    Improving my sleep

    HOT! HEALTH 
    I use L-Theanine and 5-htp to induce lucid dreams... didn't realize someone had combined them in a sleep "supplement." That's cool. CDP choline also tends to develop those REMsleep episodes, and probably mitigates some of the ill effects of poor sleep.

    Corona Virus does any of the successful....

    MINDSET 
    If I was in travel, hospitality, medical, or event planning, I would probably put a lot more consideration into what to do differently if my business was disrupted. In some ways, my main business is well positioned to serve under disaster conditions. We're all-in on an online model, while...

    the one most important step / please feedback

    Well, if you quit your job right now, could you do 8 shows per month? If you did 8 shows per month, what would the average number of attendees probably be? Account for differences in time of year and average it across the year. If the average number of attendees would be 80, that means your...

    the one most important step / please feedback

    You might be overestimating how much comedians in the US make. Sure there are a few rich ones, but there are also lots of poor ones. Even making a living off of comedy is an achievement for most people, at least that's my understanding. What you're looking for is scale. I'm not an entertainment...

    'Parasite' won the Oscar for "Best Picture." I couldn't be more disgusted.

    You're not getting out of this until you say it's the best movie ever... take your punishment Chris!

    I'm just playing around with you man. You seemed kind of serious about it. Trust me, the people commenting are more enlightened than you might think. There are a lot of free thinkers here.

    Too bad it is now impossible for enlightened people to find other sources of information, either confirming or contradicting Chris' opinion. Yes, nobody will ever watch it now, alas. All over for that movie, and the director and the actors will obviously starve. Chris, how dare you share an...

    How to free yourself from the SCRIPT while still an employee

    MINDSET 
    Bigger companies also set up discount packages for employees to buy luxuries and vacations for slightly cheaper. People get really excited about that "benefit." It's an obvious ploy to keep them broke and make them dependent on the job, unfortunately. A good 25% of my employee manual is written...

    "Those Who Cannot Do, Teach?" Questions About Making Courses

    If you believe you are not competent at something, and you charge people to teach them the thing you're not competent at, you're just defrauding people. "Those who can't do, teach" is a slur. It's not some universal truth, but an insult to teachers who are competent. Why aspire to be an...

    Confused, really confused.

    There's nothing wrong with degrees, as long as they're what you need to get to your goals. For example, if you want to research atomic energy, maybe it's valid to start with a physics degree. I don't think going into a college degree without a plan is any better than going into business without...

    EXECUTION 
    I can second this idea. When you're selling a service, being in a room full of business people who ask "so what do you do" is nice. You have an easy reply like "I help people sell more of their product using targeted facebook ads." Then you can talk to them about their business, nd find out all...

    Actions follow concepts

    Approaching that natural tendency toward defensiveness from the other side, I'll often ask for feedback something like this: I want to know what you think about <product> and whether it's useful or not. And I just want to say that the best thing you could do for me is to tell me why it won't...

    Dealing with stress and burn out?

    MINDSET 
    First, the obligatory "get enough sleep" comment, since sleep is huge for reducing stress and burnout. Beyond that... The other thing I find to be true, and you might too, is that when something you're doing actually gets done, and you can see the result, it's a huge relief. We get satisfaction...

    Actions follow concepts

    Oh this is so painfully true. Name the business "No Name Construction" and move on. If you really have to change it later, you can use the wads of cash that are coming in from delivering actual results, to print new business cards. I think fear and avoidance are behind a lot of that behavior...
