    Is Anyone Else Intermittent Fasting?

    NOTABLE! 
    I have been IF for a few months 16:8 style so you fast 16 hours and eat like 3 meals or 2 in other 8 hours, or maybe 15:9 some days due to time limitations. I think everyone should try it for 3 months and make his own thoughts about it based on how his body adjusts and depending on his...

Sometimes I say so which day would work for you best and go from there but mostly they are just moaning and gives the impression they don't really wanna think about it which is natural so my boss said it's best to just...

    What do you think of Chinese suppliers?

    Yeah I get it and will try to implement it in drop shipping like better customer service, better FAQ, better descriptions and instructions of use etc. I think this is fulfilling the customers needs. I just don't see the point of dropping the whole idea of drop shipping because it's money chasing...

    What do you think of Chinese suppliers?

    OK I don't think this is true in my country but maybe it is so I won't argue but the point is I need the money to be online because I want to move to SE Asia(Cambodia/Vietnam/Thailand)-obviously because you can live there with 1k/month. It's because I need to move out of this house and out of...

    How and where to find ideas? empty mind from years (details inside)

    IDEA 
    Hey, I really think that James Altucher's philosophy on how to generate ideas might help you. The “idea muscle” atrophies within days if you don’t use it. Just like walking. If you don’t use your legs for a week, they atrophy. You need to exercise the idea muscle. It takes about 3-6 months to...
