    You can't go wrong with an attitude like that my friend And trust me, I have had a few of those days myself What truly makes us who we are isn't what we tell ourselves we believe, it's how we respond to life when it happens

    Thanks Allen The thread you shared reminded me of my most "legendary" display of customer service so far. I had a guy that had found me on reddit and was interested in my products. He actually posted a thread on there asking if anyone had tried my products. My business was about a month old...

    Hey, I was talking with another member and he suggested I put the following story up here: So about a week ago I had my first local sale come through the site. I've had plenty of local sales, but these are all pretty much done person to person. Anyways, I offer the option for free delivery in...

    I think too many businesses see the product as the end of the line for the customer. This is a totally flawed perspective. The truth is, your relationship pretty much begins with the customer adopting your product. It's like meeting a girl. To many guys think that "getting the girl" is the...

    Being in relationship with someone who has mental illness

    Im just going to give you my honest brutal opinion Almost 10 years ago, at 21, I married a woman I loved because I bought the line that that is all it takes - with concerns like you feel 10 years later, after 2 beautiful children, I still don't know if this is going to work. DO NOT SPEND YOUR...

    Yeah I totally feel you here man After the last few years, I feel like I have lost almost all ability to judge others - and gotten that much harder on myself. I think a lot of it came with having kids. Seems like every time I get that urge, i dig a little deeper and see a reflection of a part...

    We all come to this forum because we believe in ourselves. We believe that we possess something at our core that sets us apart - something that makes us above average. Lately I have been reflecting on the what it is that actually makes me happy. Not happy in the fantasy world of reaching some...

    Dealing with lonliness

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Oh I understand, and I don't actively seek being alone. For me it has been part of shifting the course of my life and leaving the old behind. It has made me a stronger person. I could not do it without the great people in my life - some of which are right here on this forum. All I am saying...

    Dealing with lonliness

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Hey man, I am extremely isolated in this sense as well. I have been so for some time. Focus on you. Be who you want to be. You have to become your life's purpose otherwise you will never find satisfaction. You can have tons of people in your life and still be alone. Know yourself and you...

    AMA 
    I'd love to hear your thoughts on selling a product that people don't buy on impulse. A great example would be my former employer. We sold industrial transfer pumps. This isn't something that people really shopped for, and had no reason to buy unless there was a direct need/application - but...

    What are you struggling with right now?

    HOT! 
    I am struggling with becoming who I want to be and not who I am - and the growing pains that come with it. Its like pulling a dead body out of my life - or maybe a life out of a dead body. Still, it's better than the alternative.
