Your right.
idk what happened man, all of a sudden I don't feel like doing shit. Not for school or work or anything. I guess its like some kind of mental snap back effect. I'm not used to being so routine oriented and disciplined. I'll have to start again, starting NOW.
 


Momentum is a tricky vixen. It works both ways. Opportunities multiply as they are seized, but the reverse is also true.
 
If only I knew exactly how to make temperature regulators and oxygen generators, and we all lived on mars.. I could charge everyone for units and repairs... owning one sick ass monopoly baby!
 
I can't wait to start on my personal site.. I think that affiliate marketing is gonna be fun because I'll be using all the marketing shit I've learned to sell things...

that excites me so much more than designing sites cause.. designing sites doesn't really use THAT much psychology.. and thats where its at for me... testing shit and using my love for psychology to advance me... yeaahhhhhh I have to remember that.. Thats where its at for me. I might as well just keep doing psych for school since its really what I love to learn about.. and theres not as much math... which I struggle with,, and what computer science demands I be pretty good at.

I'm going to take what I love and learn to make it work for me.. because I love it. Why the hell else would I do anything else? Psychology is my specialty, not techy stuff.... I'm building for myself an intuition and knowledge the human mind on a deeper level that what I would assume most other people wouldn't be aware of. I mean, I have to study like a fucking monk in math and hardly pass with a c, where as in any psych class I really don't have to study as much, or at all and I retain everything much quicker. It might be because I'm more primed for mentally applying the shit I read in relation to the other things I've learned... idk... thats my passion, I might as well make it work for me.

Boy you been smoking some dope?! :)

Sounds good, sounds like you're happy man. I disagree with you about the psychology of design, there's A LOT of psychology behind why designs look good and work/convert well.

Keep doing what you love man, congrats.
 
for real?! I didn't know that, I wonder where I can find some books on it... What the names of that would be.
 
Finals are coming up, I gotta study like a crack feign on crack. Got a job for a friends father.
I'm not sure if I want to let my partner know about it because then I'd have to split the profits with him while I do most of the work, which is really gay. So I'm thinking of just doing the job apart from his knowledge. If anything I'll probably just tell him to make me something that I'll pay him for, and leave it at that. Cause he's the Flash dude, and I'm the CSS/HTML/PHP/Web Design dude.

So far I have yet to make any real money with all the jobs he's presented and this one is more legit to me. So I'll just go ahead and make it and present it to my client and get paid. I won't need any flash I don't think, besides I could just find some pre-made flash stuff online.
 
Projecting to make $700 in a few weeks from now. I'll post up what I did and what actually happens.
 
I sent out an email to this guy about his website, he has yet to respond, so I'll call him at some time when he's home and hopefully not busy and schedule an appointment to meet or have a phone meeting to go over everything.

Word of advice, your "partner" doesn't have to be your "partner" for every single project you take on.

Every major player in SEO always emphasizes that you diversify. In the internet world, one flip of a switch and a revenue stream can tank.

Apply the advice ^^^ to your revenue streams as well as partnerships.
 
I've lost track of everythiiiing! I've got some money making opportunities ready to take off if only I secure them and make them happen. Time to reorganize, remake my vision board and focus on fewer things with greater intensity.

I forgot that my focus must be fine tuned to be effective. I've got to make some sacrifices. My gf was really taking up a lot of my time, things started getting cold and unenjoyable and I had been a pussy and didn't break up with her. Finally though my coldness reached her limit and she stopped returning my calls and texts...

Yes, I know it was reactive, but hey, I've got some more time to use each day, and don't have her on my mind distracting me.. this is great!

So anyways, Re-made my Daily Assessment and am about to reorganize my workspace. Adding pictures to my vision slide and am ready to make those little systems that perpetuate my motivation, remove distraction, and keep me progressing.

I'm tired of loosing focus, and becoming aimless and stagnant because of a female or laziness. I've got to find a way to create and accelerate and perpetuate my momentum.

Also, I'm gonna set goals which are not to far fetched and try to calculate how long it will take to get what I want. I was looking at ferrari's but thats obviously asking to much to me. It would take to long to be rewarded for that. SO, instead I'm going to use shorter rewards to keep me motivated. So I'm gonna do what it takes to be able to afford a Honda Civic si 2010 cash.

Also I'm going to shoot for getting into FSU.

I'm gonna go out and work on myself until I can consistently meet and hook up with the kinds of girls I'm in to.

Finally I'm gonna drop 30 pounds and get nice, toned and sexy as fuck. I like to feel healthy. I've yet to have a handsome 6 pack so I'd like to be able to look at them be feel that sense of accomplishment.

Maybe after awhile I'll pick up some noble cause to live for. But for now I'm working I guess to simply develop that "action taking" muscle.

Congrats man! Stay on top of things, send him updates until he tells you you're sending them too frequently. Clients love when you're on top of things, and next thing you know this 1 project will get referred to others and you'll have yourself 3 new ones.
 
This invoice is taking forevvvvvver to fuckin get through. Which is not good. The guy has to much time to research and think and everything else however I am giving him a good deal so he's happy with his research and my offer.

I'm taking a Introduction to Business class and I might switch my Major to marketing. I'm not 100% sure yet though.

I want to start a small web development company. I've got some ideas though I want do some research and keep developing my ideas. And also I want to organize it properly and be thorough enough to enhance my chances of success. at least for awhile, therefore I'm using as much of the stuff I learn from my intro to business class as I can.
 
The business book seems to really help me cover all my bases. At least thats what it feels like. Really lays out the bases in generic terms and leaves me to fill the rest in. So as I go I can just go step by step building my campaign in text first before implementing anything.

Right now I'm putting together everything I've known about identifying my target market with the extra information and structure the book provides. I feel a little more confident.
Although I'm learning that I have to accept the feeling of uncertainty and stay positive. Everything I do is a build up of learning experiences.
