    A Divided Mind -- (how do you allocate your attention?)

    MINDSET 
    Haha, yeah it's me. This has been on my mind a lot the past few weeks, so I need to be decisive and move forward. I think that's a good way to look at it. That same perspective is what made me decide to leave my job and travel/freelance, and I'm so glad I did. It makes sense to look at this...

    Is INVESTING worth learning early on?

    INVESTING 
    Was thinking about this recently too. Interested in learning more about investing (even though I don't have much to invest now), so that I can get most of the learning out of the way now. Can anyone suggest a good book that covers all the bases for someone who is a complete noob?

    NOTABLE! MARKETING 
    Wow, some really great info in here. I have been doing cold emails for my mechanical design business for the past 4 or 5 months. I spent a lot of time writing out a basic script and also personalize each email slightly. I get about 25-30% of people clicking the link to my website, so I'm...
