    Amazing post!! Your advice is spot on. I have one question, what exactly do you mean by "offering value to people"? I know it has something to do with how you make the other person feel when they're around you. But I never really understood this whole idea of "having value in your life". Do you...

    Man, this evoked some serious anxiety. Thank you for posting this. I want to do so much in my life! I'm so scared of losing another 8 years being stuck!! This thought haunts me everyday, don't think otherwise. It's the biggest reason for my stress. I want to start living NOW.. But what do I...

    Thank you! It's awesome that you took one strategy, and built everything off that. 1. I have tried a lot of strategies - I did a lot of cold calling, ran ads on my country's Craigslist, sent cold emails, went door to door... with no significant results. Then Fox recommended a great strategy...

    Thank you! 1) I do not charge per hour. I do web design and other marketing servies, and charge a flat fee (between $1K and 2K per project). 2) This is very true. I will definitely have to get a job, I'm already researching sales jobs in my area. 3) I don't think I have depression - most of the...

    Thank you, this makes a lot of sense. It hurts to give up the Big money dream (especially after this many years of trying to hit it big) but I guess it has to be done. However, is freealncing on Upwork or getting a job really the "simple" way to pick up the momentum and bring in some money? I...

    What makes you think that you deserve to have the awesome people in your life? Please correnct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that merely ignoring the problem? If some people tell you that you suck, you can cut them off and find the ones that support you. But what if the "evil" person is right...

    8 years ago, I decided to give entrepreneurship my everything. And it worked out: 3 years ago I finally chose one business model (web design), and made around 15K total from that. However, it's really not that much after all, not nearly as much for the sacrifices that I made: For the past 8...

    Constantly stressed out

    HEALTH 
    Thank you for the replies everyone! I don't necessarily have so much work that I don't have time to do the other things. I would love to have a lot of work! I spend my time figuring out how to get more clients. It's just that I would feel terrible doing something that doesn't move me forward...

    Constantly stressed out

    HEALTH 
    Since starting my journey 8 years ago, I have never had a time where I wouldn't be incredibly stressed out. I just can't stop thinking about anything else than my business (web design, coding). Even though I have had a few solid successes, I still have to think about how to get new clients, how...

    Thank you for the kind replies everyone. It's been a while, but believe me when I say I've been thinking about this issue the whole time. Honestly, I don't think I'll ever stop. I'll always be thinking about new projects and ideas. I want to be the 60 years old millionaire looking for an idea...

    I got rejected everywhere I went

    MINDSET 
    I started with entrepreneurship because of rejection. And it was the best motivator! But I just can't do it anymore. Let me explain. Ever since I was in kindergarden, I was always the kid that everyone was mocking and making fun of. In school, every time I had a friend, he then used something...

    @JordanK Thanks man! Looking forward to sharing my journey here. @Fox Thanks. The next step is to scale the web design business to support me financially while I discover more needs for the software to solve. I have no idea how to do any of this :smile: but I have a plan (below) Also thank you...

    How I made $5K in a week, and my present challenges

    EXECUTION 
    Hello everyone, so it has been around 7 years since I discovered this forum, and a lot has changed since then. There has been a lot of ups and downs, and a few times I really wanted to quit. Last year I closed my first $5K deal, which was a big milestone for me. So I decided to let you guys...

    Am I scamming my clients?

    Two years ago I read Fox's thread about web design, and decided to stick to that model. I got my first 5 clients in the first month via Facebook groups, but the money wasn't great. In 2019 I found my niche, and during one client meeting, I discovered a need in that niche that could be solved...

    Thank you, that's an awesome tip. Great analogy with the posture. This is what I was looking for, as it makes you do the most important things without unnecessary emotional motivation. Applied it yesterday and got more work done than in the whole past week.

    You're right. I've never been an employee. The thing is, I'm not doing this to escape being an employee, but simply because I know there is a better way. My goals could never be achieved via an ordinary job, so I found a different way, and I'm 100% sure it is the right one. The problem is...

    Thank you, it did actually work. I think I experienced how it feels like to want it bad enough. However, it was very similar to watching a motivational video on YouTube. The emotion it created was intensive but also very fleeting. It lasted about 2 hours. For example, I have a problem with...

    No connection to the guy, I found his blog via Bold and Determined. (another great blog) I know that GLL generally has a bad reputation, but some of the advice he gives is great. The advice that resonated with me is "Don't change anything." There have been moments in the past when I just...
