    Your Focus Determines Your Reality.

    @Yoda see, you actually get me. You have expressed what I truly mean I speak of redefining success. Would it surprise you that I have another image crafted already to reflect the conclusion you reached?

    Your Focus Determines Your Reality.

    Truly, the title of this post is the real gem of this thread (although your son Trooper sounds like a-ok kinda guy : ) Most people don't realize how significantly your focus impacts your perception, and what you feel consequently. That's why you have be careful with goal-setting, you may set...

    This is What Happens to Money Chasers.

    You're a bit late on this party-story. The guy was an a$$ clown who somehow got ownership of this company (read: he didn't build it). He openly flaunted his devil-may-care attitude about raising the prices on Twitter, demonstrating a world-class lack of any PR skills. What happens when you...

    I know not everyone is the biggest fan of Ayn Rand, but isn't the correlation between entitlement and socialism so disgustingly apparent?

    Do. Or, do not. There is no try.

    INTRO 
    Excellent introduction. Not often that they span a whole lifetime... It's heartwarming to see that you're already executing on realizations, rather than coming here and talking about starting on an execution. I definitely resonate with the whole comfort thing. I think that I feel those cycles...

    Light vs. Dark -Thoughts On Controlling Emotions

    MINDSET 
    Very insightful @Mattie I'd like to add a short note...being in control of your emotions has a LOT to do with your identity. You will find emotional control comes naturally when you have a strongly defined self-image. A simple, but real example: I'm 100% confident that my longterm future is...

    Is it a good idea to show a potential web developer your flowchart/mockup?

    IDEA 
    In general, it still takes a lot of time to develop software, even if you have it laid out. The question is, will you meet someone zealous to steal your idea? I seriously doubt it. Since it is a risk you incur by contracting freelancers however, you could opt to avoid passing along a digital copy.

    Google Contributor, What's the Word?

    MARKETING 
    @Andy Black It's a smart idea because you support specific sites that you love. That's the concept of being a "patron". Also, it's ridiculous how many people lack basic care for their computers. Here's the numbers on adblocking percentages. I belong to the "staggering 29.05%" of Linux users :)

    How Do You Develop Work Ethic?

    MINDSET 
    The expression "Rome wasn't built in a day" is what I'm upholding here. MAKE goals, just keep them REALISTIC. Setting yourself in a negative feedback loop of constantly failing to meet goals is extremely detrimental to self-esteem/work ethic. Example: My goal is to make $1000 dollars a day...

    How Do You Develop Work Ethic?

    MINDSET 
    It's all about paradigm shifts. Setting up a bar that says "I must do X amount of hours on exercise Y or else I have FAILED" is a huge mistake. You will feel like shit whenever you don't meet an expectation that was unrealistic to begin with.

    Instagram Marketing ($100K+ profit, 4M followers)

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA AMA 
    Interesting. I had heard of concerns with unfollowing that had IG banning people. That's why I'm sticking to just likes. Take a look at this. I don't what the answer is -- but more information is valuable. EDIT: Oops, that link is for Twitter, not IG. But the latter has been mentioned earlier...

    App Question|Programming

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    By "I'm", you mean "Someone Else", right? Here's a snippet from developers.google.com samples: In this case, 'Q' is set to the input of a form. You could alter this for the server-side to automatically query for 'Mark Cuban', then, say, parse the first 10 results into your UI.

    Started the process on a brand new account. Looking at it as a long term investment, whereas I'm building a marketing channel. Maybe we should do some sort of insta-hackers support group? IE guys like @eliquid are trying this tech out in their respective areas, we should aggregate the knowledge...

    Only that one associates cost with value, and it's up to you to capitalize on that perception; being the real deal will bring repeat business.
