    What are your thoughts on "Privilege"?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I think the ultimate privilege is the luxury of not even having to use your brain by crying "privilege" all the time.

    Sabotage: Don't let black & white thinking ruin your success

    MINDSET 
    Ha! I do that all the time, the leap seems insurmountable. There needs to be a term for that valley of the journey between getting the first customer and the fast lane. Valley of the Crawls? Valley of the Shadow of Death? :smile: I might be less bitter if my computer wasn't being an a$$ this...

    Resource Based Economy

    HOT! MINDSET 
    But even worry about a 40 year old meme? How about starting with yourself? Go give some food to the food bank, read to a child, buy a well for a village in Africa through a charity that builds them. See, food, water, and education can be given by you.

    Copywriting Contest... (RESULTS POSTED!)

    HOT! MARKETING 
    I missed out when this started but was curious to see what won. I can see why the winner was the winner and #3 was #3. Not to diss any entries--props to everyone who entered! At any rate, fasltlaners talk about creating value and how it is different from, but can lead to, wealth. It looks like...

    I've never even heard of Rick and Morty. And people think I'm weird... o_O

    Passive Income Robot - Death of Gurus

    GOLD! 
    It does seem like coaches spend all their time marketing. And yes, MJ, they absolutely do sell programs to teach others to be coaches. It's a gigantic Ponzi-like scheme. I have often thought I could and I absolutely possess the ability to be a "coach", the problem is, I would be a big faker...

    What do you think about this idea?

    You're the coach. What would you tell yourself to do?

    I really don't understand. (People want it FREE!)

    HOT! 
    Based on your website, your product (videos of what? podcasts of what?) has limited appeal. I haven't heard of anything you promote and all of the text I see overlaying your videos seems to be geared towards an audience who doesn't care about proper English. It looks like it is for young people...

    Most of you will never make it. Sad!

    PEOPLE LANDFILL 
    I made it through two minutes! How can you be in IT and have that crappy screen showing? I'm not in IT, and every IT thing I know I taught myself, but even I could make a better video. No matter what your message is, it is being drowned out by the :shit::shit::shit: presentation.

    Hurricane Irma

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I like this term. :smile: I just survived Harvey with very little damage (we were initially in the path but ended up just outside the FU Zone), but there are shortages, and I am sure it will get worse. A lot of crops were decimated. :( People in Florida, be safe, don't take risks, and like...

    So a customer from Houston placed an order today

    HOT! 
    Um, all other issues in this thread aside, as an e commerce person, I say ship it. I've seen some people on Etsy doing this automatically and I think the customer would know if they can't receive mail. Not all of Houston is under water and USPS is smart enough to hold packages if necessary...

    How to get out of parents house?

    MINDSET 
    Has it occurred to you that one of the sources of your parents' stress is YOU? I don't mean that in a bad way, but if you are living there (presumably rent free) and not contributing to the betterment of the the entire household, then I understand their feelings. Think about the ways you can...

    What Will Boom? - 2018-2023

    HOT! 
    Worker bots. They already have them in some fast food places, and I can see a lot of industries where they would prove way more cost efficient.

    Those Of You Who Ship Physical Products...

    I've had this happen. I do all of the check with the neighbors, etc, but I also: Ask if anyone else lives at that address who might have the package, like did the husband stick in his office, did the dog carry it off, etc. And is it a college dorm? Building with a doorman? Basement apt? Is it...

    The worst book I ever read was..

    HOT! 
    I don't read a ton of business books, I really look for quality over quantity, but I did read Outliers and I didn't like it either. For a long time I believed what was in it and while it is true that some people succeed because they have a leg up, that's not true for every successful person. But...

    Have Smartphones Destroyed Humanity?

    HOT! 
    I am guilty of this, but I have my face in my tablet in a book. In all fairness, I have spent a great deal of time at doctor's offices in the past year and a half and it's not like I needed to only be distracted for a few minutes. It's like "going for x kind of appt, need 2 books, going for y...

    Have Smartphones Destroyed Humanity?

    HOT! 
    From what I've seen, it's the permissiveness of the parents that is to blame. Why not have kids turn in their phones at 9 pm, during homework, meal times, and when the family is in the car? Oh, and at church, but that really shouldn't need to be said. I've observed friends at dinner and realized...

    Gold Card, Black Card, and Titanium Card. Anyone have these?

    Yes, but I cut mine out of an ad in Town and Country. :smile:

    Trying to motivate a friend that is unwilling to see the light.

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Your problem isn't that your friend is fired up to be a fast lane guy but just needs your direction, your problem is that you give way more shits about your friend's life than he does. Take it from me, you can spend years being invested in your friends' happiness and success and in the end be...
