    Is this Doubt?

    MINDSET 
    When I am in a slump, I know I need to get something else in my head. If I have the same doubts/negativity going in my head too long, they will take over (stinking-thinking). I do something positive. Talk on the phone with someone that cheers me up, hang out and watch TV with my young son...

    Auction looks good. Can the Pi take advantage of the Class 10 speeds? Maybe show some benchmarks. I thought about selling the pre-installed SD cards but don't have the Linux experience. There is another person in UK that sells a whole set of Rasp Pi accessories. Cables, keyboards, mice, etc...

    Have you got any ideas to increase my traffic?

    IDEA 
    What about your mailing list? Does that bring the visitors in? Are you selling links in that? Doesn't bring in traffic but brings in money.

    Have you got any ideas to increase my traffic?

    IDEA 
    That is why I said I thought it was depreciated. The meta keywords were defined and those sounded like the keywords he was chasing. Keyword density - don't you want at least a few of your desired keywords on the front page? @Healthstatus: There are no H1 or H2 tags defined

    Working at a 9-5, kind of insulting experience today. How would YOU react?

    HOT! 
    You don't need to tell them ANYTHING. If they ask, be vague. Say you are saving it. Keep at it until you don't need the 9-5 anymore. Employers do not usually like workers to have outside jobs. They see it as a possible distraction when you are at work.

    kicked out, now what?

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    I don't know you but we are only hearing one side of the story. Parents do not wake up one day and decide to kick you out.

    Have you got any ideas to increase my traffic?

    IDEA 
    What are your analytics like? Bounce rate? Total time on site? What countries are visitors from? The main page doesn't render correctly in Firefox. I think that should be fixed ASAP. The search button is not integrated. The center column is lower than the sidebars. Who are you using for ads...

    Dragging my son onto the fastlane

    I have decided to wait until my son really shows interest. It will be a chore for him unless he is really excited about it.

    Hello! Meet 'dochustle'

    I have experience in these matters as well. I agree it is a bad path to go down, but it really is a good experience. I will eventually get around to documenting many of my experiences in an intro. Good luck to you. Read the forums and keep hustling.

    Dragging my son onto the fastlane

    I believe it was more of a general sense. He knows I have profits, but not big profits. I did go on to explain WHY they weren't big. The fun part for me was that I got to have a good conversation with him and try to get him thinking.

    Law of attraction, do you use it?

    MINDSET 
    I try to use it. It is hard to soar with the eagles when you hang with the turkeys.

    How do i reassure myself with my business partner?

    MINDSET 
    Instead of a partner, maybe you can think of him as an adviser. In my mind a mentor actually has experience in such business matters. You can also be his adviser.

    Critique this idea: Daily market updates via text message (and more!)

    IDEA 
    What country? In the US, I would believe someone already does this. There may be a market for this in China with its explosive cell phone adoption. I believe feature phones (no apps) are most popular there.

    Dragging my son onto the fastlane

    Had the craziest conversation with my son this morning that made me think of this thread. He was telling me why my previous eBay ventures were no good and I need to get something with more profit. He was partially correct, so I explained why my new ventures will be better. He is eleven. I have...
