    Better pitch: "I build websites for independent grocery stores that convert sales at a 35% higher rate than industry average." - or - "We have more experience building websites for landscapers than anyone else" - or - "My deep knowledge in financial services means I build websites fully...

    As someone who ran a web design business 15 years ago, I can agree here. In 2005, I was basically shooting fish in a barrel. Now? Saturated. Much more difficult to start from zero, and profitability has plummeted as more competitors have entered the space. Finding a niche and differentiating...

    My procrastination habits make me miserable

    I love that post, one of the first things I read on the forum. One of the more creative, honest, and instructive posts I've seen here.

    My procrastination habits make me miserable

    @Aurelius You've got a deep habit loop happening here. The first step in beating this is to recognize what's going on. The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg Get this book. Read it. Work through the action steps. From what I can tell, this book is your answer.

    My 23yo kid now enjoys passive income (before I get to)

    T This is great. I think most of the dads here would love to have their kids prepared for something as big as this. Congratulations. Obviously your hard work paid off.

    I hear the same thing from several people I know who have MBAs. Most said something like "most of it wasn't useful, find someone in your industry that's doing well and ask them how to get started."

    It's a pleasure to meet the next generation of entrepreneurs. Launching a Membership group, any tips?

    I had a business for 8 years. Was a partner in 2 startups. It will be interesting to see the outcome of your research.

    Totally right. Agreed. Until it's your paycheck. Wage garnishment is a form of disciplinary action mostly. Not all the time, but mostly that's what it's used for. Now it may be used differently in my case, but psychologically it doesn't matter. It's perceived as a punitive action. Or at least...

    That's funny, because my financial advisor asked me about retirement, and I was like, "I'm not doing that. I want to be busy doing something I like that provides cash flow." He liked that. My psychological profile identifies me as heavily industrious, so I know my a$$ is going to stay busy...

    Dude, I think the 40s are great. You still have 10-20 years to hit your goals. A LOT can happen in that time with the right attitude, skills and commitment.

    Thank you. The TL is a nice ride dude! You got a nice deal, they will make it to 200k pretty easily with maintenance. And the build quality is great, much better than domestics of the same year.

    That's great to hear. I hope my kid hangs out with me after school, but you never know. Glad yours do. We all have choices right?
