    Still works...as long you don't send out cookie-cutter proposals, actually READ the job listing and understand enough of your skill to come up with great solutions for the client. For me, freelancing is simply like contractor work-- as with plumbers, electricians, welders, etc. You are selling...

    Hello everybody

    INTRO 
    There ARE opportunities. But you need to clear up your mindset, by meeting with different people who can challenge you. I think we have to consider where are we spending MOST of our time? Where do we find our friends? Why do we pick them? I find many interesting people with interesting jobs...

    Eek how did I miss this thread? Also I missed reading further down your profile...but good to have another Malaysian here. Pardon me. :innocent: :halo: International schools can be great, as they offer O-levels and A-levels. You'll be aiming for private universities. Malaysia has no shortage of...

    Reddit starts charging for API access, fiasco ensues...

    EXECUTION 
    The sad thing is that mods for many subreddits rely on the 3rd party apps to help filter out the spam. If the mods can't do their jobs, let's say the toxicity we see on Reddit today will be like a fart in the wind, compared to what is to come. And if the more popular subreddits decide to...

    Here in my country, I'm noticing one too many folks hop into...selling Nivana funeral services. Although the payout can be real lucrative with the moolah from the burial plot payment plan, Buddhist rituals and hospitality...I can't see why people would wanna stick long-term with it. Funerals...

    My take on the usage of the old iPhone/iPad icons was to initially give the users something they were still comfortable with, instead of throwing in a totally new interface that throws everyone out of whack. It's the developers and the first adopters that have to answer HOW Vision will look...

    Why is mentor important in our journey?

    MINDSET 
    Thanks for sharing the life story! We used to have threads here in this forum, talking about how it's way better to go without a mentor, and to just learn from books or online courses (the ones that only give you some videos and slides, that is). Folks somehow think its a lot cheaper and...

    Always remember that the heart of an entrepreneur is to always solve problems, and to provide better results for others. Even if you work in a job, you have to do these things too. Of course, the entrepreneur has much more responsibilities, tools and systems to handle. It IS possible even for...

    I hear you... I dunno how I myself survived statistics. Shit gets real robotic at times, until you forget that the data you are doing models on are human. Maybe that is how the corporate overlords who look at the stats all day lose their humanity lol. But we have no choice...the experiments...

    Marketing: Gap in the Market?

    MARKETING 
    I'm all for better communication to customers. If you are selling a high-ticket online course, or some complex electronics...you definitely want your customers to use them correctly. With the right expectations and beliefs. With that, your offer WILL work...and everyone is happy. Some...

    This reminds me that tomorrow is my first day volunteering for usher duty at church... ...something I've NEVER done before. It can be considered a mega-church, with at least a thousand folks attending over this weekend. I still don't consider being a 'people person' one of my strengths...

    The funny thing is that I read both you and Black Dragon's stuff, and I found myself nodding my head at both. I can get the importance of working with the wife as a team...and tough leadership too. Especially with difficult stuff, like cutting down on the lifestyle they are comfy with. The...

    What was MJ DeMarco's Relationship Rule?

    NOTABLE! HEALTH QUESTION 
    I'll just add one more: Meeting with the parents. Parents from BOTH sides. I know there's a lot of general hate for the in-laws-to-be, but I believe getting to know them better goes a long way. If the parents are elderly, and you can work together to take them on trips, or eat-outs, that's...

    Thanks so much for having patience with us younger folks. Honestly, I feel my generation is lost. Just as it's easy these days to just log onto a Forum full of successful people or start a gig, it's easier than ever to crash into depression, toxic habits and financial tragedy with just a few...

    Do you think investing in the West is a good idea?

    INVESTING 
    I find most analysts in my region leaning towards a future 'multipolar' world, where the USD doesn't take all the cake, and many other regional currencies like Renmimbi and Euro take more economic clout in their localized regions. Which actually doesn't sound like doomsday to me. It actually...

    Welcome to the Forum, and thank you for sharing! Really sorry you had to face quite the tough culture back at home. We do have to understand where the folks are coming from though...that's probably the only thing they have ever known in their lives. What they think will give them financial...

    Huh? Andrew Tate trash-talking? I didn't see any of that on OP's post...and as of writing, I didn't see that the post was edited anyways to hide something. But I'll add to the convo: I'd prioritize humility...and keeping to your word. When you promise you can achieve X result for someone, or...

    Get Sh*t Done by Jeffrey Gitomer. (he also wrote The Little Red Book of Selling, another hit) Probably the first book in a LONG time I managed to read entirely cover-to-cover. While it's real weird that I am reading another productivity book, instead of something else MORE technical, I...

    We need more empathy. We need love in our hearts, to understand how much the other person might be going through. And here on the Forum, I think we should consider as many options as we can, especially when we have always valued making good life choices. If we have enough strength to do...
