    Am I in the right business? Perspective from an Artist

    Maybe it's time for a pivot. It worked for me. I was a burned out architect that pivoted to a real estate developer.

    Let's Build a Spec House!

    EXECUTION 
    This is a hard one. I've worked in this industry for 20 years so my only suggestion would be to hang around as many developers/real estate agents/contractor types as you can. Picking your general contractor is going to be the single biggest decision you will make. I would put 90% of my time in...

    What are you sacrificing?

    MINDSET 
    In my experience sacrificing was short in duration. I haven't really seen any long term negative sacrifices. In fact I only had a few negative sacrifices...and they were temporary (months not years). Overall what I saw as "sacrifices" actually turned out to be pleasant changes in my life. The...

    If I can't start a successful business, should I just buy one?

    NOTABLE! 
    Back to the mindset thing. This sentence is backwards. The market comes first. For instance, I know there is a shortage of new houses in my area...so I built a business to provide those houses. This is MUCH different than "I'm building a house, I hope somebody likes/buys it!" Another way to...

    If I can't start a successful business, should I just buy one?

    NOTABLE! 
    This in an excerpt from a post I like about a gentlemen entering the T-shirt business (I know this is just one of your attempts). It shows what reality looks like (not the fake businesses for sale with ridiculous asks and misleading numbers). I learned it wasn’t as easy as I thought. I couldn’t...

    If I can't start a successful business, should I just buy one?

    NOTABLE! 
    It took me 4 years post TMF to really see any money and I had built 7+ companies prior. Why not? Fastlane is a mindset. When you get it dialed in you can do it forever. You haven't provided value to anybody yet. You must be selling something nobody wants. I had this happen with a line of dog...

    Possible Blue Ocean? Affordable "tiny" housing park

    HOT! REAL ESTATE 
    It's a thing. The Katrina cottage movement was the largest development/plan. It took big government money and wasn't really successful. The main problem is the people said they wanted to live in them but when it came to move date they preferred the typical suburban home. They just didn't sell...

    GOT Fired and hired myself .

    Congrats on getting fired, ha! Be sure to differentiate between building a business or just hustling. They both have their place, just make sure you know which one you are working on. Link us up to something you are working on!

    How to come up with a business idea you'll enjoy

    IDEA 
    Unscripted covers this in detail (chapter 29) so I won't argue with you. My life experience backs up MJ's philosophy on this issue.

    How to come up with a business idea you'll enjoy

    IDEA 
    It's just a lot faster/easier/accurate to find the market first. I've done it both ways many times. Maybe my tenth checkbox is enjoyment.

    How to come up with a business idea you'll enjoy

    IDEA 
    The MARKET doesn't care what you enjoy. I happen to like what I'm doing but my customers wouldn't care if I despised it. Check out MJ's "Cancer Corollary".
