    Best books/videos on brain studies-neuroscience

    Richard Wiseman lectured at my uni. I thought merely by being in his presence I'd become as awesome as he is. Apparently, it doesn't actually happen that way. Terry Orlick's "The Pursuit of Excellence" was the first book that really switched me onto the power of the mind. It's focused around...

    Looking to attract high net worth individuals/business people

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I second, third and fourth (I stopped counting after 4... ) what everyone has said, but if you are really committed to this then I'd recommend you reach out to so HNWI that you've identified website issues with and fix it for them ... or at least explain how to do it. DO NOT PITCH and...

    Having massive struggles finding the way to becoming rich

    HOT! MINDSET 
    You sound exactly like me at 18. Actually, if I'm honest, you sound exactly like me at 21, 22, 23... you get the story. I was fixated on finding the thing that would make me all the money and a success. I had a print business, a design agency, I ran a personalised gift service, I had a...

    No I'm just a winner...

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Sounds more like a run of luck than a foolproof success plan to me and not one I'd advise anyone to take if they're struggling to make ends meet. One thing I will agree with is the mindset of taking action and looking towards success. If you're always looking to find something to trip you up...

    Getting in the "zone" or "flow"

    MINDSET 
    Brain.fm has worked really well for me for focus... that and the Hitman games soundtrack (don't ask me why it just does..). I still haven't mastered it yet though. In sport, I can get into a zone and be uber focused in seconds and nothing can knock me out of it for hours. In business, I can get...

    Friend keeps bringing up my failures

    There are two reasons that any of us push against people who keep criticizing up and what we're trying to do. We know they're actually right in what they're saying and we just don't want to hear it. We know that what we're doing is the right direction for us, we're not deluded about the effort...

    Hello , I am a serial entrepreneur from England ready to start a new venture with a new housing syst

    INTRO 
    Welcome to the forum! Great to see a fellow Brit in here. Noticed you say you're in real estate and looking to start a new venture involving housing systems. Is this something that you're already working on and have experience in or something completely new?

    What is the fastlaner spending mindset

    Awesome question. I can figure this out more by looking at the two different ways I've spent money Slowlaner - Spent recklessly either on quick fix solutions out of the life I didn't want to be or as a treat for having such a terrible life and putting up with it Fastlaner - Business wise, I...

    Deaf and Daft, getting my first sale

    EXECUTION 
    This is going to sound harsh - it's not meant to. I just recognise similar behaviour in myself. The problem a lot of us have is that we're fearful of change and what could happen if we jump in feet first... so our minds find something to fill the space in time when we could be doing something...

    12 Hours Is A Vacation

    EXECUTION 
    Here's how I see it - if you have your own business and it breaks you out in a cold sweat when you're not able to work on it or feel you HAVE to be working 18 hour days... you've got yourself a job that keeps you a prison If you work 18 hours a day, but could walk away from it and let others...

    What book are you reading? Right now. Post up!

    NOTABLE! HOT! BOOKS CHAT 
    Barking Up The Wrong Tree - Eric Barker. If you like Tim Ferriss and his approach to identifying outliers and reverse engineering what they're doing to find success this book will appeal to you. Disclaimer: I know Tim isn't the only one doing that, just likely to be one author many people...

    Is there special kinda genes ?!

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I'm loving the debate that's going on in this post. As a woman who comes from a non-entrepreneurial family from as far back as I can get, I would be inclined to say that the drive to succeed as an entrepreneur is neither down to genetics or gender. However, this thread has made me think about...

    LateToTheGame because I am late to this game!

    INTRO 
    Going full time could work out brilliantly for you, but a bit of advice for what it's worth. I've started businesses while working for others and also doing it full time. When I focused on it full time - it took me longer to get going!! Why? Because there was less pressure. I had all day so...

    I did something stupid today..

    I knew someone who made a fair profit by buying old Bose products on Ebay then sending them back to Bose to get the credit. Made a huge amount from it, but dried up after a while. You start to look a little odd when you're returning you 400th Bose item! Loving your work though. Customised...

    How My Biggest Failure Saved My Life And Business

    MINDSET FAILURE 
    I talk a lot of success but truth be told, I've failed. A lot. And one time hurt more than the rest. Savings ran out, money ran dry and I ended up taking on jobs in industries I hate with people I couldn't stand. I've lied to family and friends and told them things were bad, when in fact they...

    Time for another bold move? Should I boldly follow my intuition?

    MINDSET RANT 
    This is such a wise point and one to really sit with... and I mean sit with it a bit, decide you're still right and then go away and come back and sit with it more. I know it sounds stupid, but I can't tell you how many times I've been disillusioned with something, chucked it all in for...

    Andy's AdWords Course - Get found by the people already looking for you

    MARKETPLACE 
    Never doubted that for a moment! The more bulked out a course is, the more I'm convinced it's not that good and packed with filler content!!

    Andy's AdWords Course - Get found by the people already looking for you

    MARKETPLACE 
    @Andy Black - How did I miss you had a course. Quick question - would this course work well to train up a complete newbie? I'm training up a new staff member in social and paid advertising and so would be great if I could just hand the Adwords part over to "you"!

    Should I dumb down my content for people like @vigilante and @imgal?

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Ha! No offense taken. @Vigilante is much wiser and more consistent than me... though the good thing is that it's made me really competitive and want to truly be named alongside such names as his. In this defense, I actually don't think @AndrewNC meant offense by his title. We often have Skype...
