So I was reading another guys thread here... about him wasting time and money as an wantrepreneur..


And so, I'm gonna list my mistakes as well as my goals here. Mostly for making sure I follow this plan and not go off course.


My mistakes:
  • Build a website to test concept: $500 + 1-2months (When I could've tested on Craigslist = =)
  • Download tons of free content and not consume it $0 + long time
  • Dabbled in this and that and not focusing on anything: $1000 + 1 year of time I'll never get back
  • Not focusing enough, giving up too early: 1-4 years?
Goals:
  • Learn copy / Learn marketing: $100 + 3 months (Currently here.)
  • Start offline business
