    I found him in like 30 seconds, although I didn't use Google for it. He now lives in Boca Raton, and he graduated from University of Colorado. And from my own medical training, I agree with 95% of what he says. I'm a little skeptical about it being viable for up to 7 days on a surface, but I...

    2020 Fastlane Summit, Confirmed Speakers

    MEETUPS 
    My only request (If you choose me) is to have me speak after Kyle. I wouldn't have gotten the results I have without his help on the thinking big mindset. So I think it would be beneficial to have folks learn from him first, then see what it looks like in action.

    Kill Bigger Incubator

    MARKETPLACE 
    I am an "incubated" in the physical product space, currently online only. Here are my thoughts on the program so far. 1. He tells you what you already know, but are too stubborn to listen to yourself. On several occasions, @Kak has made an observation and caused my brain to yell "I told you...

    Can't Hurt Me: by David Goggins, Review and Discussion

    HOT! 
    My Rating: 2 stars out of 5 stars :star::star::xx::xx::xx: Format: Kindle My thoughts/review: Not the best book I've ever read, but also not the worst. I didn't care much for his "voice". It read like he was trying too hard to sound authentic and came off a little forced. He mentioned he went...

    HOT! 
    I started working with Chris last week, so I'm still trying to figure out the best time for me to do my weekly planning, follow-ups, and how to best keep my action item list on the forefront of my day to day. I'm primarily doing this to help build the positive habits I need to continue to grow...

    Big Opportunities in Alternatives to Big-Tech

    HOT! 
    So far there's been a lot of complaining about how the status quo is unfair, and very little actual analysis on if this is a viable business idea. And while I think the privacy-minded services (Duck-duck-go, Protonmail) have a lot of room to grow, the anti-censorship platforms (Gab, minds.com)...

    My $100m Idea - Building A Smart Contract Web App

    IDEA 
    As I'm in the process of doing this exact same thing, I can relate to a lot of what you're saying. Here is what I've learned so far; hope some of it helps. None of these companies you quoted had first mover advantage. Yahoo, Alta Vista, and Webcrawler all pre-date Google, Vimeo was a full year...

    You’re not selling wholesale?

    NOTABLE! 
    My main suppliers all do this. I order products, they send them to me. They then bill my payment preference (ACH x2, CC x1) at a set time. One I have set up to pay every Friday, one on the 5th and 20th of the month, and the last one on the 10th of every month. I've never worried about not...

    Thanks for meetig up with me! You ruined tacos for me for a long time. The local taco bell just can't compare. That's one of the best parts of this community - instant fellowship with people everywhere. There were thousands of people at my conference, all own the same business, have the same...

    So Cal San Diego Meetup (Mastermind) Group

    MEETUPS 
    I will be in San Diego from June 26 through July 1 for a tradeshow. Let me know if there is any interest in meeting up. I'd love to reconnect with a few people I met at the Meetup, or introduce myself to someone new! Shoot me a PM if you're interested. Thanks!

    You’re not selling wholesale?

    NOTABLE! 
    I'm assuming you mean NOT wholesaling to other retailers. I think that's one of the great take-aways from your progress thread - getting into retailers isn't some insurmountable obstacle for us little guys. You just need to have a product people want, effort to find out who to talk to, and...

    The true Darwin award winners

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I think your understanding of Darwinism is lacking, to say the least. The theory of natural selection refers to the propagation of positive traits and the removal of negative traits of a species as a whole. It has nothing to do with an individual organism's procreation. Plus, everyone you...

    Are Some Businesses Trying to Fail?

    I own a retail store in a small town and am only open M-F 8:30-5:30. These are my hours because that's what the market has dictated. I used to be open on Weekends, but very people showed up on Saturday and no one on Sundays. So I close those days and give people my personal cell in case they...

    Solid Niche Website Idea No Idea Where To Start

    IDEA 
    I know right now in my area, mushroom hunting is a big thing. This seems analogous to your example, at least as far as I can discern. To me, what you're proposing is an Etsy for wild mushroom lovers, where you don't control any inventory, just connect buyers to sellers. Here are a few things to...

    Think Big, and Then Think Bigger Than That.

    GOLD! 
    So at what point does "Thinking Bigger" become "Thinking Too Big"? I've been kicking an idea around for a few months that has loads of potential. But when I start doing financial projections, I get to feeling like Dr. Evil I get the feeling that if I were to pitch in front of a group of...

    Need ideas for my brand name.

    IDEA 
    Don't most people in this space just use their name as their brand? Tony Robbins, Pat Flynn, Dave Ramsey, etc? I mean, sure, they have specific branding on some of their offerings, but there's like 15 categories you listed. You can't expect to become an expert in any of them with so broad a...

    I did one of my graduate rotations at the local VA Hospital. One of my duties was to help staff the diabetes clinic. One of the first weeks I was there, a patient came in that was a newly diagnosed type II diabetic. His A1C (a marker of diabetes) was 14.1%. That's really F*cking high. Almost...
