    Workout Journal: My 98 Day Cut

    HEALTH 
    Looks like 99% of your posts are in this thread to update us on your weight loss progress on a daily basis. It's cool that you're losing weight and showing us what you're doing but out of curiosity - what else are you working on? Do you have any business goals? Any projects in the work? Even...

    What Qualities to Look for in a Manager?

    PEOPLE 
    I've never hired anyone, so other opinions are likely more valuable, however I'll throw my hat into the ring: There's a great management book called "First, Break All The Rules: What The Worlds Greatest Managers Do Differently". The book is the result of 80,000 interviews with managers over 25...

    Fastlane mindset is in all directions even REDDIT!

    MINDSET 
    Yes, Reddit is filled with very smart people across a huge range of fields. Reddit is my 'go to' resource for all things tech related, for example. I've yet to not find an answer to even the hardest technical question there. Similarly they have one of the most positive homebrewing sections on...

    What can I do on a daily basis to grow as an entrepreneur?

    HOT! 
    Well you have to understand that there are two parts to being successful: 1. How you live 2. How you work Both of these are highly related. When was the last time you a fat, lazy, cheeto eating, redbull downing, netflix binging, video game addict start a million dollar businesses...

    VeChain Thor (VET) Cryptocurrency Thread

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    So it looks like current this is listed as "VEN" on exchanges like binnance. And it looks like all VEN will be converted into VET in the next month. And it looks like anyone with VET will be given THOR for holding VET. Sooooooo if I wanted to buy some of this today I'd just buy any amount of...

    I emailed 40 local organisations asking what their problems and frustrations are

    Honestly, I feel bad now for not saying this as well. Any action is more action than most folks take. Excellent job at taking the first step towards your goals!

    Chess And Life : The analogy

    MINDSET 
    I just saw it in "new" - technically the guy above me re-opened this thread up. Although yes, I do play. Not often (because nobody else I know plays other then my 7 year old son) but yes, I love Chess and wish I had more of an opportunity to get better at it.

    NOTABLE! MARKETING 
    I may be in the minority on this but am I the only one who thinks it's super cringey to ask random folks who don't know you "Hey, what are problems you have that I can solve?" I realize it's what all the books say, but I do really feel like they are trying to tell you the IDEA of what to do...

    What is the BEST "value" you ever paid for?

    From what I understand about most gyms, shouldn't you just put your music on it's loudest setting, turn the speakerphone on, and proceed to curl in the squat rack? :)

    Handwritten thank you note to customers

    MARKETING 
    I've received some pretty realistic looking "hand written" notes from local real estate agents. I'm 99% sure they are copies of an original but there were some great credibility indicators that would likely fool most people: - blue ink, - non standard paper size - folded paper like you'd do...

    Well after finishing a book in 1 day (132 pages, so a short book), I can totally see the appeal of the Kindle now. Never understood why anyone would get one when Smart Phones are so prevalent but now I totally get it. Firstly, it doesn't strain my eyes. It's VERY easy to read in any light...

    Re-introducing myself the right way

    INTRO 
    Word of advice - Spend those 3 months building something NOW. If you quit, and then start, the only thing you've done is shoot yourself in the foot. Where's the startup capital coming from? How are the bills getting paid before you have sales? If you take profits out of the business to live on...

    If You Were A Moderator

    HOT! 
    There have been some absolutely fantastic threads started by new users that started as gigantic "mini novel" posts. Also, the problem with post count limits and such is they are super easy to game and encourages the wrong kinds of behaviors. If you need 1,000 posts before you hit some...

    Is this stealng?

    Not nearly enough information to go off of. Is it a generic product (like gloves, hats, dog harness, etc...) or is it a unique product that likely holds patents and significant brand recognition (like a Keurig coffee maker)? Are you copying the original 1:1 but adding a small thing or are you...

    The Beginner's guide to Sales + AMA

    MARKETING AMA 
    I'm pretty good at cold emails but a big question I have is: why aren't you picking up the phone? The phone works WONDERS at talking to small companies. If you have a good value-add, you are shooting yourself in the foot by filling up their email inbox asking who to speak to. Also - your...
