    No I don't, I should start enjoying it more. Everyone says this, and I believe it,I just have to figure out how to burn this to my brain lol. At first I was confused, but I think I get it. Right now I am being weak and letting the past get to me. Time to grow up and make the most of the...

    Pain of regrets and limiting beliefs

    MINDSET 
    I'm 25 years old, and financially speaking I am finally ahead of peers my age. Still nowhere where I want to be. It's been an unhealthy, intensely lonely road, mostly my fault. I learned how to socialize a lot later in life but I was also immature for the most part. I don't regret cutting off...

    What I'd do if I was 18

    MINDSET 
    I'd Take a piece of advice that I wish was given to me back then. Stop trying to create some idea with no industry experience. Get a sales job and start engaging in the markets. Start generating cash flow. Start living in reality. Start reading more gold threads on TMF instead of trying to give...

    Btw @Ubermensch Since I'm dealing with this non compete, either if it's in my contract or not or if it might be in future contracts I make with other suppliers of other products.... What is my negotiation strength? Pipeline? Relationship trust? Skills/abilities?

    How do you tell if an idea is a good idea before investing time and money?

    IDEA 
    most actionable idea validating method i personally know can be found in "running lean" by ash maurya, the concept is highlighted in the revolutionary "lean startup" https://leanstack.com/how-i-built-my-minimum-viable-product/ @Digamma what do you think?

    What I took away is that money in sales is in b2b deals. What can you provide companies within the construction industry? Energy efficiency products? High tech smart materials? Etc Then you get the agreement with the supplier of that product, and you start looking for places where a shit ton...

    view sales as a performance sport. If you put in the time working, evaluating, adjusting, learning, etc, you can only get better. There's guys in the basketball courts that complain about not having a good jumper or dribbles but they never go into the gym and do drills. And even if they did do...

    been doing my research on it and at first it just sounded too good to be true. anyone who decides to utilize PACE to upgrade their property to energy efficiency only benefits. talk about making money and saving the F*cking planet + helping people out massively lol

    IMO the answer could be in the grey area, but I think you interpreted what Uber said wrong. Let me give you an example: The athlete Kobe Bryant dedicated his entire life to basketball, sacrificing his free time, and considerable amounts of time from his family to perfect his craft of...

    Im down for the mastermind group. I have a lot of intricate questions I want to ask, and for some reason, I feel like it's better that I dont ask my suppliers to keep credibility. Bolded part is how i feel about it as well. this whole thing changed my perspective on fastlane completely
