    Making Your Bed

    MINDSET RANT 
    I think you missed the point of the speech, but either way, I totally disagree with you, making your bed is one of those small things that can set you off on the right foot in the morning. Just like eating breakfast or drinking a cup of coffee in the morning. There are so many things that can...

    The Epitome of Entitlement

    I think there is a lot of people who unjustly bash Youtube Vloggers. Now there are A LOT of trash vloggers out there who I can't stand, but there are also a handful of really good ones I watch on a pretty regular basis. But, you can always separate the sharp/entrepreneurial minded youtube stars...

    Keto

    HEALTH 
    I tried it, but I race triathlons and am currently in the middle of Ironman training so the diet and my training schedule didn't mesh well (at least for me). I've heard and read a lot of really great things about it though, between mental clarity and potentially cancer fighting effects- I think...

    Franchising is a waste of time!!

    INTRO 
    I am a franchisee- I think franchising is a great business to start with but I think it is very very hard to make a fortune from the business. I own a fast food franchise, and I was very very fortunate with my experience because I opened my business at 22 years old in my hometown, and because...

    ebook: "The Pessimist's Guide To Making Their First Million"

    Have you actually made your first million? If not, than what makes you a credible enough source to write this book? And why should people listen to you? Not trying to be negative, but I think these are questions that people will ask.

    not trying to be negative at all just giving constructive advice- 1) your account handle isn't very good. When I read this thread I typed it into Instagram and initially wrote "@wealthandpower" and it took me to a different account, I had to take a double take at this thread to realize it said...

    Shark Tank Investments

    INVESTING 
    I woman I know was on shark tank as was a member of this forum I believe?- supposedly the stuff that happens on the show is such a small portion of what really goes on. The Shark that invests- they really are interested in investing but there is a lot of research, agreements..etc that go on...

    Business Loan

    PEOPLE 
    You will never get a loan for this idea. Nor do I think you should try to seek one- there are so many better ways to go about doing this rather than get a loan.

    Ask me anything about eCommerce (Ongoing)

    GOLD! 
    I apologize if this question has already been asked, but I don't believe it has- How do you find a new product/Niche? Is it from searching through amazon and just finding products that you can improve? Are they products that you use in your day-to-day life that you know you have issues with and...

    How did you discipline yourself?

    MINDSET 
    I am a huge list maker- I make lists of everything- things I need to do, goals, reminders, to-do lists...etc. and I am almost compulsive with completing those lists, I very rarely go to sleep with things left undone on my to-do list. This has helped me. But also repetition, forming habits..etc.

    Hey Biophase, amazing thread. my question is, How much thought do you typically put into packaging for your products? I just ordered a test order of a product I am wanting to sell, and it's a cheap product, and I think the thing that can set my product apart from the competition is the...

    My mom is an alcoholic mess with severe depression- in high school I was her safety net.

    Pooper Scooper Service

    I have two bigs dogs, and I pick up their poop now because I can't justify paying anyone to do it for me. But if I had the extra money to justify this- hell yeah I'd pay someone to pick it up. One thought is lawn mowing companies a lot of time will do this on top of mowing services- just a...

    Does Anyone Do Direct Mail Marketing?

    MARKETING 
    That is not what I am talking about. BUT if a direct mail flyer/offer is never used than how can you track it? There are a lot of things that can happen with a direct mail flyer: A) it can be thrown away without being looked at once B) it can be reviewed- the customer isn't interested so...

    Does Anyone Do Direct Mail Marketing?

    MARKETING 
    I have for the franchise I own- and it has never worked in my experience. Facebook/Social media are much more effective in my opinion- and you can really see how your adds are performing, while with Direct Mail you don't know if they even looked at your material - they could have just tossed it...
