    Diving into Code - all help and criticism welcome

    EXECUTION 
    I've been in two worlds about coding, on one hand what a time suck and why even do it, on the other hand who is anyone kidding by saying that their code is going to be good enough in every situation I ever require it for. I think there are two false arguments that govern the coding dilemma That...

    What's ethical?

    MINDSET 
    It depends who's faces are you stepping on I think you never step on customers Rarely on competitors Sometimes on people who are "operators" Often on BSers I think biz is more about controlling anger, but FIRST you gotta be true to yourself and your customers so you have some to control. In...

    What's ethical?

    MINDSET 
    I take time when things matter to others. I don't set rules to venus flytrap them. I amplify that behaviour in my business. The governator probably meant self imposed rules or doubts aspoused by others.

    Treating Your Life Like a Business

    MINDSET 
    Something I have learned is to make work feel like you are not doing j#ck all. Today I'm getting stuff done, but I feel like I'm doing nothing, just whistling and listening to music, diving through diligence stuff, mocking up campaigns, writing some stuff. I don't feel busy. Thing with friends...

    MINDSET 
    @Mattie Well color me impressed :artist: You've really gone through a crucible and learnt from it, that is something really epic. :notworthy: I am glad my business stress will last less than 4 years, I don't think I could starve that long, haha Interesting how relationships and business...

    What's ethical?

    MINDSET 
    Great :happy: :jimlad: "Yargh!!!" I feel a lot of people discount the "semi-spiritual" nature of biz because its so scary and dangerous to not have money. Building a strong ethical base whilst bootstrapping and virtually starving is pretty hard and I think that when people think they see a...

    The double sided blade of unrealistic expectations

    MINDSET 
    @Mattie Exactly, you got it 100% Its easier said than done but keeping in the moment like that is where you have to grow your comfort and lifestyle. If you BUILD your lifestyle in the slowlane, you are going to face slowlane quibbles. Its scary to live free and in the moment, and its taken a...

    The double sided blade of unrealistic expectations

    MINDSET 
    I've been thinking on this for the past two weeks due to a couple of "altercations" happening around me financially; one guy trying to underpay me, a lady taking up way too much of my time immediately pulling out of something I assumed was stable. Those altercations really put me under serious...

    What's ethical?

    MINDSET 
    I think that by the time you are asking the question its probably too late. Shortcuts, objectification of customers, directly assuming money in = value recieved, using "rules" to supplant actual understanding. For me I spend a lot of time empathising with customers, sitting down with them and...

    My EMBARRASSING copy from 2 years ago...redone today...

    MARKETING 
    Big improvement. I've had those first emails a lot and ignored them so fast. Second one said "you are probably a good business" and went past rapport building/getting us on the same team a bit too fast. But it is much better from what little I know :smoking:

    A Golden Truth... There are No Experts

    Fascination is a big driver for me right now. I've had to develop it, but its useful for investigating biz opportunities much closer. In the past doubt used to help push my motivation more than finding "interest" in the seemingly mundane (before I built a tolerance to it), especially in the mid...

    Most valuable programming language for online marketers?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Probably ruby on rails or something like that. Ideally you want it to look good and work with very low investment of time. Ror is just ruby leveraged and automated to make stuff quicker. Twitter was started with it and got to about 10million customers before they built it out with a proper...

    Can entrepreneurship really be taught?

    I feel NOW like an entreprenuer, it was forged. Quite a painful process but got it done. I do all that jazzy stuff these days, instantly connecting with people and seeing opportunities. Its like anything, some have less road blocks, others have a reason to get past them, and the rest just don't...

    Selling DISNEY products?

    Buy low, sell high, is the only thing that makes sense. Counterfeits, unlawfully using the brand of either frozen or disney is illegal. Opening a store that houses disney products is probably legal, but saying you are a disney or frozen store is illegal. If you only sell frozen stuff out of...

    He is for sure a lot closer than before he had a tier one site up and going that his customers love.
