    After the age of 18, you are an adult with a clean slate. You have family, but you are not responsible for anyone but yourself. If you choose to have a family, that is your responsibility. It is not your responsibility to take care of your mother or siblings. You are also enabling detrimental...

    Lost my job. Give it to me straight how F*cked am i?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I suppose it depends on your job. I'm not going to make more money freelancing compared to my current job. If I want to work less hours, I can work a different schedule. That being said, most people may do better freelancing... if they can hack it. You make it so hard to root for you. I don't...

    HOT! MINDSET 
    4 months and you're worried now? I took 3 months off to work on my own business. When I started running low, looked for a job and found one and started working in 2 weeks. This was 6 months ago. Unless you believe you are unemployable, not sure what you are stressing about. Now if you're...

    Designing a product

    IDEA 
    After you have done your due diligence, making sure your improvement has not been done before, you should begin prototyping. It doesn't matter how crappy the prototype is, just get a prototype. There are a few types of beneficial prototypes. The early prototype might focus on either...

    Farming my way into the fastlane

    GOLD! IDEA EXECUTION 
    For now, farming for yourself makes sense. At some point, you want to focus on what will make you the most return on your time. So that will mean stepping away from farming and focus on more scalable tasks. If you are paying higher prices to the farmers for higher quality, then that is no...

    Choose an industry/skillset and stick with it

    ASSERTION 
    Yea, the Dunning-Kruger Effect. I've noticed this with Physical Therapy. When I got out of PT and was working for like 6 months, I felt quite confident. Then the more I practiced, I felt like a fraud. You start to realize, at least in my profession, that people come to you because, even if you...

    Choose an industry/skillset and stick with it

    ASSERTION 
    This is exactly what happened to me. I had gone to college for physical therapy for 7 years but I had been trying to enter into every other industry EXCEPT Physical Therapy. Once I decided to stick with what I know(PT) I started to better identify real issues in the market that I had experience...

    ASSERTION 
    Transferable skills are great. By definition they can be brought with your in many different businesses. In any industry, as a business owner you will be forced to wear many hats at different times of your businesses journey. During that time, you will learn many different skill sets. A lot of...
