    How do you effectively set goals?

    MINDSET 
    I've been thinking lately, maybe the goals I'm setting for myself are too vague and not specific enough. All successful people set goals, and people who set goals tend to be more successful. For whatever reason, when you feed your mind a specific vision and goal things begin to align (or so...

    These Protestors Are Making Me So Mad

    Sadly it won't be used for something constructive. That's a beautiful way of putting it. You have assumed full control and responsibility over your own life. Most people always need something to blame for their shitty lives, the government, God, their parents, etc.

    These Protestors Are Making Me So Mad

    Hopefully there's no lock. It's not an attempt to attack anyone's views or beliefs, just how they express them. This world is decaying and people have become senseless irrational animals. I'm being hyperbolic but I'm just mad lol

    These Protestors Are Making Me So Mad

    I have no intention to start any political discussion of any manner, but... Goddamn, all these protesters need to get a life. Rather than spending time on improving their own lives or making a contribution to an organization that actually has an impact on policy, they go around singing...

    The Fail Thread

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Failures are what make a great story. The success stories we read about would be so fuc*king boring had it not been for the failures. Imagine a story that goes like, "Yeah me and my friend started a company and within a year we grossed 10 million dollars". Sounds cool and everybody would love...

    How much sleep do you get?

    HEALTH 
    If you don't listen to your body you will pay the price. And if you're sacrificing your sleep then you don't manage your time well. That being said, I rarely get my 8 hrs of sleep lol

    Why Selling Doesn't Work

    MARKETING 
    If you don't mind me asking, what exactly is that goal and how specific is it? I know each situation is unique, but when you break it down and go down to the very foundation, what remains? Is it as simple as "just getting the sale"? Or shit, do you even care about the sale? I know some...

    Why Selling Doesn't Work

    MARKETING 
    I was just describing a different approach and tactic when it comes to sales. In no way am I advocating being passive. Like almost things in life, to get what you want you have to be relentless and assertive (but with grace). I'm sure you know this more than me since you have much more sales...

    Why Selling Doesn't Work

    MARKETING 
    I don't think either of us are right or wrong, but lets just assume you're right here. Even if customers do like being sold to, I think there are two approaches or mental frames that people use when it comes to selling. One comes from a position of neediness and low status. Like, "hey buy...

    Why Selling Doesn't Work

    MARKETING 
    Everyone hates being sold to. I don't know about you, but when I go to a store and a salesperson approaches me I immediately try to find a way out of the situation. A sigh followed by a thought in my head that says "Shit, man. Leave me alone" is usually my gut reaction. Whenever I receive a...

    I don't understand how good copy works

    MARKETING 
    Nah I'm more amazed by the hows than the whats, I'm not really concerned with the product itself. What amazes me is how they word their copy, how they present their offers, how simple it is, and how they go about making their pitch

    I don't understand how good copy works

    MARKETING 
    Sometimes I read sales letters, like one of Gary Halberts or Craig Clemens, and I just think, "this is so fuc*ing stupid. How this shit sell?" Not a knock on their ingeniousness, but it leaves me so perplexed. It's so simple, at times so corny, and yet so effective. I am going to find a way...

    Listen, I understand where you're coming from since your wife is a vet and all, but I don't know your wife nor am I speaking about her lol. I'm merely speaking from my personal experience and expressing the sentiments that millions of other Americans feel as well. Every profession has their...

    I said I was speaking in general terms, I don't know anything about your wife lol. This is based on my personal experience and most who live around me But I don't understand your argument, so because they made a CHOICE to go to college and get into debt its ok for them to treat clients like...

    You're right, we can see right through their bullshit now You're one of the lucky ones, I've encountered scummy money hungry doctors for the most part. They treat you like commodities and not human beings. It's one thing if this were a lawyer, but your health is the important thing you have...

    Just came back from the vet, I know they're not a traditional doctor but the same rule applies. These people, and I'm generalizing here, will do anything to make a few extra bucks off you. "Oh looks like you need this vaccine, oh it looks like there's an issue here too", "hey come back next...

    Marijuana entrepreneurship; industry discussion

    HOT! 
    I don't know, the legalization of marijuana is more of a state issue than it is a federal issue. The state I live in has been historically socially conservative, espiecially on issues like this. But in the last 5 years things have been changing dramatically. We'll see, either way I wanna...
