    The 80/20 Principle Library

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Great thread. Thanks. I'd never heard of this guy before. Purely the contention around his style made me curious so I checked him out. While I'm sure he must have a brain to back such a writing style, it does sound a tad ;) pompous.

    Been a while since I made an update here on TFLF... MVP of sales software is up and running (as of today). Working pretty nicely. Releasing it to a small group of people for testing and feedback while I carry on with development. Starting tomorrow, will be using that software in tracking my...

    Fox's 2019 Make $100k Starting Web Design from Scratch Challenge

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    I'm from a coding background myself and I personally opt to use themes whenever possible. Saves on time spent working and increases revenue. There are so many greatly designed themes out there as well. Far better than anything I am capable of creating myself. I think there is a slightly mad...

    Need some directions on starting my journey

    MINDSET RANT 
    I'm an introvert as well. Don't treat it like a bad thing. Just also realise that sometimes our complexes like to masquerade as introversion, when in fact there is something deeper holding us back. Treat this as a challenge. Treat it as an opportunity to grow. To expand the boundaries of your...

    3rd Execution Thread

    EXECUTION 
    A number of things have changed and shifted... The two original ideas I was investigating (potential opportunities in the world of fashion) are not looking hopeful. Market validation for the one idea has been done (perhaps not 100%, but then how would ever hit 100% market validation without...

    Thought Experiment: WWYD in Your Post Powerball Euphoria?

    PEOPLE HOT! 
    I agree man. The way a similar thought occurred to me was in thinking, what if I just die tomorrow? Would I be happy having spent all my time only working towards financial freedom and not engaging in the the things that give me meaning?

    Thought Experiment: WWYD in Your Post Powerball Euphoria?

    PEOPLE HOT! 
    Meditating, blacksmithing, painting & skateboarding. Build an experimental town or two based around alternative economic & social models. Something like eco-techno-capitalist villages. Definitely not talking about anything utopian. We are born to struggle. Just places where things are designed a...

    3rd Execution Thread

    EXECUTION 
    I just did something that really got the adrenaline flowing. The client I have been having trouble with, who has failed to provide me with everything I need has now been ditched. It was quite a momentous occasion and made me incredibly nervous. This was a $4000 project ($3600 after the Upwork...

    EXECUTION 
    Sure thing. Your course has changed the way I think about things completely. Really solid stuff. Thank you. Where I am hoping for my freelancing to go is for it to no longer be "freelancing". I want to get off of Upwork (at least as a freelancer), get bigger clients (and be super selective) and...

    3rd Execution Thread

    EXECUTION 
    Things have been moving a little slowly with fastlane oriented stuff. Still in the process of market validation for the one fashion related idea. First phase of market validation yielded nothing fruitful, but there were significant holes in our overall marketing, so we revamped everything and...

    Initiative Q

    INVESTING 
    I think it's one of those things where we will have to wait and see. I'm 50% sceptical, 50% curious. What they are proposing is essentially through the roof. If it doesn't raise doubts there's a problem in the brain's survival mechanism. New and revolutionary generally signals as dangerous...

    Initiative Q

    INVESTING 
    Yeah... It does seem to distinguish itself from cryptos in that it doesn't need to be mined and won't consume unnecessary amounts of energy. It looks heavily like a pyramid scheme on the surface, but I think that's just due to their model for achieving mass adoption prior to launch.

    Initiative Q

    INVESTING 
    Not too sure. It's pretty recent as far as I can tell. They are employing a similar strategy to PayPal in their early days. Giving out free money. Except in Initiative Q's case, it's free currency that does not yet exist.

    Initiative Q

    INVESTING 
    Not sure if anyone on here has heard of Initiative Q? As far as I can understand, it's aiming to replace all currencies. Would love to hear some people's thoughts on this. I find the concept quite exciting, and given that it's founder (Saar Wilf) started a company that was acquired by PayPal...

    What bad habits have you broken?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    - Smoking - Drinking - Weed - Gaming - Netflix Interesting what was noted above about counting days. I don't do that, but I have been counting months/years since quitting things. Makes sense, but in a way terrifies me as well. I kinda like the feather in my hat.

    Thanks a ton @LightHouse I've been using Trello for a while to manage individual projects, but had not even considered a meta-system for managing everything from higher up. I've been managing individual projects fine, but it's the coordination of doing many unrelated projects that I was...

    Progress thread - Badcourses.com

    EXECUTION 
    This is a good idea. Design-wise, your slider at the top should display the same size images. When the image changes and the area changes size it's not a great thing. Given that it's called badcourses.com, I would personally make it a place where people who have paid for courses can come and...

    3rd Execution Thread

    EXECUTION 
    Progress on both sets of market validation has been slow. One potential business partner is starting to fundamentally irk me. He is obsessed with the idea and is convinced that it will work regardless of validation. He wants me to program for equity, and I refuse to do that without good...
