    If you think willpower alone will help you quit, you're already F*cked! Listen to what @Fox said - grab Allen Carr's book and take the easy way out. I broke free from that "social smoker" bullshit just by reading it and rewiring my brain completely. Sure, you'll need a bit of backbone to push...

    I used to work for them in an innovation-related role for two years. They really let you take your ideas and run with them. It’s a shame they went bankrupt and got bought out by McLaren Applied, the same group behind the F1 sports cars.

    My new guilty pleasure from last month! I just love the way Mike presents things, blending humor and wisdom. I don’t agree with everything he says, but I do with most of it. Mike Israetel

    Why Do So Many Fall For Fascism?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I disagree with this perspective. In my experience, it's in large corporations' interest to push identity politics, as it keeps people competing against each other for positions they advertise on LinkedIn, and keeps them from fighting for the real problems in society. I feel that DEI initiatives...

    You can see the German film Die Welle. Actually this is a true story of Ron Jones, a history teacher at Cubberley High School in Palo Alto, California. Ron wanted to demonstrate to his students how the German populace could have accepted the actions of the Nazi regime during World War II. Over...

    I have been trying Gamma AI lately, and I am so impressed! While it's mainly designed for presentations like PowerPoint, I've found it's perfect for creating simple landing pages. If you're a small business owner looking to make a basic website or landing page without hiring a designer, you...

    How can you teach or encourage resilience?

    Seriously after 5 years at the forum you should not be asking such questions but here you go. ChatGPT man.. Dropbox: Drew Houston’s demo video was a Day 1 move. Before building the complex backend, he gauged interest by showing potential users the promise of the product. Zappos: Nick Swinmurn’s...

    Day 1 is when you pitch your product to people or just the promise of solving their problem. Simple as that. If they hand over money, you've got something that works. No money? Something's wrong. Don't waste time building stuff nobody wants to buy.

    That is dumb because that is what pre-orders and waiting lists are for. No point going to building masturbation phase unless it is a passion project that you really care about, and have no interest of monetization, yet. If you do it for yourself thats fine, no judgement there. But at least don't...

    Who the F*ck cares about ideas anymore? These are for losers. Who counts from the idea phase or ideas in general?

    Sorry, @MJ DeMarco . Please be kind in your response, but I truly don’t understand why it has to be this way. From my perspective, a business should serve a community need in exchange for money. So, why not have pre-orders from day one, backed by a validated waiting list with a sign-up fee or...

    I don't like the name of this business PT Pods. I would just call PF pods. So, Protein Farts Pods.

    IDEA 
    Why not tell them that you will build the bike according to their request, send them an offer, and include a service fee? Then, you can proceed by contacting different suppliers to get the bike ready for when they arrive and include maps. Someone with the means would be willing to pay for...

    You should read "The Million Dollar Weekend" by Noah Kagan. He actually gives a step-by-step guide on how to start a business. In general, I would almost never tell someone to read yet another book, but this one might work for you. At the very least, it will help you understand what the first...
