    Is todays education wrong??

    HOT! 
    I have a degree in liberal arts, and I know you all make fun of that ;), but mine is a true liberal arts degree from a top college where the emphasis is on critical thinking. Most of modern education is horrible because no one is taught to think critically or reason, they are merely taught to...

    The Fail Thread

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    This pretty much sums up my entire business life as well as my avatar--for anyone who doesn't know, it's from the movie Up, where there is a dog easily distracted by squirrels, and I am easily distracted by the shiny . In my line of business, because I'm artistic and make widgets, I have a ton...

    Oh, gosh, I think I can win this thread. I told a bit in my Intro post, but I will list more here. In no particular order: -Blew through years of savings in about 25% of the time I had meant it to be for (I was moving to another state so left the job and thought it was the perfect time to...

    Rats! I'm $81,945 short!

    FUNNY 
    I've seen this on Etsy, where sellers will price one piece of art outrageously to get traffic into their shops, because naturally, everyone clicks on a $250,000 painting. :hilarious:

    Feel like I'm getting screwed?

    They are acting as the broker, connecting someone who needs something done with someone who will do it. I don't know if whatever they're doing is worth 10k though.

    The Entrepreneur's Guide to Dating & Relationships

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    I know this sounds cliche, but you have to be comfortable by yourself first (I'm not saying you are not, OP!). I am in my 40s, never been married, and have screwed up a few relationships (not horribly, no baby daddies out there or anything). I've always been overly focused on myself (anxious...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Finished it! Will there be a quiz? :) Seriously, the best business book I have ever read, THE BEST. :thumbsup: And I bet I am the first person to critique this particular part of TMF: MJ, you seriously need to be schooled on why a $4,000 handbag is superior to a $100 handbag. :smuggy:

    HOT! 
    I vote for Bic medium all the way. Although, like Andy, I use a Parker pen when I need to be fancy. I love that everyone here is notebook geeks. I have found my people. :)

    INTRO 
    I am reading the gold threads as fast as I can! Some of my failures? These are embarrassing, but here goes: 1. Not having a plan. I thought having years worth of savings and doing what *I* wanted was enough to somehow carry me forward until I found enough customers to sustain me. Seriously...

    My Moleskine Notebook is in the Trash

    HOT! 
    I use unlined Moleskines for sketching and watercolors and I LOVE THEM, my artistic side loves the quality. For writing and business planning, I use spiral notebooks, the kind that go on sale for 17 cents at the beginning of the school year. I love notebooks and sketchbooks and Moleskines and I...
