Comment on Why You Should Lose $200-$300 Per Month by SBJ http://www.snowboardjohn.com/how-to-lose-200-300-per-month/#comment-11221 SBJ Thu, 15 May 2008 06:31:02 +0000 http://www.snowboardjohn.com/how-to-lose-200-300-per-month/#comment-11221 <p>I like your eloquence and the time you took to make your point - but ultimately there is no such thing as a skillful entrepreneur with no money.</p> <p>The turn around is whenever your incomings rocket past your outgoings - the point is to focus on skills acquisition, not financial gain.</p>PS there is no such thing as an "upward" goal. People delude themselves all the time into thinking they have "forward" goals, when really all they have are DIFFERENT goals to the ones that preceded them. Do not make the mistake of thinking "more money" is further ahead of where you are now, it may not be. I like your eloquence and the time you took to make your point - but ultimately there is no such thing as a skillful entrepreneur with no money.

The turn around is whenever your incomings rocket past your outgoings - the point is to focus on skills acquisition, not financial gain.

PS there is no such thing as an “upward” goal. People delude themselves all the time into thinking they have “forward” goals, when really all they have are DIFFERENT goals to the ones that preceded them. Do not make the mistake of thinking “more money” is further ahead of where you are now, it may not be.

Comment on Why You Should Lose $200-$300 Per Month by Rebecca Laffar-Smith http://www.snowboardjohn.com/how-to-lose-200-300-per-month/#comment-11220 Rebecca Laffar-Smith Thu, 15 May 2008 05:10:45 +0000 http://www.snowboardjohn.com/how-to-lose-200-300-per-month/#comment-11220 I'm currently deliberately losing money in my business (tax work around to avoid losing my main income to taxes) but this entry made me wonder, how investing money into yourself/business to gain skills would equate into success. To use your poker metaphor, if you go to the table and decide you can lose $300 wouldn't you play it until you were out $300? You need to keep in mind the upward goal as well. When I play the pokies I go in with what I'm willing to lose, I play those coins but the money the machine pays back goes into another pocket. Do I walk out even at the end of the night? Not always, sometimes I'm up, sometimes I'm down but I never blew that entire $300 because I kept the profits instead of investing them into future losses. If you can afford to lose/invest $300 but all your focus is on your investment then where is the turn around? Will those of us who work to lose money never make any? Building generations of skill but not looking at how to apply that skill for profit just creates a talented pensioner.

I wanted my nights free to spend w/ my wife. I decided to get up at 3am 7 days a week and deliver newspapers in order to make the money I needed, free up my days to concentrate on building my biz and have my nights free with my wife. what other people I know who was just starting out in the same business did: kept there jobs and chose to work at what they supposedly really wanted part-time, "until it picks up and I can quit my job". they thought I was nuts to get up at 3 am 7 days a week. they also felt that delivering newspapers was beneath them. fast forward, I have a thriving biz, while they're still at those jobs and the supposed dreams they had have faded away. maybe they've moved on to dreaming about something else. I don't know. I'm not trying to pass off what I did as extreme or a drastic life change to make things happen. In the big picture scheme of things it was little. But it was enough to put myself into the position that I HAD to succeed at this thing that we all supposedly wanted back then. What I learned from that was, you have to keep doing it through out your life. Once you reach destination A, a certain level of comfort, the level of sacrifice necessary to inspire terror to take you to B, C and D rise, too. More is demanded of you.
