What you say, Robert, is absolutely true, not that it wouldn’t be. LOL
It’s only when you spend time in other countries, especially in their homes, that you realize how much less everyone else has.
And this is another place where the 80/20 Principle applies.
You’ll use 20% of your stuff 80% of the time. In this case, figuring out which 20% will…[Read more]

Bruce Hoag replied to the topic What Is Your New Year's Resolution? in the forum Ask Anything 6 years, 10 months ago
Well, Scott, this is much less of a resolution and more of a determination.
I’ve gradually realized over the past few months that I need to create more mental space.
It’s not so much that I’m running from pillar to post and back again as the fact that I couldn’t get on top of my schedule.
You may have read elsewhere that the thing I need to do…[Read more]

Bruce Hoag replied to the topic What Do You Think Of Minimalism? in the forum Ask Anything 6 years, 10 months ago
It’s amazing how little we need to live, both in income and possessions.
I had to learn this the hard way. I went from living in a 2800 sq ft Italian palace to a small hotel room (6 months) to a 8′ x 35′ trailer (> 4 years). Any day, I could be moving into a small and old one bedroom duplex. It seems surreal that I’m actually going to live in a…[Read more]

A member of our family was diagnosed with an illness and one of the recommendations of her Dr. was to strategically de-clutter.
Over several months she gave away things that were filling her cupboards, closets and shelves but were not being used.
The result was a big reduction in stress and a recovery of mental energy.
Not having to think about…[Read more] -
Julia Rotgers replied to the topic How Do You Plan Your Week? in the forum Ask Anything 6 years, 10 months ago
I keep it pretty simple and tend to use short “to-do” lists with no more than 3 items on it.
This reminds me of the most important things I have to do in a day and if more gets done, that’s great!I’m also a big fan of chaos planning.
In other words, allowing chunks of the day, week and month to be unscheduled and used for catch-up if…[Read more] -

When I move, and that should be soon, I’m expecting to get a high speed connection; and that’s when I’ll reinstall the app and go for the showcase.
Right now, on a good day, I get a download speed of 5-6 MBps. Upload is less than 1 MB.

Bruce Hoag replied to the topic Facebook Q and A in the forum Ask Anything 6 years, 10 months ago
Although I’ve never used FB ads, I’d like to suggest that they are a waste of money.
If you haven’t heard, FB has changed its policies. Fewer ads will be shown and more friends’ feeds will appear instead.
So whatever exposure you got before has just fallen for the same price. In other words, you’re spending more in order to get less.

Bruce Hoag replied to the topic Amazon Ads in the forum Ask Anything 6 years, 10 months ago
I don’t use ads anywhere, but I’ll pass along some advice I heard elsewhere.
Don’t buy any ads until you’re making a living.
In other words, don’t buy advertising until your business is profitable to the extent that it supports you.
When it is, then you can invest in a marketing budget.

Bruce Hoag replied to the topic How Do You Plan Your Week? in the forum Ask Anything 6 years, 10 months ago
I’m pretty much with Scott on this.
There have been many times when I’ve planned a week. Usually, by Tuesday, something has happened to change that.
Now I have a pretty good idea of what I want to accomplish in my head, and all I can do is see how the day goes.
That may sound incredibly lackadaisical, but it beats being frustrated all the time…[Read more]

Bruce Hoag replied to the topic Do you think PreneurPal is losing steam and in need of a boost? in the forum Ask Anything 6 years, 10 months ago
Hi Steve,
It’s easy to forget that not everyone can touch-type. I could do it before it was popular. In fact, I bought my first computer because the keys on the electric typewriter kept jamming. They couldn’t keep up with me. LOL And I tend to think and write and the same time.
Perhaps I should explain why it appears that I’m on PreneurPal all…[Read more]

Bruce Hoag started the topic How do you evaluate a new marketing platform? in the forum Ask Anything 6 years, 10 months ago
Sean has told all of us that we need to find a marketing platform for our niche and then dominate it.
To do that, it seems to me, we have to have a process for doing so.
My question really consists of three sub-questions:
1. How do you evaluate the suitability of a new marketing platform?
2. What criteria do you use for deciding when it’s time…[Read more]

Great advice, Yvonne, and a great story I’m glad you shared to remind us all to get out from behind our screens. It is way too easy to even allow our mindset to keep us isolated which is obviously not good. Thanks again.

And let me add one more thing…
I’m sure Sean has taken a LOT more effort on making this group what it can be than many in here give him credit for. The fact that the 20% post more than the other 80% isn’t a new phenomenon…but pretty normal. I, for one, am extremely grateful for all his efforts. I think it would be great for more people to…[Read more]

Scott,
I imagine you’re right. I used to type faster than I could read. So you suggesting that the long posts aren’t something you have to slave over is, I imagine, true. But for ME, things are a little different. I just read your entire post in the Members Tutorial section about how much of our brain we use. That whole question is not only…[Read more] - Load More
