    Great read. I found it insightful how the personal trainer biz. was about to throw in the towel. Instead he simply changed the model of how he gets paid but still offers the same product then it started working much better for everyone. Just goes to show its not always just what you sell, but...

    The *New* Endangered Species... Your Job.

    HOT! 
    See #2 in my original post. Also "Mom & Pops" shops are alive and well. In fact small business still make up a large bulk of our GDP. Just because we read the big ones in the news, doesn't mean there's still millions of small businesses still churning it out in our economy. Our perception is...

    Maximizing your time

    The thing about being in the slowlane with a good salary and responsibilities -- it's a different mindset than being single, living in an apt. with no mortgage to maintain, and little responsibility. It's a different mindset. If I was single with no responsibility other than myself -- unless you...

    Maximizing your time

    I prefer the words habits. Goals are one thing, habits are another. If you have the right habits it's easier to meet your goals. Habits can work for or against you, and they take small steps and time to build up. Once you grow the right ones, your goals are much easier to achieve because your...

    Maximizing your time

    We are all given the same exact amount of time in the day. 24 hours. No more, no less, but if you can figure out how to get more done than anyone else in the day, congratulations you've just given yourself a huge advantage over every one else. Having a job means if I want to run a successful...

    Jason's How to Build Wealth & Golden Nuggets

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Building a business based on your passion can also ruin it. It may end up being more like work while doing it because of all the pitfalls that a business can bring to it. So you start with enjoying it and end up hating it. I think the best way to be able to bring what your passionate about...

    Jason's How to Build Wealth & Golden Nuggets

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    But telling people to start a business based on their passion IS what sells (many times). I can usually spot the bad apples fairly easily now after discovering TMF.

    Ah yes, I really need to do this. Disconnect for a while.

    Is this guy f*@%## serious?

    MINDSET 
    I have thousands of "friends" in my newsfeed and rarely engage many of them. I no longer sink much time into FB, just go there for a few minutes at a time now and again, so it's not really an issue as far as a time sink. Some people waste so much time there. I know what he's referring to. In...

    Is this guy f*@%## serious?

    MINDSET 
    Just found this gem in my newsfeed. We've now been reduced in society to not only an endless supply of victims, but none of us really have any choices in life. Everything we do is outside of our control. Criminals have to steal. Cheaters have to cheat. It's all outside of our control and that's...

    [RANT]: Raise the minimum wage! This is so unfair!

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    I think this is relevant to the topic at hand. Anyone, literally anyone that want's to escape minumum wage and make their way up to an 80k job can do it following these steps. It simply takes a small amount of self-discipline and sacrifice, and this is the slow lane without much risk...

    Easy way for teenagers to become millionaires!

    This is what ultimately made me turn away from much of the advice out there on the subject. Many authors, self-help "guru's" and get rich advice dispensers never used their own advice. I wanted someone that wrote a book on the foundations of what they actually used themselves, not by writing...

    Looking for advice for a slam dunk

    MINDSET 
    I could start sending out emails but I will get a much better response if I have actual product images and I'm sure many are going to ask for a sample, something tangible they can see & touch instead of just an email with some promises of what it will be like. It should be another week tops...

    Looking for advice for a slam dunk

    MINDSET 
    Good point on the small piece of work. I had someone start on something about a year ago when I thought of the idea, since it's over halfway completed I am having him finish it, but ultimately believe I'm going to have to ditch him. We'll see how it goes this time around he seems to be more...

    Acquiring franchise network

    You realize you can make 80k from 1 Subway which costs around 100k. Why on earth would anyone pay that much for this?

    Why Lazy People Never Get Rich

    MINDSET 
    In the comments section : They define growing a business as "throwing away your free time". In other words it's better to work a 9-5 for 40+ years to hopefully be able to retire with meager means than work your a$$ off for 5-10 years, retire early and live like a king for the rest of your...

    Can I just mention how awful this job market is?

    NOTABLE! 
    If it's a slow lane job you want that pays a good salary before your venture without school debt your on the wrong forum. However I will tell step by step how to. 1. Go on amazon and buy the comptia A+ study guide for $35. 2. Study your a$$ off. Do free online practice questions. 3. Pass the...

    Here's why you should never forget what the C stands for in NECST

    HOT! 
    I like the idea of mailers with a % off code and your website listed, then you could have some type of rewards plan for each purchase even if it's for a small amount to hook them in. You'd likely have to build your product base from power supplies to other electronics that are more repeatable...

    Sounds like there's a need for a marketplace that gets lots of traffic that businesses can use with one minor change ; your store isn't removed until a more thorough review.
