours you worked, but "Did I accomplish what's necessary for the business to operate?" and "Did I push the business forward today?" If you accomplished both, then you should have no qualms about your day. If you didn't accomplish #1, then your...

    MATH: Building a Sellable Business vs Getting a Job

    MINDSET 
    This is one of the problems with my argument if look at it from the perspective of someone that has trouble putting a roof over their heads. However, that could be easily mitigated with working for a couple years and saving money before starting the business. If you can't feed yourself and are...

    MATH: Building a Sellable Business vs Getting a Job

    No. You just have to keep growing and add on business income every year. Let's say you want the equivalent of $50k per year, then your business income would look like: Year 1: $14k business income. Year 2: $14k + $14k = $28k business income for the year. Year 3: $28k + $14k = $42k business...

    Should I quit and get a job? Or should I keep going? Those were questions that I kept asking myself over two years ago: (Notable! - I rather be a failed entrepreneur than an average employee that never took a risk) Each day I concentrated on the fastlane, but while building it, I kept...
