    Diary of Opening A New Business

    NOTABLE! 
    Awesome to see an update here! Congrats on the sale - it sounded like your heart had already moved on anyways, so I'm sure it is a positive thing even if you didn't hit 100 million. I'm looking forward to the next thread as well.

    The Desert Is Tough

    Man, it never ends. Just take it in stride - every step you take is one further away from the herd. You'll look back at this and laugh

    Recommended learning for starters?

    Remember: It is a consumer mentality to think "what do I need to make this happen" It is a producer mentality to think "What can I do to make this happen"

    Recommended learning for starters?

    Hi there You need to start a business, and stick with it. Make it work. Learn as you go. Never stop learning. I started my business with less than $500. I have a full time job, 2 young kids, a wife, 99 problems, and am a board member on the PTA. I help everyone I can. If I can do this...

    Yeah, this is all a process - and any process needs a beginning. Each experience brings new knowledge.

    How do I get rid of this constant anxiety?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Your anxiety is creative energy that is un-channeled and just building within you. You are not producing enough to be satisfied. You will never totally be able to get rid of this, because it is basically a form of self-accountability. You need this if you plan to push yourself. Instead of...

    Ongoing Terrorist Attack on Canadian Parliament

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Anybody can be radicalized though cultural manipulation, and I think that this thread demonstrates that to some degree. You have free-thinking people from the first world saying that we should nuke an entire country because of this minority of psychopaths? I imagine that this is pretty much...

    Words from a pimp - Hustlers vs Suckers

    MINDSET 
    Dude I love this. Great stuff. This goes a little deeper for me as well - I feel like when you really get something, in the core of who you are, you can see the reflection of it in everything. When you can see reflections of truth in a book like that, that shows a deeper understanding. I'm...

    Why I don't need a billion dollars

    HOT! MINDSET 
    The idea is always better than the reality. Your life is the sum of all of your thoughts, actions, and choices - If something doesn't feel right, shift these. People always think that some huge, polaric change is what will create the life that they want. The reality is that you are probably...

    Why I don't need a billion dollars

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Honestly, my goals don't have a direct monetary value attached to them BUT, you could totally attach a monetary value to ALL of them and total that up. It's kinda all how you look at it. It is human nature for it to never be enough. It is exceedingly rare to find someone that is content...

    Worried Dad - Need "Fastlane" Insight

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Man, this thread is great. Tons of great perspectives here - most of which run way deeper than where it started. To me, the most important thing has to be that your son is totally committed to making this happen. If that is the case, the circumstances will hardly matter. The only thing that...

    Tormented by Procrastination and Doubt, Advice?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    #1 You gotta commit - no matter how much you wanna quit, no matter how alone and stupid you feel, you have to realize that giving up is like suicide of the soul. Realize it is a process. You will never "get there". Start finding and using any and every tool you can to make yourself the best...

    Does It Hurt Bad Enough?

    Man, posts like these are the like that single ray of sunlight that makes it all the way through the trees to that tiny patch of dirt in the undergrowth. When you are that little sprout it makes all the difference

    Can you mail a small sample item in a letter envelope USPS

    If you go down to the post office, they keep these things behind the counter. Called postal clerks. Ask one of them and they should be able to answer your questions. All kidding aside, you will have to pay more than a stamp I think, because they have rules for stuff that cant go through the...
