    Hi JPoh thanks so much for taking the time for this. Here's my newest project: mindstare.com I'm a developer with not that keen an eye for design and just build the functionality first.

    Website Is Up! Please Give Feedback

    Have a look at this link below. It's just a random cooling sleeve I found on amazon. Scroll down to the product description area to see their images, copy, explaination of how it works, who it is good for, what results are common etc. Do something like that on your site and you'll be golden...

    Whatever business you want to start, start small.

    EXECUTION 
    150 visits is too little. average conversion rate is 2 to 5% for someone who knows what they're doing. get 1k visits minimum. and put something like hotjar on the site for free so you can see what people are doing. also, get out on the streets and give people free samples if you can. See if...

    A love letter to the slowlane grind

    theres a million other things you can pursue after making it. Things you maybe couldn't pursue beforehand. Life isn't one videogame. It's all of them.

    Seeking Advice on Expanding Beyond My Programming Bubble

    MINDSET 
    You got a recurring revenue stream right away after posting in a few groups and said nah I'll pass. Don't know what you were expecting. But I bet it took you less than 1 hour to post and get those 2 responses. Do you think if you posted in 10x the places you would get 10x the results? What...

    Seeking Advice on Expanding Beyond My Programming Bubble

    MINDSET 
    You don't have any great ideas right now... so just go with whatever you have. Beats not doing anything. Most people fail multiple times. Even if you did have a great idea, you'd likely fail. But you can still learn just as much from executing on a bad idea. Just build and market something...

    Could someone critique this please

    IDEA 
    That's pretty common with reddit. It can be hit and miss like most other things. They hate any whiff of self-promotion, even if you're giving stuff away for free, are part of their community and just want to help. Make sure you read their individual rules and follow them. Be genuine, be honest...

    Let’s be real: If you're over 35, you don't have a chance.

    The best way I've found to interact with people like OP is: "Yeah you're right. You'll never make it because of circumstances that are entirely out of your control. Now what?" "Why are we even talking about something that can't be controlled? You've already made up your mind. Why spend the...

    Need advice (ielts+study abroad) plz

    CHAT QUESTION 
    Apparently one of the most common "requirements" for success in business is industry experience. So whichever you choose, you will probably go into that industry for a few years, learn how it works and then you'd know what business to start since you've already worked in that industry and know...

    Need advice (ielts+study abroad) plz

    CHAT QUESTION 
    I left my country to study in UK. The stuff I studied in wasn't really of much help, but it got me in a better country and allowed me to learn/build other stuff. So don't worry about your degree that much, unless you're pretty sure you wanna turn it into a career.

    is my app too controversial? Need help

    IDEA EXECUTION 
    Hello everyone! I've been working on an idea for a while and finally launched it in January this year. It's a politician review website. Think IMDB or rotten tomatoes but for politicians. https://vhoice.net After a few posts on reddit, it got about 40k visitors a month for the first 2 months...

    HOT! CRYPTO INVESTING 
    I've read all of your guys's replies here and I guess I've been surrounding myself with the wrong people. The kinds of people who do only buy random coins and hope to go up. This post was mainly for people like that. In contrast, most of the people here who are into these things seem to be...

    Hitting a wall in the desert of desertion

    EXECUTION 
    I'm gonna throw some stuff out here. Let me know if this is you: I don't think you lack motivation. You're just more motivated towards TV, video games, the internet or reading books. And it's easy to understand why. In the beginning it's easier to keep going since the vision is fresh in your...
