    Has Moving to a Warm and Sunny Climate Made You Happier?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    I understand, I've been there before. And if it wasn't for my excessive sweating issue, I'd probably be in the same boat. The sun is extremely important, and I've always said it's like a battery, charging up our souls for higher achievement. If SAD affects you to this point, it's definitely...

    My Idea is a Reality - Now What...? SEEKING ADVICE

    MARKETING 
    I agree here. It seems that you're trying to replicate tier 1 companies with your headline. A clever tagine with no subheading works for the big boys like Coca-Cola, Shopify and the like. Headline and subheading should summarise your whole USP within 5 seconds, whilst garnering the attention...

    "Drop the Fastlane, Do reselling"

    IDEA 
    Bill runs a semi-successful dropshipping business. However, it inevitably fails. In spite of this, Bill learned an arsenal of skills to take into his next venture. As he's young and has a good margin of safety, he's not bankrupt and is ready for the next big thing. On the contrary, Tim read...

    Has Moving to a Warm and Sunny Climate Made You Happier?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    I 100% resonate with your pessimism. In contrary to my last post here, I've came to actually be irritated by the sun/warm weather. I've stated endlessly that I CANNOT stand grey clouds and rain. And while that's true, winter is actually a welcome addition to my lifestyle. At least winter...

    Should I buy the car?

    IDEA 
    Why are parents so hellbent on getting in the way of a miracle? This is such ridiculous logic. The whole point of college is literally to make more money. You're doing that without taking on debt... yet. Needless to say, the car is a bad financial move. Now that you're making money, you...

    How To Know If Your Reading Is Action Faking... Even If You're A Clueless 20-Something

    MINDSET 
    Leaders are readers. I've been watching a Netflix documentary about Bill Gates, called "Inside the Mind of Bill". He does this thing once a month or so called "Think Week". In Think Week, he literally locks himself inside a cabin for a week and brings about 15 books with him, which he...

    Should I start and launch my app or start a SaaS with my brother?

    IDEA 
    This is being done, and you really need to skew value to stand out from your competitors. Moreover, what's the cost of this? App development isn’t cheap. More importantly: what's your proposed revenue model? As for the second idea, I don't know enough about robotics to comment any further...

    Alex Hormozi Breaks the Internet with His Book Launch

    CHAT 
    I've seen some of his stuff - his tips on landing pages are great, and his books are likely full of golden nuggets. If he just took that ridiculous (and useless) plaster off his nose, I might watch more of his stuff. He seems like another person for the Huberman suck-ups to worship. Huberman...

    Another landscaping venture? Let's go.

    MARKETING 
    Maybe a bit off-topic, but do you plan on using Gemini for copywriting long term? Copywriting takes up a lot of my time, but I'm just weird like that—I don't like to use AI for it lol. I don't wanna be that guy who uses a horse instead of a car, but I also want to hone my skills. Good thread...

    Does anyone else feel hopeless seeing the state of the world? How to deal with it?

    OFF-TOPIC QUESTION 
    Social media is full of this drivel lately: Time is passing so fast. Things just aren't the same since covid If anybody could have a reason to whine, it's me. My life is almost unbelievable, and the stuff I could tell you is like something out of a movie. This is all just fuel for my fire...

    It's cool. I'm no stranger to honest criticism, but your input seemed a bit condescending given the context. Not everything needs to be viewed critically and analytically; sometimes it's better to miss the trees for the forest. - TWG

    The Risky, Messy and Unstoppable Power of Saying 'Yes'

    NEWS 
    While it's possible this is just AI junk, people also adapt to the stimulus around them. For example, when I read a lot of old books written around the 1920's, my grammar started to reflect that. I was using more "old school" words. At the same time, frequent use of AI tools is likely altering...

    I totally get the feeling. Then again, even if you fail—you're accumulating a ton of knowledge that can be directed toward future pursuits. I respect the opinion of people who have failed numerous times before they succeeded, as they have that "dog" in them. This is a reason why I love the...
