    This is probably the most condensed analogy version of that truth that I've come across. Kudos and Karma.

    Discipline - The Reason You Might Fail

    MINDSET FAILURE 
    Good read and counter thought - thank you for the share! It's worth adding - this is a ton of fun too :) As with all things, the truth is probably somewhere in the middle (requires discipline and motivation).

    Discipline - The Reason You Might Fail

    MINDSET FAILURE 
    Being a full-time entrepreneur - at least starting out as I am - is at once one of the most glorious and most challenging things I've ever experienced. Hopefully, this will get you reflecting/thinking/considering your own climb. What's Glorious About It? Not needing to wake up to make a...

    INTRO 
    Have your cake and eat it too! I also did CS. It was an awesome career choice because you can make 6-figures right out of the gate and develop your coding chops in a way school never comes close to. I'm leaving my company here in a couple months for a year minimum of biz pursuit (assuming no...

    You'll do just fine. Keeping that one. Almost all patents are like that. Rarely are patents genuinely innovative. A provisional patent is still not a terrible idea (cheaper, faster, and will dissuade enough copy cats to get out of the way). Seems like that applies to any good business...

    EXECUTION 
    By February 2019, I will have quit my day job and have no fewer than (redacted: 100, too low) 500 closed sales (new clients, recurring revenue) and have generated enough value to pay for an extra year of fastlane pursuit without need for a job.

    New aspiring entrepreneur here

    INTRO 
    Welcome @Rabcats! There's a lot of good stuff here... Advice, perspectives, sometimes heated differing opinions (in a good way), and loads of material. Definitely pick up both books and read them if you haven't yet. That's key. As far as your aspirations go, keep going.

    Love this thread. A couple that come to mind... "You may be right or you may be wrong - you may not be uncertain." - An old Martial Arts Sensei "You want to be somewhere between sane and absolutely crazy." - An old English Professor "Being realistic is the most commonly traveled road to...

    I have a sense, we'll have trouble coming to common ground here. That's alright, I mean what I say with respect. So I'll go with 'I respectfully disagree'. I'll reply here and probably leave it at that. Need to focus on work/business. If you'd like to continue discussing after this, I'm...

    It's a complicated thought - I appreciate the feedback. Let me think for a moment... - Capitalism requires a stable society. - A large population of poor/unhappy people eventually de-stabilize society. - The average person will accept lower than livable wages - This will cause the average...

    The logic itself is nearly flawless. But it is based under the assumption that all contributing members have an internal locus of control. That the population is homogeneous in their sense of self. That everyone in this economy would be more like you or me (where a lack minimum wage laws/unions...

    I'm not saying the world is worse off. Across the board things are wayyyy better than they'e ever been. There's a great ted talk on that actually. :) As for the second point, why would producers necessarily need to raise their prices? I'd argue that this is a common straw man argument in the...

    Disastrous in implementation perhaps. But I'd argue a societal necessity. Yes, I'll humor you on it (read my above post). Happy to trade and compare thoughts on it. *rubs eyes* this is really a classic case of the right hand not knowing itself from the left. I've been poor. You can't just...
