    Make my day!

    EXECUTION 
    So I realized I was full of bullshit. All talk no action. Wantrepreneur. I spent more time in here than doing anything productive. I've made myself a promise to not ever write a book about success and success techniques until AFTER I look back at my life and say "I made it". This thread is dead...

    Make my day!

    EXECUTION 
    20/03/2016 Major plot twist. First big roadblock. My dad was helping me pay my college expenses. Some big disagreements and a heated argument later, and no more money from parents. I'm on my own now, back against the wall. I'm seriously considering dropping college - even though I like...

    How would you define "leverage"

    EXECUTION 
    I actually see all these different meanings converging at some level, and believe leverage can be defined relatively precisely. The word leverage, in physics, is associated to the distance of a force to the fulcrum. The bigger this distance, the more torque you produce. In basic terms, torque...

    EXECUTION 
    Quick update. 31/01/2016 It's been finals time over here for the past couple of weeks. Since starting to commit 100% to practicing, testing, tweaking and doing what I'm preaching, my grades exploded. Even though what I'm creating isn't only aimed at improving grades, it's very nice to see it's...

    Wow, the guy got me. I was so fooled by the initial post. MLM? Lesson learned. Thank you for opening my foggy eyes.

    How to REALLY become a millionaire (Video)

    HOT! 
    Agreed. Now, while rewatching the video, he indeed claims guaranteed success. For some reason I didn't didn't catch that initially. I don't like/buy that idea either. But he does give some valuable insights into the work ethic necessary for success. Agreed with Mark Cuban right there!

    Haters will hate

    So I saw this video a while back and suddenly remembered it. It sucks that people are so jealous of his success. They're throwing at him that he had it made from the start, implying rupert murdoch and aston kutcher are just going around flinging money at worthless ideas because the kid is the...

    How to REALLY become a millionaire (Video)

    HOT! 
    What he calls a formula is really a point of view. It's a way of thinking. The numbers he gives aren't end-all, they're an indication of how it can turn out when the work is put in. Obviously he doesn't mean to say that you're guaranteed to get $500.000 in 5 years. He's right there with his...

    I think I should learn how to code. What's the quickest way?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    There is a channel on youtube - "thenewboston" - that's where i first picked up on basic programming skills. I like video tutorials a lot. Still didn't check out the codecademy thing though, thanks @Omega. Will check it out.

    Fast lane brothers and sisters! Help me help my fellow classmates!

    EXECUTION 
    [rant mode, you've been warned] It really goes to show how most people's definition of freedom of opinion really is "freedom to agree with me". I mean, "I ended up in the office and sitting out the rest of the year"? Come on, seriously?! Those people are teaching generations after generations...

    The Forum's Thoughts on Veganism?

    HEALTH 
    My point of view is the following: I don't either eat meat or fish. It is perfectly possible to be healthy without them. Nowadays, most soy-based foods and whole breakfast cereals have major nutrients (mostly artificially added), and we're not even talking about beans, seeds algae the sort...

    How the hell do I focus while reading?

    EXECUTION 
    First, make sure the material actually matters to you. I get bored to death with topics that I dislike. Second, set goals for your endeavour. Why are you bothering? What will you get out of it? Make it personal. Don't read it because someone told you it was a nice book. Create questions that...

    10/01/2016 First-drafted another 4000 words, totaling around 6000. Not much but I feel the momentum starting to roll. Studied and took notes of another 6 books, and I'm brainstorming to improve existing concepts and create new ones. This time, the books are immediately related to the content...
