    Lead Generation - Create Content or Source Clients First?

    MARKETING 
    Up to you, I've seen it done both ways. I think per lead makes more sense. You make the connections, it's down to them to close the deal.

    Entrepreneurship Anxiety

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Interesting reading this thread and then seeing @MidwestLandlord reply. So I started reading and thought "Nah anxiety isn't really my game". Then I saw the way you described it and I thought "Oh, man, I totally do get that, but it doesn't ever feel like a bad thing". So when I saw Midwest's...

    Fear and Action-Faking in Entrepreneurship-- a 19 year old's guide to askholing.

    NOTABLE! 
    Do you even own an alarm? WTF even is your sleep pattern? I had a lie in today and got up at 7am, it a Sunday, an extra hour never hurt anyone. Got up, had leisurely breakfast and started working at 7:45. I've done at least 3:30 hours work and its 11:30. I'm going to meet my brother for lunch...

    Getting Rid of Cold Calling Anxiety Using Brute Force

    GOLD! 
    I admire the drive the get better at sales, but wouldn't it be better making 50 calls a day selling something you can actually deliver? You would be getting the same experinace, and perhaps even gain some genuine clients.

    How does open source make money? (if it does)

    Remember that saying everyone keeps bringing up about selling shovels to miners (or something like that) Well the open source guys are making the shovels and going mining. They create a tool, give it away for free (and let people do what they want with it). Then they provide a service, using...

    The Ultimate Hater Thread

    MINDSET 
    I either don't experience haters, or they simply don't show up on my radar. I'm not sure which it is, and frankly I don't care. "I proved the haters wrong" stories are cool But "I proved myself right" is even cooler.

    I Don't Know What I'm Doing. But I'm Doing.

    EXECUTION 
    So now that it approaches the end of the development stages, I am a lot more hands on. The developer (so far) has done an incredible job of building the functioning website, but its time for me to step in and make sure little (but actually very big) things like English are on point. On top of...

    I just can't seem to get there...

    INTRO 
    Seems to me like you might be targeting the wrong audience. The professional guys surely have a trainer. You cant possibly be pro without a trainer, right? And based on that assumption you should be targeting the amateurs who have professional aspirations. The ones who would like a trainer, but...

    I Don't Know What I'm Doing. But I'm Doing.

    EXECUTION 
    Hi Guys, Been offline for a couple months as I was simply finding this place too distracting. This is an incredible resource and one of the best corners of the internet. But it can pull you in, and I needed to get shit done, hence my few months away. In those couple of months things have moved...

    In The Blink Of An Eye Everything Can Change

    Very sorry to hear the news, hopefully he lives close enough/you have the time to visit him. I've always viewed death in what most others consider abnormally positive ways. Think my parents got very worried when I started quoting Peter Pan at a young age. "To die will be an awfully big...

    Learn basic skills or just start doing?

    How will programming help you solve needs? Find a need first, then evaluate what skills are needed to give your customer what they need. You could spend a year of your life learning to program, and then realise that there is a huge need for this physical product that nobody else is making...

    Relevant Business Idea: Hack Free Phone

    IDEA 
    There are quite a lot of faraday cages/cases for smartphones on the market for those of you who are interested. As for stopping the government listening in on your calls, use a VPN (preferably one based in a country who don't cooperate with your home government) and make your calls over a VoIP...

    Relevant Business Idea: Hack Free Phone

    IDEA 
    $10 old school nokia gets close. But I agree. Any phone marketed as "fully encrypted" or "off the grid" would do very well. Although you can also "hack proof" just about any smartphone if you have the inclination.

    "People aren't buying it because of the gym"

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Houses like that really don't appeal to me. I'd never use 90% of it. I'd rather live in a pokey 1 bed appartment in some incredible location which draws me out of the house everyday. It sure is a great reminder that $1m isn't a lot of money though. Must try harder.

    Is it safe to say the system we are in is slowlane or sidewalk?

    SLOWLANE 
    The Fastlane only works because of the system we live in. Slowlaners and siderwalkers are needed for the system to work just as much as Fastlaners, and they are needed in greater numbers. We are all cogs in the societal machine. You just chose which cog you want to be. The education system...

    Has Moving to a Warm and Sunny Climate Made You Happier?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    @Jonathan Polley How good is your Spanish? Or how good was it when you first moved out there? Language barriers draw me to the English speaking world when seeking the Sun. Any insight from someone living in Spain?

    Has Moving to a Warm and Sunny Climate Made You Happier?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Honestly, it doesn't sound like the UK is your problem. Your stress isn't a result of the country you live in, the stress is a result of your situation. The sun isn't going to put money in your bank or food on your table. On the other hand, Spain is much cheaper than the UK. Your wife is...
