    Your Step's Too Short - A Leadership Story

    YES, AND... you can't rise about the self image you set for yourself. Trying to ignore the influence of your environment (the people who speak to you, the city you're in, the pop culture you're exposed to) is like putting your hands over your ears while a train is blasting its horn right in...

    [PART THREE] 14. Selling the car Selling the car is as simple of (1) Cleaning the car (2) taking pictures, (3) posting on Facebook for the KBB private party value/ market price, (4) setting up a meeting, and (5) exchanging the title and keys for money. There's not a real reason to explain...

    I am struggling with action faking and destructions.

    While you are responsible for yourself and your actions, realize that this struggle for your own attention isn’t just you vs you. It’s you vs. companies that hire 1000s of genious employees with the explicit goal of keeping you on the platform. You cannot win by moderation, in my opinion...

    Very true. I find that talking about my goals with people who aren't on board deflates my passion to continue. Probably because when I work in silence I'm working from an internal place. Working like this is exciting. It's like a secret that only I know. But when I tell people what I'm up to...

    I'm 21 about to turn 22. I'm not that young, at least not young enough to not take responsibility for my life It's so interesting how, based on my age you guys come to two different conclusions. Of course, I'm inclined to @Oilman's answer but I'm wondering what you think, @MitchC? Do you see...

    Event oriented. That was my biggest mistake last year. I've shifted my mindset through my actions this previous year and now it's time to take the journey again as a wiser man. https://www.ruminate.io/

    Hmm... good point I didn't consider this. I agree with what you're saying, getting a CS job would be the most optimal way to learn how a SaaS business works from the inside-out The network effect you mention is especially powerful I can't believe I didn't think of that Tomorrow I will reweigh...

    Yeah I took a step back and realized that I already know what I want to do and taking action would bring me closer to who I want to become, not whining like a little bitch. Instead of complaining I thought "How can I add value to someone's day TODAY" and wrote this post That's a good point...

    Extremely valuable post and an extremely nice summary of the development cycle. Thank you for this! What advice would you give to someone learning to program their own app? Do you find that programming on your own is a waste of time even if it would be your first SaaS?

    I am. But at least college would be a safety net for me. I get your point. What I mean is that it would be a means to live more comfortably Taking the risk, moving out, building and failing and building and failing would get me to where I want to be faster.

    Yes, I read his book on making money thanks to @MJ DeMarco's recommendation. He's a beast, never heard of people making money in the magazine business before him. To your point: This is a good point but how is this any better than getting industry knowledge in any other way? If I had spot a...
