    Do You Discount to Friends and Family?

    This is a tough one for me @JScott. I too would like to give my services away for free. I have not in the past because I really needed the money. I wish I could have, as I am naturally a generous person. My wife takes a practical approach to this - and it was her family that this issue came...

    How “The Millionaire Fastlane” made me turn down a once in a lifetime offer and start my own journey

    INTRO 
    I go YEARS between truly inspiring quotes to live by. THANK YOU for THIS!!! I can use this right now! My wife thinks I should "tame down" because I am too driven. In her eyes, I am stressed and unhappy. I've told her that my energy is not "confined" to one small area, and I cannot turn it...

    Am I in the right business? Perspective from an Artist

    Of course, I agree with everything you say. In trying to make my point, I could not find what I would consider a great painting of a lion that invoked excitement. There is a huge void of exciting lion artwork, so you can add that to your list of ideas to pursue. The main style of painting is...

    Do you have health insurance?

    I used to think there was no enforcement too. I was wrong. Below is a clip a friend took on his i-phone the day they came after me. It isn't pretty - it never is. I made it out. I got to the choppa!

    Yes I do. I set daily and hourly goals as well. I also have a written list of things to accomplish, in order of importance, in addition to defined goals. Sometimes things "to do" fall outside a specific goal, so my list helps. If you want to achieve laser focus, and don't have a perfect...

    Am I in the right business? Perspective from an Artist

    Wow James - your talent overflows. Your painting skills are stunning. I am somewhat of an artist myself, and definitely an art lover. When my wife and I take cruises, we attend their art auctions, which are always fun. On our last cruise we bought a beautiful set, done by Peter Nixon. He...

    INTRO 
    You are a great writer, and full of passion. I can only add one comment I heard long ago, but it is so powerful that it steers my thinking and actions. Here it is: "It is not the things you do in life that you regret, but the things you didn't do." I think you have no choice but to do what...

    EXECUTION 
    You have very defined goals. You know your strengths. You freely admit your weaknesses. Hell, I'd say you're ahead of a lot of people right there! And you have a great idea that can be profitable. Go man go! The only one that can convince you that you can't do that is you - and I just...

    How do I Price this?

    I would approach this as a lawyer on contingency would. Or, for another example, Howard Stern's deal on satellite radio. Lawyers only get paid if they win, and Howard Stern got a huge bonus based on performance stats, which he met, by the way. Both of these deals have one thing in common...

    This is what 60 Pounds (27 KGS) Looks Like

    GOLD! 
    SO glad to see your post Vig ~ Your original post pushed me to start my own journey to get in shape too. So far, in 9 weeks and 6 hours, I've lost 35 pounds. I can't remember when I felt this good (and I'm still 50 pounds heavier than you are!). I can only imagine how you feel, as you are...

    The hardest part of opening a franchise is doing the first one. After that, you just rinse and repeat. Same with customers. You know you can do it. The hard part is over. WaY tO Go!

    Lots of people with degrees can't get a decent job. We're all going to die. Life is hopeless. And my momma is fat. Thanks for the vote of no confidence. Now I remember why I get my news off the internet - it doesn't drag me down. We're all going to die. That's a fact, but I don't want to...

    I never play the cards in poker - I play the players. If I limited my winnings to only the times I had great hands, I would be a lousy player indeed. Losers think it's all about luck - winners know it's all about strategy. You certainly ARE in a position to negotiate. You always have that...

    Companies are well aware of using skype. If they are serious, and it's for an important position, and want a live interview, they will foot the bill for travel, hotel, etc. Could be a nice mini-vacation, not to mention that when you get to that point, things are dead serious, which is a very...

    GREAT quote. I'm a quote person. This one is going on the wall! You might appreciate how I explain how odds don't faze me: I once faced odds of over five million to one, and I won. Once I did that, I realized I could do anything. The five million to one odds that I overcame was when I was...

    You are right, but that's only part of the story. Success may seem elusive, but you are not missing it by much. I don't know how to bake a cake, but I'll use that as an example anyway. Your strengths of "working hard" is one ingredient of success. That's usually not quite enough, but it is a...

    You youngsters are gullible. I'm not 64, as my profile says. But I am a lot older than you. Haven't you ever made a profile that portrays you as a 25 year old blonde bombshell, just to see how the young bucks make a fool of themselves? You should try it. Trolling. Thanks for changing your...
