    Is a full-time commission sales job slow lane or fast lane?

    I left a place when I realized that. I remember the day when I had the epiphany: "Wait, so if I don't sell, I don't get paid. Just like running my own business! What's the difference, except that I don't have a terrible manager with his thumb on me. I can work when I want, and I get to build an...

    Is a full-time commission sales job slow lane or fast lane?

    Not Fastlane if: • violates CENTS framework • you are compelled to show up and put in your 40 • you are not building an asset that you can sell HOWEVER: • one of the most entrepreneurial positions in a company • invaluable experience in sales - sales is the lifeblood of a company • you DO own...

    roasted! I would say that reading a book that says, "the way you've been living is scripted, and it sucks, and you can do better" challenges a lot of people to look deeper at their life choices, and that makes them uncomfortable. Instead of looking inward, or investigating MJ's premise, it is...

    @Ing People really start to read into your intentions and your situation when you are reading self-development books. Here is a great quote I read the other day from Jordan Peterson: “You know, academic and intellectual types, they find it entertaining to be supercilious about self-help books...

    Attention website owners!Here is why you should never use Bluehost and Hostgator (and 78 other web hosting services) for hosting your website!

    Completely awful. I had to explain to a client that their web speed issue was due to the fact that GoDaddy had about 7,000 other sites on the same server, I checked. He then called them and got promptly upsold their next level package where it was apparently less crowded. He took it. Dumb move.

    I don't know why it's inflammatory. @MJ DeMarco I can tell you that when I read it I literally felt the energy coming off of your writing. It was black and white, energetic, in-your-face, and unapologetically truthful and blunt. I've heard you on podcasts talking about that title, and I...

    I asked him why he covered the book in a Trader Joe's paper bag. He said, "Dude the title of the book was so inflammatory to my wife and friends that I had to cover it in order to read it without getting involved in a controversy." I like it. I'm keeping the cover.

    Atlas Shrugged Week 1: Ch 1-2

    HOT! 
    Great first chapter. Very descriptive. She sets the scene well. I have to say that she really wields a hammer here. There is no confusion as to how you should feel about the characters. Eddie is naive. Dagny is honest, direct, assertive, independent and immensely useful to a company that...

    In a fit of rage, Walt breaks through the door of Jacob Nighthorse's office. "Walt, what the hell are you doing? You can't just barge in here and—" "Game's over Nighthorse, I have evidence of you talking to Ridges the night of Branch's shooting. You arranged it. You tried to kill my deputy to...

    Absolutely. I know sales guys that are amazing on their feet and are really, really great at it. I don't see this with GC. But he's got money in the bank, so he's done something very right, and he's fought hard for it. But he didn't show me anything as far as him being a pro, or even an astute...

    Trying to get my website to NOT feel like a scam - help?

    I'd say the copywriting should reflect your mission and your positioning a little more. What is your differentiator? How are you different than all of the other loan services out there? The value proposition? People buy into a story. What's yours? People might be interested in knowing how the...

    Welcome, I'm glad you're here. From reading your intro, this is my reaction: 1. You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with (I got that from Jim Rohn). People are social animals, and they feel better when they are a part of something larger. You're here now AND you posted...

    Hey welcome to the forum. I'm glad you're here. I'm pretty new too. I love your story, and from what I can tell from my experience, taking risks can lead to huge growth. The hopelessness is real, but I also found out that it is exacerbated by alcohol abuse and partying. It affected me...

    Ok, you're on. Like you, I am not a fan, have never read her, have no idea what the book is about. I'm going to be cheap and get it from the library until I determine whether it is worth the purchase price.

    Thank you Jessie, appreciate that. Yes I'm familiar with Cherrico pottery, he's got a very cool way of adding his personality into the pieces. It's the self-expression, the style, and personality that people buy into. I'm getting to the stage where I can start doing that. Thanks for the reply!
