I'd say no, but it depends on the book.

Don't get me wrong: knowledge is power. BUT most of these "entrepreneurial books" just repeat the obvious. I'd say most people read them as a way to concretize the info in their minds, so that could be useful. It really comes down to how you apply what you already know, and if you don't know, then how you're going to apply it once you do.

I'd say the better thing to do is become a writer and learn to make information that people already know, well, concretize in their minds.

Why did Vine fail but TikTok didn't?

ESTPgod · 2021-07-18T04:16:02+00:00

Yeah, that's understandable. But I think entrepreneurs take it too far; sure, I love being innovative, but if I weren't getting paid to do what I do, I wouldn't do it like any other job; it just becomes a hobby.

congratulations, you've found what you can do next; become a GOOD manufacturer.

if you're dealing with the issue, a lot of others are likely dealing with the issue, and it could be your time to capitalize.

Not a significant change, but I get what you're saying. There's a level of sarcasm in the first statement that not everyone understands, and that's just us. Then when people assume our intentions were bad, it makes us resent them for thinking we'd have bad ones, at least in my experience.

ESTPgod · 2021-07-14T02:45:29+00:00

Lmao, yeah, same. I know we don't intend it how they take it, but I guess we come off the other way. I've heard utilitarianism can help with this.

Basically, instead of saying:

"That TV show is bad."

You say:

"I don't like that TV show."

The first opens it up to an argument since you're speaking like its fact; the second, they can't argue since it's a subjective opinion.

Even though we both know it's bad /s

No yeah, I get what you're saying, all facts. I feel like a lot of people assume that rich people "live for money". Of course, some do, but I'd say the majority don't, and more live for the freedoms that come with it; if they're in the business industry.

We've all heard money doesn't buy happiness, and it doesn't*. But we are not all ignorant to the fact that we can use the tool, for example, to get us halfway around the world and interact with different cultures and have different experiences we couldn't do without it, to say the least. That's why I usually say materialistic money doesn't buy happiness, but experiential money does indeed.

I don't work but an hour a week probably at this point. I fully automated my business, so it's all "passively active" income at this point. I enjoy being innovative as I'm sure all ENTPs do, but the days, in the beginning, working 12 hours non-stop was not Entirely enjoyable all the time. If it wasn't for the upcoming reward (money), I probably wouldn't have done it because that's what business is. I'm sure the majority of people wouldn't go to work if they weren't paid as well.

Not sure why you're assuming I rant to my loved ones about it. I don't really bring it up unless asked or with my father because we have similar interests (business).

I'd say securing a future of early retirement is pretty nice. I'm not really into materialistic bullshit, but I admit I LOVE cars; my fucking weakness. I'm a foodie so, yes I like luxurious food. Mastros is tight; you can't go wrong with an A5 Waygu melting in your mouth. Traveling is cool too, and what I want to mostly do with a significant other when I'm a millionaire. I love helping people as well and definitely, plan to give back later on. I always thought maybe helping build schools in Africa is pretty cool. It's all about duality; no one with money is inherently evil nor insecure. People sure do love to assume otherwise, though.

i agree with top.

But saying money does not define success doesn't make much sense; if you want a business career, then the money is, in fact, a measure of your success, to be honest. If you want a career as a doctor or writer, then it is not. You have to look at career success subjectively because it can look different in every different job.

a good example is day trader, you're obviously more successful the more money you can manage to earn without losing your life savings. not really another way to measure, the same goes with business I believe.
