    So...I got an Instagram DM from a musician worth $50 million

    SOCIAL MEDIA 
    Not a fan of freebies for celebrities. I would open a door for them if their hands were full, but I wouldn't give them anything in my professional capacity (like donate stuff for awards shows like I've been asked to). I was once fooled into giving someone with a celebrity connection something...

    Thank you so much, this is brilliant and exactly what I needed to hear. I think you were speaking to me. :smile2: Doing all the lists, etc, now, and will be taking my time.

    Yes, due to a couple different things It's not difficult to hold a job, but it has been difficult to find one that works around the one time commitment I have. And I really don't want to work for anyone else. I haven't in years. I do, however, have a few leads now on things to get by that will...

    No model required for most of my widgets, but I do have a model I can use if needed. This is it in a nutshell, I can't fast lane because I can't slow lane. I have been looking for things that are less demanding (and that sounds lazy!) to do to cover bills, and I really think I do need to get...

    I think I know myself but not my why. I've always been about other people's whys and I'm not quite sure why. Got the Sinek book and will look into the other program. Thanks!

    I said I don't see how writing copy for others is fast lane (I still don't). Selling stuff isn't always fast lane. I was just curious if writing copy for others is a possibility if copy I've written for my own stuff does not sell it. What I'm asking is how can copywriting services be considered...

    Thank you Melissa, for your very thorough answer. Yes, story of my life. I am really easily thrown off by things that don't happen according to my "script" (see what I did there). I am anything but conventional, but I did have many things that never came to fruition, and I have been drifting...

    That's been my major mistake in life in general, assuming that people would care as much about and dedicate as much time to my stuff/things/life as I have for theirs. Eh, that one is iffy. There is a market, definitely, but my traffic is low (I am currently working on my SEO). No cold...

    I had to think about this a lot and I think I've figured it out, but the truth is a mixture of sad/ugly. Have to analyze the past a little bit to move forward.

    Schedule my way to failure... :smile2: Products and services for my issues, hmmm...I've actually never thought about that. I mean literally, it never occurred to me, I guess I figured my problems were hopeless... LOL Honestly, I generally think about things that would benefit large numbers of...

    I am stuck, even after 10 months on this forum. TLDR: Do I revamp and fastlane my slow lane handmade widget business, or do I just do that for money while I execute some other fastlane ideas? The problems I struggle with: Problem #1: My handmade widget business is very slow right now. And...

    The whole scene to me in a nutshell: unkempt hipsters young enough to be my children throwing buzzword frisbees in hopes of hitting someone who wants to give them money.

    Mark Cuban: Guide to Getting Rich... just terrible.

    I struggle with this. A lot. Like, I can look at a business (mainly handmade type sellers), and give them plenty of advice on presentation to make their business far more visually appealing, but my own handmade widget business has never brought me great riches, even though I know the...

    Mark Cuban: Guide to Getting Rich... just terrible.

    OFF-TOPIC 
    He's failed that part. Although, at his wealth level, being one doesn't really matter, I guess. I followed him on Twitter for a while and he was well, a dick, so I had to unfollow him. Too much political commentary, not enough business.

    Thank You MJ For..............(Add your reason here)

    HOT! 
    Thank you, MJ, for demonstrating that the Unscripted life is something to be admired and aspired to and lived instead of just being considered weird. Well, I'm probably still considered weird, but at least now I know why. ;)
