I think you're missing the point of this thread. FYI, I find it difficult to read your posts due to your run on sentences.Right, okay then let's reword this MJ? in your BIASED opinion if you were me, which your not TODAY, but there was a time.you have less than $1000 you want to feed your baby and are working full time, thinking you want to hop off the sidewalk and skip the slowlane,your resources are TINY heck your spending money to use OPR would you look for a second job.

Why do you have to ask anyone this? No money for a prototype? Get another job or hustle for the extra cash. You are wasting time waiting for someone to give you a 'biased' opinion when you should be doing whatever it takes.QUOTE ="BigBrianC, post: 469945, member: 28432"]In the "we can't make your life decisions" thread you ask this.[ QUOTE ]
Right, this is what I saw:
Should I {Enter HUGE Decision Here}?
Beautiful, AllenCrawley, I tried to work on my English,gave up when
no matter how hard I worked I could never get an period or comma in the right
place.Comma-Splicing, too many commas or not enough.
In short I am looking for an informed decision whether I should look for a second job
I don't care if the opinion is BIASED my fear scrapping the project before my prototype gets built
or worse dying and not living to see it in stores.

I'm starting to receive a lot of emails, and even messages on this forum that request advice on major, life-changing decisions ... as if, I, and the forum, holds some type of crystal ball that knows the right decision for your life, your family, and your happiness.
Do I quit my job?
Do I move across the country?
Do I build the website myself? Or outsource?
Do I risk going into business with Joe Blow or stay in school?
Do I start this business? Or that business?
Do I do this?
Do I do that?
Folks, I don't know!
I can't make these decisions for you.
The forum cannot make these decisions for you.
Everyone is different and only you know you. Some people are dealmakers. Some are introverts. Some are networkers. Some are analytical geniuses.
And yet, please understand that every decision of major consequence in your life carries with it RISK. And yet, RISK is fundamental to the Fastlane because it is the ROAD LESS TRAVELED and often involves sacrifice, and hard-work beyond the "well-traveled" road.
You have to do what is right for YOU and what YOU think will make you happy. And guess what? For some folks, that just might be a Slowlane -- no worries -- life is about happiness and being resolute in your dreams and goals. Whatever path you take, understand that everything extraordinary in life often involved an extraordinary risk.
If you are having trouble making a big decision in your life, I suggest you use the WADM decision matrix that I have used so many times in my life.

I have been HAPPY in every decision this matrix solved for me.
So to sum it up, I don't know if you should quit college.
I don't know if you should quit your job.
I don't know if you should move to another country.
I don't know if you should quit that business and start another.
I don't know if you should piss-off your parents and do what they don't want.
I don't know if you should learn how to code, or just partner.
And sadly,
the forum doesn't know if you should quit your job.
the forum doesn't know if you should move to another country.
the forum doesn't know if you should quit that business and start another.
the forum doesn't know if you should piss-off your parents and do what they don't want.
the forum doesn't know if you should learn how to code, or just partner.
While I'm flattered that I am asked about such big decisions, my answers are automatically BIASED based on my life experience. The forum responds in the same fashion.
This does not guarantee you will get a good answer based on what is best for YOU.
Take a deep breath, and ask yourself ... What is going to make me happy not just this week, but over the long term? Should you be blessed with another 40 years of life, is this the path you want to take? And remember, not all of life is rainbows and unicorns, the challenging path is the path of growth.
As for my take on decisions, you should already know what my answer will be ... the Fastlane path. But again, that is ME.
I am not you.
You may possess other strengths, talents, and attributes that make the other answer, BETTER.
Good luck and happy decision-making!
Right on time. Will he see it and understand?Thought this might need a bump
No.Right on time. Will he see it and understand?
