    Get away from the wall.

    MINDSET 
    Taken from Hacker News, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11518795. The only thing that stops you from stepping away from the wall, from living the life YOU want to live, is to do the one thing that most people only dream about, but never do: start. Put one foot in front of the other.

    I'd go on an entrepreneur forum, ask them the question, and then simply act on the answers I was capable of doing.

    I'd guess the ability to defuse a situation with words and not fists.

    Even if you don't believe in yourself, do it any ways. What's the worst that could happen? Death? In that case, you won't care anymore.

    The literal definition of resiliency is the ability to hold yourself together despite your situation. Getting punched in the face is phony tough, crazy brave is being able to stand up to someone without having to resort to violence. Short of that, it's using enough force to stop the person and...

    QuitN6 Course Review

    Not sure where to put this, but I decided to try out Matt Stone's QuitN6 course. I'll use this thread to post my thoughts on it. I actually got this course so my wife and I could work through it, so she gets an idea of the stuff that occupies my brain. The first lesson is short, a 20 minute...

    Power Poses

    MINDSET 
    I've heard this. The most rendition was that women need to adapt a Wonder Woman pose in meetings. The way you hold yourself does impact how you see yourself. However, rather than use buzzwords like "power poses", it's just good posture. I recommend starting here...

    Same here, clever use of the glasses and kettlebell. The inclusion of the coffee cup tells me you know me.

    Am I wasting my time?

    Yeah, to echo @AustinS28 view, that "Welcome to Bora Skins" banner should probably go. That is prime real estate for product placement, sales announcements, etc. Also, your "Custom Text/Logo" menu item made me pause, since I thought it was a remnant of Shopify, and not an actual service...

    Atlas Shrugged

    BOOKS 
    This, by the way, is a common fallacy among technical and logical people; the belief that logic and rationality trump emotions. I speak from personal experience when I say this most definitely is not true. Dale Carnegie makes the bold claim that 85% of our success comes from our ability to...

    Atlas Shrugged

    BOOKS 
    That's probably the biggest reason why people are turned off by Rand; she was not a very personable woman. That comes through in her work. This also seems to run off on most objectivists. It's why I recommend people temper her works with Meditations, to take that edge off, since it's possible...

    The NFL's Personal Finance Class (Making Cash Last a Lifetime)

    EXECUTION 
    You're not the only one who thinks that way: https://twitter.com/ramit/status/717854407950467072 Rather than teach kids not to pursue sports, I'd rather see core financial literacy skills taught in schools.

    The NFL's Personal Finance Class (Making Cash Last a Lifetime)

    EXECUTION 
    That's very easy. The United States teaches nothing about financial literacy in schools; basic concepts such as budgeting and investing are ignored in favor of teaching us a series of skills we rarely use. Most these players are young and starstruck by the lifestyle. They get used to the...

    Atlas Shrugged

    BOOKS 
    Well, I've been avoiding reading either book due to fear. However, as Aristotle mentioned, “It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.” Then again, it has been some time since I was first introduced to either, and I already know I agree with her...

    How to take on a big SaaS project when you lack confidence

    MINDSET SAAS / APPS 
    I'd agree that getting paid is probably the most literal definition of product validation around. :) The size and the scope of the MVP just depend on a few factors. One is how good at marketing you are. It's definitely not something everyone enjoys doing. It also depends on your market...

    How to take on a big SaaS project when you lack confidence

    MINDSET SAAS / APPS 
    You state that validation isn't important, and then right here you essentially say you do it. You may not agree with the buzzwords, but the concept itself is sound: the sooner you can get something in front of potential customers, the sooner you ca identify if it's worth pursuing or if you need...

    Generalizing 2/3 of the population isn't a good idea, but in general, heterosexual women tend to find confident men who are good with babies and dogs as attractive. At least, the type of woman who's interested in a fulfilling, long term, stable relationship. Reading a book won't help you be...
