    Need a website, should I do it myself or outsource?

    EXECUTION 
    Just a suggestion that you may want to consider using Facebook ads. You can target them extremely effectively if you know what you are doing (and if you don't, there are some great free resources available from experts in this area), and the investment is minimal. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Is my association with the term "deserve" holding me back?

    MINDSET 
    You know, back in the day (1998-2001...during my days as a homeless person and social justice activist) you would be 100% spot-on. I even wrote songs about it, lol. Today is different, though. Studying economics in grad school completely changed my perspective. Your comment has great insights...

    Is my association with the term "deserve" holding me back?

    Wow - thanks for this, Andrew. I identify with so much of this. And the positive affirmation analogy was perfect! No dog shit cupcakes for me. They never did it for me anyway.

    Is my association with the term "deserve" holding me back?

    MINDSET 
    Thanks for taking the time to respond in depth, MJ - I appreciate it! And, as an economist myself, I agree fully with Milton Friedman's sentiments about greed. As long as negative externalities are negated, I'm satisfied (although my post wasn't intended to invoke a debate about capitalism or...

    I couldn't agree more - thanks for this!

    Is my association with the term "deserve" holding me back?

    MINDSET 
    Wow - thanks everyone for your awesome replies! I've been working like mad all morning, day, and night to meet a deadline for my beta testers and haven't been able to spend adequate time absorbing and replying to your comments. It is now stupid late, so I'll have to do that later. I definitely...

    Need a website, should I do it myself or outsource?

    EXECUTION 
    I use Wordpress for my sites and absolutely love it! But I often design my clients' sites using Squarespace because it's so much easier for people to use. The SS learning curve is virtually nonexistent. Back before I was designing websites, I used Wix, Weebly, Blogger, and Wordpress (dot) com...

    Need a website, should I do it myself or outsource?

    EXECUTION 
    I'd strongly recommend against using Bluehost. If you join any business Facebook groups about entrepreneurship or Wordpress and search "Bluehost", it will undoubtedly be made clear why. It is one of the many EIG companies and a huge number of users have encountered unacceptable problems with...

    Is my association with the term "deserve" holding me back?

    I just discovered TFM about two weeks ago, and I am blown away - it is truly the most influential book I have ever read. I love the matter-of-fact attitude about how we aren't entitled to a damn thing (despite the fact that I've been accused more than once of being a bleeding heart liberal), as...

    What the hell is "consulting"?

    When I worked as a client-faced ROI analyst/economist for a corporate wellness company, our clients often paid consultants huge amounts of money to cross-check our analysis. Here is the thing - the consultants ALWAYS agreed with us and at best posed a few surface-critical questions for which we...

    You are most productive at...

    MINDSET 
    I have been thinking about this subject a lot lately because my most productive time is between 9:30pm and 1:30-2am. I get up at 7:30am most days quite reluctantly, but once I'm up, I function well until the early morning. I'm quite sure that this has something to do with the fact that the house...
