learn to code and book a free session buttons bring different sizes annoys me

also the large bubbly stylized typeface is very tight, could use some spaced out tracking if possible, a little crappy to read. otherwise, good

couple of things

  1. women tend to be hardwired for certain things, one thing that tends to go along with creating a nest, and things they find attractive in a partner would be some level of security. alot of women may be looking to the future saying "this crazy son of a bitch is making all these crazy risks while Im trying to settle down and maybe make a family or have some form of security, what if he starts a business and loses it all when we have kids?" especially when a woman is more dependent on her man. now this is a generalization. maybe your girl doesnt even want any of that, but.. alot of times women serve as the "voice of reason"

  2. she may be way more risk averse than you

  3. it can be hard for other people to see the vision, sometimes much more concrete plans give confidence, like a business plan

also, have you talked to her about this? communication solves alot or might help get you on the same page

its certainly possible but challenging. I can see upscale boutique type things or as others have said "experiences"

but retail as a business has a high failure rate. like I think maybe the highest. Plus depending on where you live, retail stores are being targeted.

but it is certainly possible.

when I was in school one of our instructors definitely delved deep into the meaning of photos and "what are you trying to say"

and I understand you should and can totally portray something and tell a story and imply a deeper meaning

but sometimes shit just looks cool

plus I think alot of artists have an intuition for those types of things and dont necessarily think about it. it just looks right

[–] CarelessCoconut5307@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Yes, alot of businesses start that way

however, there are certain things that will remain a side hustle or side income, until you properly put in the appropriate work, in my opinion

im saying to me, the product absolutely matters. I dont want cheap chinese shit that doesnt work

idk, I think you need both, but without a quality product I dont know how youd be successful.

thats why I personally hate marketing and advertising, as well as sales. I just want to know if its a good quality product that fills my needs at an appropriate price.

THIS

the best wealth book imo

its really short, and I first heard it through Earl Nightingale reading it in a youtube video, but "as a man thinketh" by James Allen is basically my bible now

I watched the founder and honestly I was expecting a heart warming story about a startup, but really it seemed like Ray Kroc just sort of got lucky and stumbled across an incredible production model that two other guys devised, stole it, and then happened to get stopped by Ryan Howard from the office who told him to make it into a real estate business

I mean its semi inspiring, but part of it was like, he didnt really do much outside of taking other peoples ideas and capitlize on them

if anything, it showed me if you have a good service or product, do your own business, and also guard your ideas. one thing that stuck out to me was Ray Kroc was listening to motivational tapes on the road, which I do

not in my experience.

spent at least 2 years in therapy for depression

it can be nice to pay someone to listen to your shit

but I dont really need someone to just tell me to do the things I already know I should be doing

I feel like the entire session was just catching them up to how I felt and providing context and very rarely got to anything meaningful, and nothing that was really life changing
