    First entrepreneur steps on Upwork following Lex DeVille's Guide

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    As many times in my life, I started something motivated and then I let life get in the way. So I followed the advice of Lex Deville's post and then I applied for like 5 jobs and that was it. My profile stood there for a couple of weeks. Beginning of this week, I was complaining to my girlfriend...

    First entrepreneur steps on Upwork following Lex DeVille's Guide

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I'm sumarizing the asignments that Lex Deville gives on his post, but I highly recommend watching his original post (which also include videos): Day 0: 1. Why am I doing this: I rationally realize that I have so much more potential then working a 9-to-5 job while earning a limited income. Not...

    First entrepreneur steps on Upwork following Lex DeVille's Guide

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    After viewing MJ's video From Flat-Broke to Filighy Rich I realized that working as a developer, I'm at the level of specialized labor and it might be time to take it to the next step: Selling specialized skill. I have bookmarked Lex Devilles Upwork Guide a long time ago but always made...

    7 day water fast and keto - a journey to build a better vehicle [+ indept explanation of keto and fat adaption]

    HEALTH 
    Not a problem. And I don't believe you did :) - a short deviation is not a problem for me. I was just a bit afraid - having seen many flame wars on nutrition themed forums - that such thing might happen here. But both parties were friendly, open minded and so no issue for me. If only all people...

    First of all I want to answer but I just hope my post / log doesn't become a vegan vs meat eater debate. I am very much open to opinions, discussions and so but I don't want my log to become the place for it. I have total respect for people who chose to be vegan. I have just also seen allot of...

    Thank you for your response. I'm curious, are you on any kind of medication now? (being type 2 diabetic) I have seen a few documentaries on low carb and on fasting, and I don't know which one, it was, but I remember somebody doing a full 3 week fast (only potassium, magnesium and sodium...

    What are peoples thought on Modafinil?

    HOT! 
    I have taken it and it works well, if you make sure you have something useful to do. Take it and start watching youtube videos or playing a video game (thinking "i will start working / studying when the modafinil kicks in) and you are doomed for the day. Your intense focus will be on the matter...

    An update on my diet and performance: Still doing strict keto. Because of large fluctuations in bodyweight, i'm not measuring it for a while. I can see a drop in my waist / stomach measurements: Stomach: 103 cm - 40.55 inch (-0.8 cm / -0.31 inch since day 7 of the fast = less then ever since i...

    The Undercover Billionaire: Building a $1m business in 90 days

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I'm just reading the book "The 16 laws of success" by Napoleon Hill. (I am sceptical about Hill, but even if he didn't meet allot of the people he wrote about, I believe he was a keen student of successfull people) The book starts with a discussion about the "Master Mind". And what people say...

    Accelerated Intelligence: Maybe one of the best blogs on the net

    Thank you so much for this resource. I love it. One gem I just read about, and just started doing myself instinctively is the stepping stone method (vs traditional goal setting). Meaning I don't know what I want to do with my life, or who I want to be,.... So instead of setting big goals, I...

    The episode is online on themovies.me (won't share exact link since I assume this is not really legal to view it there ). Just watched the first episode. Not that spectacular yet. One gem was the fact that he says: "find your buyer first" (and see what they want, and how much they want to...

    From difficult 15 minutes run to 4 hours run in 2 years.

    Nice post and keep up the good working. I'm going through something similar. Mid 2018 I was weighing 120kg, no exercise, 15-20 cigarettes a day. Started a program to build up from 0 to 5k in 10 weeks. I completed it, and between then and early 2019 I fell of the bandwagon a few times, but kept...

    Ketosis versus fat adapted. Disclaimer: I'm not a biologist (actually, I'm in IT) and my knowledge is just based on lots of reading. I can only say that I actually read allot of scientific studies oppose to blogs, forums and bro science. So feel free to argue. I know that I know nothing. When...

    I did not know the 75 hard. But curious as I am, I googled it. Looks very interesting. It is similar to other things I have read like the "30 days of discipline" and "Monk Mode" both by the hand of Victor Pride (Bold & Determent blog) and also "Unleashing Yourself" @Damian Pros (Dare and...
