    Advice on getting my first 25 subscribers for my videogame crowdfunding magazine

    IDEA 
    Why do you need to do that in the first place? If the end goal is to create a video game, why not focus on a prototype. Once you have the prototype make a pitch deck showing your market research and the numbers you expect to achieve. Then go out and raise the capital you need all in one big...

    How to fix poor attention to detail and focus?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I remember hearing a trick that Ben Franklin used. When he finished writing he would take the pages, and put them away in his desk. Then the next morning he would look them over to do his corrections, so he could view them with fresh eyes.

    14 y/o wanna-be-highschool(9th grade)- dropout.

    HOT! INTRO 
    1-2 hours a day + whatever you can manage on weekends would work. For your situation you would probably want to be doing something online where you can build it up. Be it a blog, newsletter, youtube channel etc. Something that isn't directly tied to your time and doesn't have a high startup...

    14 y/o wanna-be-highschool(9th grade)- dropout.

    HOT! INTRO 
    Personally I wouldn't drop out yet. Being that you're so young and still at the start of your journey. Being a highschool student is pretty easy, and you should have plenty of free time to work on a side business to gain experience, learn, and make some money. You shouldn't underestimate the...

    It's a decent idea for an app to maybe grow your coding skills with, but I can't really see it working as a business. Book summaries are easily found on youtube and on the rest of the web for free. You would have to make it very appealing to compete with all the free information already out...

    The Provoking "Wake Your A--" Up Thread

    MINDSET 
    Well, I managed to find MJ's book 4 years ago and action fake the whole time. There's a very bad loop you don't want to fall into. I've been consistently finding business models that interest me, I'll get started with them. Put maybe a month or two into it, and then I'll reason my out of...

    Crippling fear of asking for money. 8 years building and never launching my products.

    IDEA 
    If you don't like asking individual people for money, why not use the B2B model instead. If you're charging an organization I bet you won't feel there's anything wrong with it.

    Starting a cleaning business

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    I ended December with very nice earnings of $3700 for the month. I went from a guy who was barely making $15/hr doing uber eats part time. To someone who makes $35/hr, consistently doing around 40hours a week. Not too shabby It feels great as that's the most I've ever earned in a single month...

    Is UNI really worthless?

    MINDSET 
    1. Uni in general isn't necessarily useless. The main problem is people jumping into uni without thinking it through and not questioning if going is worth it to them or not. Figuring out not only the monetary cost, but the time cost as well. If you have thought about it and decided it's worth it...

    Starting A Cleaning Business

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Hey there @Fasted welcome to the forum. I understand exactly where you're coming from, I think it's best when starting out to do something that translates to money pretty quickly like cleaning. I actually ended up kind of transitioning more towards lawncare after initially starting with...

    Just went for it. There is an app called taskrabbit that you can get jobs through, I signed up with that. I didn't have any tools when I started. I was using my customers rakes lol. Now I've got a couple of rakes, a cheap blower, and some clippers for trimming trees and bushes. I'm 100% reliant...

    Thanks for the support, I'm getting excited to see where I can take this. Maybe next fastlane summit I'll have something to present. Interesting idea, I've looked at it a little bit. I don't really think the tech is there yet for it to be viable for a business at this point. Maybe sometime in...

    Update: Week of 12/6 - 12/12 Hours worked: 42 Earnings: $1,172. My $13 rake was a great investment, but it ended up snapping in half while I was raking a particularly large pile of leaves. I ended up replacing it with two nicer rakes and I'm planning on buying some hedge cutters tomorrow for a...

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Update: I've been slowly raising my hourly rate(now $27/hr) and mainly focusing on doing yard work at the moment as it's been far more lucrative than home cleaning. It's mostly been leaf removal, and I would use whatever tools the homeowner had. Now I've finally bought my first tool, a rake...

    One week update: I've made $809 in my first week, things are going very well. I made $210 today which is an amazing amount of money to me at this point in time. I've kind of expanded from doing just cleaning. I've been cleaning, doing yardwork, moving couches, and hanging christmas lights...
