    60 Days of 60 Minutes of Meditation - Let's Not Do Anything Together

    GOLD! HOT! MINDSET 
    Day 2 I didn't sleep enough, and that made the first 15-20 minutes unfocused. I started listening to my room as a cue to re-center, and found this to be helpful. Yesterday, I made sure to look at my timer running for 3 seconds prior to starting the meditation -so that I can have a reassuring...

    60 Days of 60 Minutes of Meditation - Let's Not Do Anything Together

    GOLD! HOT! MINDSET 
    This challenge found me at a perfect time. I started this morning. Day 1 I've never done an hour of meditation prior to this, but Naval's assertion that "meditation is easy, it's just sitting" really stuck with me this time. I've heard it before but it never convinced me, until today. The...

    Does being good at your job have anything to do with being good at entrepreneurship?

    Don't let people put shit in your head. You will act on the belief you instill. There is no ultimate truth with stuff like this. So ask yourself which belief serves you best - and act on that.

    Anyone else LOVE working Friday and Saturday nights?

    "Friday" and "Saturday" are just words.

    Grant Cardone, Alex Becker, Gary Vaynerchuck

    HOT! 
    Gary does have/had other businesses so I think he's legit. Grant I don't know about. Alex I don't know about. The best rule of thumb for not getting conned is: Don't learn business from anyone whose primary income source always was, (and is) coaching.

    AndyBlack's advice on helping people vs conversion rate

    MARKETING 
    If you wanna continue thinking of people as people, then talk to them. Talk to your "conversions." Hit them up with an email. A simple "hey thanks for buying, glad to have you. I'd love to have a chat about what you're doing/why you bought this thing etc." or something. Get on skype or chat...

    Starting a Copywriting Freelance Business. How well do I sell myself?

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE 
    Stop listening to everyone else and do something for at least 8-12 months diligently. More if it's a "real"/Fastlane business. If advice on the forum is counterproductive - stop reading it. You will achieve way more F*cking up on your own terms than meandering on the wisdom of others. It...

    The worst book I ever read was..

    HOT! 
    Was tempted to check out the 10x rule, but then I saw Grant's AMA on the r/sales reddit. He ignored all the questions that required specific knowledge to answer. He only responded to general questions with "work harder and write your goals" type of answers. So I pigeonholed him as a guru with...

    Any Jordan Peterson fans out there?

    HOT! 
    This was something I noticed too. I don't share your degree of dislike for Peterson, but I find that he's a depressant in large doses. Mainly because I don't agree with the idea that "life is suffering." (It's a part of life, but it's not life itself. I'm not suffering right now. I'm having a...

    is selling on Amazon FBA fastlane?

    MINDSET 
    No. "Fastlane" is not arbitrary. There are 5 clear criteria (CENTS/CENTS) that define it. Read the book again.

    Any Jordan Peterson fans out there?

    HOT! 
    I like him on what I like him on. But I certainly don't agree with him on everything. He's a net positive in society, as a counterbalance to [politics I will omit on this forum] But he's also a Deepak Chopra type who bends terms to fit his concepts.

    STORY WRITERS: Do You Manipulate Your Mood To Write?

    Yesterday I was writing a passage where I wanted to convey a lot of fear, anxiety and adrenaline. I couldn't write anything convincing when I was in my default state, but after I drank some coffee, put on some ominous music and dimmed the lights - it started coming out. Do you do anything to...

    Upwork: Read a book, write a 500 word review. Sure thing, easy! Whoa whoa whoa not so fast...

    @Dark Water Hahahaha, there's your first mistake. My (unsolicited) advice to you is don't let this make you bitter. It's common to start negative self-talk when you're doing a shitty job like this. The problem is that when you're angry, your thinking becomes hyperbolic. So: "This is a...
