    Need a genius to decode this message

    He's basically saying "you can't learn to swim by reading a book, at some point you need to get into the water to understand what's being taught here" Everything else is basically his version of a motivational speech - saying it's good to try and learn from failures but don't expect miracles...

    Logo design - feedback appreciated :-)

    3 is probably my vote, but honestly I'm not really enamored with any of them. Nothing wrong with a minimalist logo but there's minimalist and then there's simple, and think this is a bit too simple. Maybe if you mixed an L into the logo so it's an S and an L? Maybe something using negative...

    0$ to 1000000$ in 12 Months! (Ride Along)

    Is there a reason you aren't able to get on Upwork from India? If Fiverr is "wait and see" and Upwork is "you get what you ask for", it seems obvious which one you should focus on first.

    0$ to 1000000$ in 12 Months! (Ride Along)

    EXECUTION 
    Genuine question - are you afraid of actually taking on a customer and being responsible for something you create? Almost everything you list is "busy work" (called "action faking" around here) that doesn't require you to actually get anything done. Your action steps, IMHO, should look like...

    High Ticket Quality CBD Oil Business - how would you go about it? (some unconventional ideas)

    IDEA 
    For those curious, The OP was confusing mark-up with margin. Markup, as a percentage, is simply what percentage of your cost you've added to hit your price. At 100% markup, you've doubled your cost because you've added 100% of your cost to hit your price. Example: $10 cost + 100% markup ($10...

    0$ to 1000000$ in 12 Months! (Ride Along)

    EXECUTION 
    Sure: You seem to have "shiny object syndrome" and are basically the definition of a wantrepreneur, right now anyway. From your intro: - You've never held a job - You couldn't finish college, twice, and apparently couldn't even complete a single paper. - You thought you could learn coding...

    The Undercover Billionaire: Building a $1m business in 90 days

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Obviously I'm not not Kak, but I've read enough first hand accounts to share some details about how many of these shows work behind the scenes. Here's the short version: Just about everything you see is a lie. Gasp, shock, I know... Rather than try to remember them all, I just grabbed some...

    I was going into real estate, but...

    REAL ESTATE 
    Ever consider rent to own? It's a more difficult and involved process but you'd be helping people out and making more profit at the same time. It also gives you an active role instead of a passive role since you're constantly turning over properties. If you ever wanted out - just let the...

    Someone Wants To Buy My Youtube Channel

    While it's impossible to tell based on the information - that message looks and feels like someone who doesn't know what they are doing and I'd bet dollars to donuts they don't want to spend more than $50 or so on this. Maybe a bit more but I'd honestly be surprised if it wasn't insultingly low...

    Tackling ASMR INDUSTRY

    EXECUTION 
    Sounds like you want to reinvent the wheel. I think a better approach would be to reach out to sound designers / engineers, perhaps especially for movie sound effects, and ask them what types of microphones work best to record the types of sounds you are trying to capture. Sound isn't a...

    tips on how to overcome shyness

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Yup. Everything I mentioned is a reinforcing cycle. Smiling = people smiling back at you, people going out of their way for you, and starting more enjoyable conversations and interactions. You feel valued and like you have worth. You begin to accept that others are happy to see you and you...

    tips on how to overcome shyness

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Very small, easy things to implement that helped me go from socially awkward / anxious to outgoing and a social butterfly: 1. Care about your appearance. Many shy people tend to have this "sheltered" look to them. Messy, uncut, unstyled hair, inconsistent shaving habits, mismatched outfits...

    High Ticket Quality CBD Oil Business - how would you go about it? (some unconventional ideas)

    IDEA 
    Just for clarification - I don't think anyone is trying to attack you. This is a business forum and you're getting feedback from other business people. You don't have to accept or even like the advice and criticism given, but do understand it's all from a place of trying to help. We all want...

    High Ticket Quality CBD Oil Business - how would you go about it? (some unconventional ideas)

    IDEA 
    I'm not an expert - I had assumed alcohol was present in an alcohol extraction, although that really wasn't my main point. The main point I was trying to make was from a marketing standpoint and average consumer perception. There are folks who will actively avoid anything that says "alcohol" in...

    High Ticket Quality CBD Oil Business - how would you go about it? (some unconventional ideas)

    IDEA 
    Yeah, I totally agree here. While I'm not huge into the CBD stuff, I am vaguely familiar with Cannabis extracts where CO2 is largely considered one of the "safest for ingestion" methods of extraction out there because there's zero residual catalyst left in the final product - it just...

    Looking to start dropshipping CBD products (UK)

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    You'll have to forgive this place. It can seem needlessly harsh to newcomers. For starters - this forum is an incredible resource of knowledge but something almost everyone here shares is knowledge of the two books written by MJ Demarco that the forum was basically built on: 1. The...

    How to turn $1 into $70 in under 5 minutes

    EXECUTION 
    It's not all on you - there's two parts to this. Perceived value is always, always, always from the customer's point of view. They are the ones spending money so they are the ones who decide if an offering is worth the price (the price matches their perception of what the price should be)...

    How to turn $1 into $70 in under 5 minutes

    EXECUTION 
    In an open and free market, when perceived value doesn't meet or exceed the asking price - a sale doesn't happen. In fact - perceived value was PERFECTLY displayed in this transaction because the original offer of $99 was rejected by the buyer. The buyer then countered with their true perceived...

    Girlfriend pregnant on execution

    HOT! 
    I started my first business when my son was 3 and my daughter was 1. I then went on to start two more businesses. Having kids isn't an excuse and if you didn't want kids in the first place there were myriad ways you could have prevented that...

    How do we track calories burned?

    HEALTH 
    A little vague and without context but I had a moment, googled it, and found it interesting, so here's some extra info for those curious: "MET" is short for "metabolic equivalent" and is defined as the ratio of the work metabolic rate to the resting metabolic rate. One MET is defined as 1...
