    What's self-defeating about realizing what you don't enjoy doing and deciding that's not something you want to dedicate any time/energy to? If Vincent Van Gogh was alive today and decided to host an art show at the local museum for an entrance fee, would you talk down on his decision to not...

    Why the 'wow'? Even if he were to start a business in the future where coding would be an integral part of its operations (such as a software company of some sort) he could very easily hire coders and/or get a tech-savvy Co-founder while just learning the basics so he has a decent...

    Hello to all current and future millionnaire entrepreneurs!

    INTRO 
    It's never too late. Warren Buffet didn't become a billionaire until age 60. Ray Kroc was just a salesman (and a bad one at that) by his early 50s before he got involved with McDonald's. Numerous examples illustrate the above point. Also, no one knows what to get into. Not until they...

    Hello to all current and future millionnaire entrepreneurs!

    INTRO 
    Welcome and wishing you all the best in your journey! Feel free to start a thread about your (future) business if you already believe you know what you want to get into. It's a great way to get feedback from others who may have gone down a similar path. At 37, you still have a lot of time to...

    1,000,000 Followers On Instagram: How I'm Growing My Account By 100,000 A Month

    Thanks for the detailed breakdown Damian. Can you also explicitly tell us how it is that you go about joining these giveaways? For example, do you DM large accounts in advance, or are there platforms where one can sign up for this? Besides that, good luck on GNTM and whatever it is you're...

    Personally, I can't offer much guidance in terms of what you can do. However, as a 23yo who is in a very similar position as you I would advise you first to *relax.* Always thinking that you're not where you could be is a very growth-stunting thought pattern that I promise you will be highly...

    The guy just poured his heart out and there's only 3 replies? Damn. The reason I clicked on this thread in the first place was because I could feel it was about something dark. And those kind of things strongly resonate with me. I guess a Clinical Psychologist would say that we are both "high...

    Getting Rid of Toxic Habit for Good

    MINDSET 
    "Fake it till you make it" kind of thing. I LOVE it! I now relaize that what eventually made me revert to my old habits in the past is not FULLY comittimg myself to changing. Maybe I was doing one or even two of the things you mentioned above, but definitely not all. Thanks for the advice man...

    No problem Chris, any input is appreciated. I'll make sure to check this out. As Day 1 is slowly coming to an end I have found that constantly reminding myself of the true pain that engaging in this behavior has caused to me (emotionally & physically) versus the lack of true pain when not...

    Thank you for the support!! Much appreciated and good luck to you too! I've been "trying" to get rid of this for a LOOOOONG time but since acquiring a better understanding of the human brain and how it weighs pain and pleasure to make decisions (again, all thanks to @ChrisV) I am now in a much...

    This thread is dedicated on my efforts and willingness to finally put an end to a habit/behavior that has been plaguing my life for the past 3-4 years. Keep in mind that I won't mention the actual behavior here, for no other reason besides the fact that it doesn't matter. However, if you would...

    Yeah I saw that! Can't get enough of Joe's wisdom and conversational skills. I remember thinking some years ago how much knowledge and insights a guy like that must have attained through all the interviews he's done over the years. Partly, but only because of the "accessibility" of their...

    You're absolutely right Chris. As someone who wasn't born in the US but has been here for the past 2 years I've noticed that the brand is glorified much more outside Europe. However, I was meaning that more towards how Mercedes approaches its management and marketing and not purely in terms of...

    I am actually familiar with this pyramid chart and find it to be a good starting point when it comes to evaluating the price points of various luxury (and non-luxury) brands. However, as you get deeper into luxury and even branding in general, you come to realize that price is only a tiny piece...

    That's a big IF though, don't you think? One on hand you have a metal that is more functional yet (more) abundant and on the other, one that is not only more scarce (scarcity aka rarity is a big part of ANY luxury product/brand) but also looks awesome! Just from its appearance it becomes...

    How to Create Your Very Own Mass Movement!

    INTRO 
    As someone preparing for an entry into the luxury sector in the next 6-12 months, I have realized that creating a movement around my brand and 'offering' will be key to long-term commercial and financial success. I have not spent any time studying cults, religious groups or fanatic political...
