    Web design journey

    That's a relief to hear, because I know that web designing does not require a whole lot of coding knowledge, and there's a bunch of templates for building a basic website, but I didn't really know how long I should learn coding. I am on code academy doing their free HTML and CSS courses right...

    Well, tbh this felt like a slap in the face, and/or a reality check, and I am sorry for making false assumptions while knowing nothing about you. Your advice seems very upfront, you don't bullshit, and tell me what I need to hear. I am always open to doing things outside my comfort zone, and I'm...

    That's good to hear! I have been doing well, but my web design business hasn't been moving forward as I've dealt with some issues the past few months, with my job and school, but since I graduate next month, I will be moving forward with it! As of now, I've spent about 2 weeks learning HTML and...

    I have thought about helping my dad scale his business, and all the other opportunities for it, but selling gas station items at a convenience store is not the best option for us at the moment, as it involves too much work, for too little output. He owns a couple different stores, and, I am not...

    That's great to hear that it worked out for you, I'm glad it did. I get that I am young, and may be living with my parents at the moment, but moving out, which may teach me responsibilities that I've yet to face, is just going to give me unnecessary bills and expenses, that I don't have enough...

    Thanks for the feedback. You're pretty much right on what you said, and I agree. But the reason why I am quitting my job is to focus full time on being a web developer. Besides, if I continue working, while not going to college, my dad will see me as just working and not doing anything else, so...

    Hi folks. In exactly one month, I am going to graduate high school, once and for all. I am not going to college so I can pursue my entrepreneurial dreams. As far as my dad is concerned, I am taking a "gap" year, which he doesn't like, as he thinks I am going to waste a year. I am currently...

    Time vs Value/effort

    Greetings everyone! I currently work at a Walmart, and I recently had a chat with my coworker. He'd been working at the store since before the covid pandemic, and started out in the electronics department. When he was working back then, he told me that he was very good at persuading customers...

    INTRO 
    Thank you for your insight. I hope you achieve your goal, and I promise it's worth it. Anytime you may feel like giving up, just try to remind yourself about why you're doing this, and imagine yourself in a state where you have achieved your goals, think about all the feedback you'd get!

    Destroying what has been destroying me

    INTRO 
    Thank you very much for the advice! I find being harsh on myself to be a little helpful and motivating, as it drives me to change. Before I lost my weight, I was in freshmen year of high school, and I was dealing with numerous issues. Some kids were picking on me, I had no friends, I was anxious...

    Peace be upon you all! Please bear with me as I'm trying to improve my writing skills. I am 17 years old in my senior year of high school and working part-time in retail. I bought Unscripted in 2022, when a few people on social media recommended it to me. This book ended up helping me in such a...
