    This Man Saw Improvement Instantly. YOU CAN TOO!

    INTRO 
    Chris, great to have you here. Your description of the forum reminds me of how I felt when I first arrived. There are a great many entrepreneurial forums, but there's something very different about the folks this one attracts. Many feel like all talk and show (off) and tell. This is one that...

    The Roadmap To Beating Overwhelm

    MINDSET 
    @Delmania - Awesome suggestions. The council of invisible mentors can be a great one, especially if you're struggling to find strong mentors to connect with. It also doesn't just have to be with those from history, I've known people get as much value from it using those they are admire in the...

    How I Lost a Million Dollars, But Am Happier And Stronger Than Ever

    GOLD! 
    I am very lucky to have one really good business partner that I work with currently, but the pain of reading this was raw... because been there, done that exact same thing @MustImprove. I equally still speak to the people involved and I see it now as a really powerful and actually pretty...

    How to provide a solution to them?

    My first suggestion would be to keep talking to these people about the problem they're facing. The truth is if they know it's a problem then by default they will also know what the solution is... or more importantly what it looks like. I work with a lot of people coaching and mentoring them...

    The Roadmap To Beating Overwhelm

    MINDSET 
    If you're pushing a mountain about I'm not surprised that you're feeling exhausted and drained. I'm going to let you into a secret. You don't need to push that mountain to get where you want to go. You just need to stop, take a breather and find the path that allows you to go up and over it. At...

    The Roadmap To Beating Overwhelm

    MINDSET 
    I can totally connect with this and having felt the strain of feeling everything is bearing down upon you I really do feel for you @sija1 Saying you should try this, that or the other is always more easy to say (or write in this case) than it actually is to do in practice. Maybe in this case...

    The abundance is slowly killing my drive

    MINDSET RANT 
    Just re-read this epic post for the 9000th time and this has more and more impact each time I read it. It's truly the essence of what entrepreneurship and winning in life is all about... giving something of value to the world. If you can't look yourself in the mirror it's because you're not...

    Ascent to Greatness and Success

    EXECUTION 
    I know I'm going a bit off topic on this but I just read the post again and something struck me about how you wrote it... and how people talk about depression. If you talk to a lot of people suffering from depression then they will say "my depression" makes them feel this way or that way...

    The Roadmap To Beating Overwhelm

    MINDSET 
    Away from meditation, two things have worked for me to calm the mind. The first is to just talk to someone (preferably someone you trust and will let you just verbally throw up all over them) or free writing. Both are doing basically the same thing - getting what's messing you up in your head...

    The Roadmap To Beating Overwhelm

    MINDSET 
    Note: Wrote this for a client wanting to move forward with their business, but getting stuck in Overwhelm quicksand. Thought I'd throw it up as been hearing lot of overwhelm statements on threads in the last few days. You feel like you’re not moving anywhere. I totally get that. I’ve spent...

    No Need For Blockbuster

    Awesome analogy!! I love this! This is the most awesome side effect of entrepreneurship. It really is an education of hard knocks and will definitely whip you into shape in a way no other education can. You and me both... in a way I think it's a lesson that everyone should complete. If you...

    No network? No money? No idea? No education? NO PROBLEM!

    GOLD! IDEA 
    This. @Austin Sarwar , I can totally connect with the feelings of being lost and not knowing your direction. @SinisterLex has it right with his suggestion. When you're lost it tends to be because you've not been exposed to the niche / area that really is going to connect with you or that you're...

    No Need For Blockbuster

    Totally agree with you with the marathon analogy @Game. The reason so many people are intimidated by marathons is because they're looking at today when they can't run a mile and then speeding all the way through to having to run 26.2 miles. That's going to scare the hell out of anyone. Break it...

    No network? No money? No idea? No education? NO PROBLEM!

    GOLD! IDEA 
    Wow. Another gem from the @IceCreamKid Take out the words "writing copy" and replace it with "watching courses on the same topic you're spent watching for the last 6 months" , "reading the blogs of gurus in your niche" or "moving a pixel back and forth for a month till you have a website that...

    My First Published Book

    PUBLISHING 
    Like @mws87 I would advise caution using Fiverr. There are some great providers on there, but the truth is that they are few and far between and while it might only be $5, you'll find in the end you're going to end up paying a lot of $5 to find that right service. As has been mentioned you...

    Help me connect the dots

    I am really impressed by anyone who continually tries to improve themselves and I commend you for doing so. Friends are great, but unless they are the exact target market who are really showing a need for the product they suggest then I'd stay well away from launching into any kind of project...

    What is your life like without a college degree?

    HOT! 
    This so many times over. Not saying it's the right opinion, but totally matches mine. I started one degree, basically spent that year having an education in being away from home, discovering who I really was when there wasn't all the people I'd grown up around me. It also taught me how easy it...

    how to handle your financial situation

    As you've discovered the truth is that making changes in your life really is about reframing things! Some people fail to manage their money. Others fail to manage their talents, habits and motivation and end up depleting their time and money banks by not being able to see the best ways to use...

    How do you stay focused?

    MINDSET 
    Some awesome responses already! Like @Mattie and @SteveO a lot of the reason I can stay focused is because I like what I do. I might not like every single part of it (anyone who says that is a liar), but I have a bigger goal in sight. This not only is a motivator, but it allows me to see that...
