    being serious when it is appropriate

    MINDSET 
    It could possibly the pseudobulbar effect; you may want to speak with a psychiatrist. The difference between the Rock and you is that he only smiled. As reactions, laughter (and crying) are impossible to control, and take a huge amount of willpower to reign in. It might be better to simply let...

    Light vs. Dark -Thoughts On Controlling Emotions

    MINDSET 
    There's a trite quote that goes something to the effect that successful people respond to situations, whereas unsuccessful people react. In my experiences, this is one of those useless saying that doesn't do anything except give the person lecturing a chance to put on a smug smile. Reactions...

    What are your yearly reading Habits?

    First, the resounding call on this forum, and indeed most entrepreneur discussions is to take action. However, taking action without knowledge can lead to a lot of wasted and unnecessary effort. (To be fair, reading without taking action is mental masturbation). Continual reading and learning...

    He didn't need to. When it comes to finding new and exciting ways to hurt others, humans excel.

    I have traffic but no conversions?

    Having a lot of relevant content, of being able to prove to people you are an expert, is definitely a requirement for info-products. But you still need to market yourself because you're not the only player in the space.

    My Execution Plan

    EXECUTION 
    Anyone familiar with Pat Flynn's Niche Site Duel? It looks like a good tool to learn on, anyone with experience on it?

    I have traffic but no conversions?

    Those last 2 words, "to me", need to go. You need to focus on your customer's desires, not yours. I understand you see them as all connected. People do gain more confidence with weight loss, which does lead to better relationships. But there are plenty of fat people in relationships who simply...

    I have traffic but no conversions?

    Always try a stronger lead. Think AIDA - attention, interest, desire, action. Your opening doesn't entice me to read further. You're telling me about a product, but why should I care about it? I am a fan of opening with a question like, "Do you want a better life?" or a controversial...

    Exiting the Slowlane

    SLOWLANE EXECUTION 
    I can agree with this. I've changed jobs repeatedly the past 5 years. After about a year, I feel immensely dissatisfied and unfulfilled and I start looking again. I realized the issue is with me, I don't like the loss of control and lack of freedom in a regular job. Even though I do need to...

    My Execution Plan

    EXECUTION 
    So, a brief update. My plans with the dojo attendance fell through. A small failure, but that's to be expected. However, I was busy working on a contract with someone at Upwork, which I completed (and even got a small bonus.) This lead to another job with the same person for a larger project...

    taking a nap

    HEALTH 
    Yes, I am not self-employed and I do try to take a brief nap at work. It's perfectly normal for a person* to start to feel sleepy after 7 hours or so after waking up in the morning. As this usually coincides with lunch, you get the added effect of having to deal with the fact that your body is...

    MARKETING 
    This applies to any form of entertainment product, be it a game or a video series on Youtube, you need to get really good and making engaging content as opposed to marketing. Once you've got a hit, it will sell itself. You don't need to write sales copy for a game or a video as the entertainment...

    Can I have some guidance on business process visualization and skills acquisition please?

    Well, you've identified a problem, you don't know how to get started. You've identified a niche, people like you who want to get started. Solve that problem. Seriously. Your first business venture is going to fail. That's fine, accept it, and realize it fails because you're learning. So, think...

    What is this place?

    INTRO 
    Is this real life? Is this fantasy? Some people have mentioned the about page, I'll give another shortcut to the book itself: http://www.amazon.com/dp/0984358102/?tag=tff-amazonparser-20 I'd recommend reading it to understand the mindset.

    When did you give up your selfish desires?

    MINDSET 
    When I joined this forum, and actually participated in helping people without expecting anything in return. Total mindset shift from what others do for me to what can I do for others.

    Limitless

    EXECUTION 
    You're not Zuck. ;) But I think a golf shirt with your logo and either some slacks or clean jeans would work. But you need to be consistent.

    I've lost my identity as person (Legendary follows...)

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    There's a thread here from @MJ DeMarco about 7 ways to improve your life, I'd recommend reading it and applying it. As for your relationship issues, love is a verb, not a noun. You don't "fall in love" with someone, that's attraction. However, it seems you need to get over your ennui first...

    Try reading this: http://jamesaltucher.tumblr.com/post/132084071774/the-ultimate-guide-to-reinventing-yourself As for personal experience, yes I have gone through this, and it's still something I struggle with. My strategy is to be like the Roman god, Janus. Look to the past to see success...
