    Failing silently, before even marketing - impossible products/bad ideas

    CHAT QUESTION 
    Well, that's some Tony Stark stuff. Did you actually learn thermodynamics during those attempts? Or build actual CNC assembly line? That's HUGE. That's like getting a masters degree. I have 1 idea that would certainly need me to wait until I can pay PhDs to work with me. For some stuff you...

    Failing silently, before even marketing - impossible products/bad ideas

    CHAT QUESTION 
    I was playing with a product idea for, like, half a year. I thought a lot about it, drew it in CAD, and experimented. I kept thinking, "Meh... this is going to be a trouble." It turns out it might even be physically impossible, needing an inherently flawed mechanism, or it would need to be...

    The war against your self esteem

    NOTABLE! HOT! MINDSET 
    I second-guessed myself from reacting to this (self-esteem), and then I deleted my well-thought-out response accidentally... At least I will make it shorter this time. This hits very hard; it is exactly what I wanted to say and what I needed to hear. I am struggling with self-esteem as well...

    Self-esteem? Warrior mindset? How to find pleasure in work, instead of hyperreality.

    BOOKS MINDSET RANT 
    Thank you. You think I don't have to continue reading those books? I did have all games deleted, but I don't know what gets to me to return "briefly". Hence, I read the books. Maybe they are not needed, since I now know it will get better and life will be fun, not just frustrating, when I get...

    Am I complicating a simple thing? Feel free to bust my chops or tell me I am normal for struggling with this. How is it that I could just play a video game, fully obsessed and dedicated, for 6 days all day long, stopping barely even to eat? I decided I am resting and playing Oxygen Not...

    It's sheer power. If I tell them about MJ Demarco and his books, they will make a productocracy business in a snap. They dont know about these business principles and are on their amazing trajectory in life that is perhaps as compelling as fastlane. I don't even want to interfere with that by...

    You are definitely right. I am familiar with the Pareto principle. I have read at least 1 book about what tim ferris is saying here and 2 other books that touched on this (Time Warrior, The War of Art, and Turning Pro). I am not trying to trade my time for money or go against the principles...

    That's mazing! I wish my parents were thinking like this instead of ranting about retirement age and "todays bad age". I want to show them they can retire sooner and without depending on the goverment.
