    HOT! CHAT 
    I love this. Looking at ideas this way lifts some of the burden off, if I think I'm just "helping" a life-form manifest itself. It also amuses me and makes the work lighter. Thanks for sharing!

    What book are you reading? Right now. Post up!

    NOTABLE! HOT! BOOKS CHAT 
    I recently finished reading The Five Second Rule by Mel Robbins. It was an easy read, and pretty repetitive. Despite that, the simple "starting ritual" at its core helped me overcome procrastination. Something that no other book has reliably done.

    Looking to launch kickstarter, how have you built up your following?

    EXECUTION 
    Hey! I'm in the same boat as you, except I've been building up to it for three years (mindset problem). Having people ready to support your Kickstarter from launch is pretty much the key to having a successful campaign. And it comes back to providing value (yes, there it is again) to the people...

    Your Thoughts On Meditation?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I agree with this. I'm just starting to get into the classic seated meditation, but I also do what I call "walking meditation". It's nothing special. I just breathe deeply, absorb my surroundings, and ask myself, 'Where am I?'. "I", being the observer, the awareness. Should sound familiar if...

    Another introvert here

    INTRO 
    Thanks for your feedback @Mutant! That's a good question, one that I asked myself again yesterday after reading some threads about getting to market quickly. The short answer is: lack of resources, both money and time. To expand on the money part, one thing that I didn't mention in my intro is...

    Thank you. I've gotten into several long ruts, where I didn't move at all. But enough of that, and time to take continuous action, even if they're baby steps.

    Hi everyone! I'm Sharlene from Vancouver, Canada. I currently work full-time in the medical device field. In the past, I've worked in the civil engineering and interactive design fields. I've never considered these jobs as careers, since I wasn't interested in climbing up any ladders in any of...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I had The Millionaire Fastlane in my (very small) personal library for at least two years. Maybe I wasn't ready then to read it, but sometime in the past couple of months, I got sick of my situation and my eyes landed on the book title. Picked it up, read it, and promptly bought Unscripted...
