    A Mass of Mass Shootings... Guns? Or Mental Illness?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Pretty much this. You could say it's mental illness. But why are people ending up with mental illness? It's a cultural issue. Mass shootings are a symptom of cultural failings. Some people are extremely angry towards the system, attacking the innocent is one of the most natural ways to get...

    What business would you start if you had a ranch?

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE 
    I'd go figure out what your local farmer's market and restaurants want, and what they have too much of and definitely don't need more of. Do people still go nuts for microgreens?

    Banned off Medium.com (I think)

    Seems weird...I don't see why you'd get banned at all. I figured you were writing political stuff at first!

    @ChrisV I've never heard of IPIP, that was quite interesting. Funny that you link Peterson, he's great. I can't really disagree with anything you just said. IPIP/Big Five are extremely useful for business. Looking into it more, the IPIP is a measurement of development. Hence it's very useful...

    Can a commoditized business lead to a truly CENTS Fastlane business?

    Well if you're actually going to be building a painting company and not doing the painting yourself, can start in one area and expand it to many, I think it'd be fastlane and fit the unit expansion model.

    Monthly Recurring Costs/Expenses In Order to Start Web-Online Business

    Just budget $100/mo for your website. Should be overkill. I spend $36/mo for shopify, domain name, and custom email address. Then once you get going you'll see what it actually is and can adjust.

    @ChrisV I would say this is not an accurate understanding of MBTI. MBTI is never all or nothing, and whenever I want to know MBTI I want to know their specific breakdown. The way an INTJ that's 100% T compared to one that's 60% T behaves and thinks for example is different. MBTI also...

    Books for becoming a better storyteller?

    Currently reading Build a StoryBrand myself @Rawseed! Definitely helping me focus my brand and getting my wording to be way more clear.

    I will stop playing video games, watch porn, etc for 1 month.

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Giving up video games and porn at once? Goodluck to you. I'd pick just one, and once you've broken that habit, pick the other. I will say though, it's like being an addict of anything. You're never really an ex-addict. You either must abstain 100%, or you will probably find yourself getting...

    Value for employees other than money

    PEOPLE 
    I think you're missing the biggest thing in your list? Meaning and purpose! Give someone meaning and purpose and they will take a lot less if it's something they care about. 'Save the world/people' type stuff can be quite powerful.

    But dear @Walter Hay, Greed is Good. There is not a single bad thing about Greed itself. It is when Greed is divorced from compassion, empathy, and the serving of life that any bad may come of it, but for whatever strange reason Greed takes the blame, and serves as the scapegoat, but not the...

    Have Smartphones Destroyed Humanity?

    Absolutely, and that depression is caused first and foremost by mindset, not the tool!

    Have Smartphones Destroyed Humanity?

    HOT! 
    @ChrisV Seems like the issue there is people comparing themselves to others. That always leads to misery. Social media just makes it 10000% easier. One should only compare their current self to their previously selves. Never to others. A lot of this is a symptom of the death of religion and the...

    Have Smartphones Destroyed Humanity?

    HOT! 
    I could not agree more. Smartphones if anything merely exacerbate what people want to do. Those that want to be recluses are more able to do so. Those that want to be social are more able to do so. I want to say it's unfortunate, but really, it's not, that more people naturally want to be...
