    EXECUTION 
    Thanks for taking the time to post an update. Maybe the way to go is to approach some blogs or other micro-media and offer a percentage of profits in exchange for marketing help?

    How I realized 'I don't have time' is bullshit

    INTRO 
    Time for some real talk. You've identified a need and a potential solution. However, I don't see you mentioning any experience teaching. There's a very strong relationship between the value you offer (or at least the ability to be perceived at offering value) and the return you get from your...

    How do you inspire creativity?

    MINDSET 
    I'm not sure what the difference is between these two mental activities. In my mind, looking for solutions to problems is the same thing as "trying to come up with something." Most million dollar ideas seem to come to people who work in a particular industry long enough to understand the needs...

    Does anyone else dislike the "Startup" community?

    There's obviously nothing wrong with someone being involved in something that they draw value from. But one must also learn to separate business value from entertainment value. The problem with a lot of "entrepreneurial" events is that they are entertainment disguised as value. At one point, I...

    How many action fakes can the fastlane come up with??

    GOLD! HOT! CHAT 
    There's definitely a time and place where money doesn't need to be worried about. Let's say that you have an idea for a niche piece of software that will save a certain niche category of businesses a lot of time/money. The problem it would solve is too small for established software companies...

    Hey guys. Here's everything I did today in pursuit of my business goals. Woke up at 6AM. Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise. Made a pot of coffee. Poured coffee into a cup. Arranged paper, pens and pencils on my desk. Realized that I didn't have any blue pens...

    Does anyone else dislike the "Startup" community?

    RANT 
    I went to one such startup event (a dinner and poorly planned "group discussion") and that was enough for me. The people were friendly and it wasn't a terrible option for some casual socializing, but as far as business goes, there wasn't any value that I could see myself extracting from...

    Here's a list of words that I hate: podcast: somehow everything is a podcast these days, even if it is hosted on Youtube, never downloaded and saved to a physical user-end device and no one owns an iPod anymore. entrepreneur: I'm technically an entrepreneur, but this word is the last one I...

    Hello From Beijing

    INTRO 
    Hi, I'm a 30 year old Canadian originally from southern Ontario. After a semester of university, it became obvious to me that I wasn't going to learn the skills I would need to know to be competitive in real life by spending time inside a classroom. So, although I finished up the degree...
