    Thanks, I really appreciate that! It's crazy how you can scour the web and still not find such useful information like that. Looks like a very useful site for me.

    You probably didn't see, but in my latest reply in this thread I stated I'm moving next week. I just have that feeling where I need to get the hell out of here. I've been wanting to for a while, but school held me back. I switched banks due to the move, and I'm stuck here until my checks and...

    Thanks, I wasn't going to update this thread until another week or so because I've been busy getting ready to move to Phoenix and selling all of my belongings. I know in my OP I said I'd be moving in November, but I can't stand my current living situation any longer. I'll be leaving by Wednesday...

    Book on Poker?

    BOOKS 
    The one that stands out the most to me from what I've read is "Treat Your Poker Like A Business" by Dusty Schmidt Aside from that I believe the best ways to learn are to find someone better than you and convince him to let you watch him play, and have him teach you. Then switch it around and...

    The Follow-Through: 99% Of People Don't Make It There

    Yes the fitness analogies are awesome. If people could stick with an exercise and diet routine for even 3 months, they would see results. The results probably wouldn't be what they were expecting because fitness marketing has people believing they can look like J-Lo in 12 weeks, but if you can...

    The Follow-Through: 99% Of People Don't Make It There

    I think upbringing definitely plays a part. Imagine if you had parents putting the fastlane ideology in your head since you were 10 years old. You would have made it there a lot quicker. I believe attitudes and behaviors can be changed, but it is one of the hardest things in the world to do, and...

    If you can follow through, you are THE MAN or THE WOMAN! I was just going through a thread and I've noticed a trend that I knew was prevalent in the general population, but I'm very surprised at how common it is on this forum as well. I was just reading through a thread made by a very...

    Getting a marketing degree?

    MARKETING 
    ^^My school actually had an Entrepreneurship major. It was pretty cool because we got a lot of guest speakers who started their own companies and got to pick their brains. The course material was usually kind of lame, just making mock businesses in groups and no one really cared about the...

    I see what you're saying about his ranking getting better, but it isn't exactly helping him if he's losing money faster than his rank grows if he isn't seeing returns on that rank in a reasonable amount of time.

    Great idea I've always wanted to buy raw milk or grass-fed beef from a local farmer, but I never know where to start. Do I just go around asking farms 1 by 1 lol? I would use this. Also, I'm not sure I see the value of having the farmers ship the stuff. If there's a local farm near the person...

    My team is shutout 3-0, I slowly step to the plate, mind about to pop out of my head and home-run itself out of the stadium. The pitcher is a conglomeration of everyone who has ever doubted me or thought I wasn't good enough, glued together by my own self-doubt. It has scalding red eyes...

    Good stuff man, keep it going. The lion has always been a symbol of being courageous to me, and following through with a business definitely takes courage. I have this hanging in my room, right above my computer.

    I already have the badge for some reason, but just finished the book now. I got a little sidetracked with my reading after the book led me to the forums :D Life changing stuff, really. Can't even put into words how this book makes me feel, empowered isn't enough. Even if I'm feeling a bit down...

    I just went all-in today. Quit my job that was supposed to start in November. Dad is very disappointed, tells me I'm setting a bad example for my younger brother who is already iffy on college. Gave me a calm speech about how my decisions affect more people than myself. Makes me feel like crap...

    ^^Congrats to you that is awesome! I was just reading The Robert Collier Letters and found this quote in there. This quote has to be at least 80 years old. I really liked it and it reminded me of this thread. "The saving event in many a man's life is the blow that takes away the props that...
