    Easiest way to record a podcast with GOOD sound quality?

    CHAT 
    A good mic is half of the battle. The other half is editing your audio file with softwares(audacity or Adobe Audition). That being said you could use an iPhone 11 as a mic, edit the audio file(level, denoise, dynamics, vocal enhancement, etc.), and get some good-quality recordings. If you...

    Mastering B2B sales from zero (a detailed personal journal and a guide)

    EXECUTION 
    First small win 10 days in with B2B sales. I've been pitching 20-40 businesses daily for the past 10 days. Today I got my first $500 sales in under 30 minutes. I know it's nothing big, and yet it makes me feel excited... I'm only 10 days in and I'm starting to see changes in the way I talk...

    Mastering B2B sales from zero (a detailed personal journal and a guide)

    EXECUTION 
    Hey guys, haven't posted here in a while. I've been thinking of ways to create some value on the forum. So I might as well write about my current process in learning B2B sales. Preface: I've been working on a YouTube business for the past 10 months now. But the thing is it hasn't picked up...

    I understand how men are broken

    RANT 
    Time to dust yourself of what you've done(even if you're unhappy with the results), and focus on what you need to do now. If you focus too much on past mistakes, then you become resentful, miserable, and full of self-pity. I've been there and I was not happy or making any progress. You can't...

    What does it actually mean to change your mindset from a consumer to a producer?

    MINDSET 
    I always think of the spoon analogy from one of MJ's books. Can't remember which but it made a big impression on me. I found a picture on Google. Everyone is hungry but can't feed themselves because they each got a LOOONG spoon. To become satisfied, a person must use their own spoon to feed...

    I have problems with discipline and consistency.

    MINDSET 
    holy shit bro. 120 lbs? That's an insane drop. A Life-changing transformation even. You must've learned a crap ton about yourself and how your body works during the process. If you can do it for 120 lbs... I don't think there's anything you can't do

    Mental Distractions: Why can't I focus while reading?

    QUESTION 
    @Isaac Odongo I found Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence by Dr. Anna Lembke super useful. This book is a mix between hard science and plain English on how addictions/dopamines work. It is super easy to understand without any biology background. Then there's Power of...

    Mental Distractions: Why can't I focus while reading?

    QUESTION 
    Yes. You might ask but then how long will it take? The time it takes for you to see a noticeable amount of difference in your ability to focus will depend on how long you've been frying your mind and what type of things you've been frying it with. In general, the longer you've been desensitized...

    Mental Distractions: Why can't I focus while reading?

    QUESTION 
    Sorry, you gotta go through this. What are your screen time and consumption habits up until recently? I have a little cousin who's around the age of 10 that has the exact problem as you. Although the reasoning for him is the amount of stimulation he gets from his gaming devices. His parents...

    I have problems with discipline and consistency.

    MINDSET 
    Curious, how are other aspects of your life? Relationships, money, mental health, etc. Do you feel stuck in any other areas? I know a friend of mine who's a chronic foodie because he keeps running away from his problems. Whenever something uncomfortable would occur, he'd turn to food to numb...

    Success stories. Where are they?

    IDEA 
    Search and you shall find. MJ made this forum so you don't have to ask these straightforward questions. There's a "HIGH-value topic" button in the top nav section. If you want to get more details, click the search button top right, enter an EPIC contributor user name, then read from their...

    Who Wants A Year of The Insiders?

    So many good mentions... I think in transformation and I remember two threads WITH TRANSFORMATIONS vividly. @Isaac Odongo @Shono Shon went from a reddit mod who can barely type proper English to a full-on gentleman with one single thread. He took blows from the forum and came back a new...

    Analyzing My YouTube Journey So Far.

    IDEA 
    There's some really good feedback already. Some technical feedback: The music choice is good. I'd be mindful of how loud it is though. Loud music is generally used as a transition, to emphasize time speeding up(slowly increasing music volume as b-roll cuts get faster), or to emphasize what a...

    Analyzing My YouTube Journey So Far.

    IDEA 
    Here are a few videos that helped shaped my mindset greatly when it comes to content creation. I think they will definitely help you. This video or rather keynote shows the power of BIG NUMBERS. Something that stood out to me was when he talked about quality+ high quality> quality+low quantity...

    Analyzing My YouTube Journey So Far.

    IDEA 
    I hope you don't take this the wrong way. It's been a learning process for me too. But these are a few things I learn recently that might help you. If you had to be honest, would you watch your own videos? Is there something in your video that sends it home to the audience you want to reach...

    Would you buy a home, go travel abroad, OR do you do BOTH?!

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Hey, what's guys? This thread is just to satiate my curiosity and possibly those on the younger boats. People who still have traveling-abroad-blood running hot through them. (BUT we understand the power of getting in early in real estate) So to give you some context, I was reading the thread...

    What does "embrace the suck" mean?

    MINDSET 
    I'm down close to 15 lbs since starting my cut. I'm probably another 15-20 lbs from 8% BF. It's just been switching my mental dialogue from "Oh man, not this again"... the daily fasting, 1 huge meal a day, cardio, and loads of water... to "bring it on" whatever I need to do to look how I...

    Wow, just wow!

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Lazy entitled people have existed in every generation. You might not realize this because generations earlier, you didn't have social media groups and reddit pages to glorify laziness. I think it's the same shit different day type of thing. Some problems always perpetuate themselves under...

    The Age of Making Money is over?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    LOL! Your reaction is so funny I laughed hard. It's funny because he claims to be a "millionaire" for a lot of his old videos when he was recommended to my feed. I remember watching a few of this guy's videos a few years back for his dry humor and little about his financial advice. Then I...
