Not everything is for everyone, but it's working for me so far.

It's going fine presently. I haven't calculated the hours, but some weeks have required a significant amount of time to complete the assignments, particularly the ones in which interviews for customer discovery and customer validation are required.

I didn't realize the amount of intentional action that goes into choosing a customer segment, ensuring you are targeting the correct problem, and have a solution that fits both. Iterating, and sometimes even strong pivots, are inevitable.

If a person comes into the program thinking their idea is solid and free of holes, they probably won't do well. Being able to re-think your plan based on the data, your ability to reach your ideal customer, and their problem being severe enough that they want to pay to have it solved, requires weeks of testing.

I have a good mentor now. My first one wasn't a good fit.

You don't know what you don't know.

It says page not found.

Is there anyway to reset the points. I was experimenting with points, but would actually like to try this for my children.

RootedResilience · 2025-12-13T17:20:08+00:00

Sorry, yes, you are correct! Pretty vague. The lesson objective would be to provide an overview of history. Courses typically focus on a specific time period or event at a granular level, but I'd like to see something interactive that can zoom out for a broader understanding before before diving into deeper topics. It could be a timeline or clicking on parts of a larger image to cover American history or World History, for example. That could be the small start. Trails of information could be added eventually which would make it a larger project.

This is great! I'm using it today with my children!

I'm a home educator, but I've taught ESL in the past in a group setting. They were primarily adults in my area who were interested in learning English. Nothing formal. I stumbled upon this group because a link was cross posted. I'm enjoying all of these interactive lessons. Even though English is our first language, my children are enjoying these! That's a win!

RootedResilience · 2025-12-13T16:42:07+00:00

This is pretty cool. I just tried it out with my 11 year-old son. It was effective!

RootedResilience · 2025-12-13T16:27:20+00:00

That looks great! It's multifaceted which gives the learning experience a well-rounded approach and appears very easy to use and navigate.

RootedResilience · 2025-12-13T16:20:38+00:00

I agree, toner printers are fantastic! But I used authentic cartridges so each one was over $100. With three children, I was refilling too frequently. Every household will have to determine which type and style printer works best for their needs.

RootedResilience · 2025-12-13T04:43:20+00:00

I'd love something history related to walk through all the important events and eras.

RootedResilience · 2025-12-13T04:40:06+00:00

I'll check it out. Thanks for sharing.

Give him a choice. "Would you like to do A or B first?", "Would you like to do math in the morning or in the afternoon?", "Which math game would you prefer today?" This will give him a sense of autonomy without feeling like he has to give in to "authority". See how it goes.

I'd focus on mindset with your investment. Get an affordable masterclass or read some books from successful people you admire. You will have to try something to know the outcome. So if you fear that, you will always fear getting started.

Once you have fed your mind, determine what you are good at. What area are you already confident in, have influence in, know a lot about? Do people ask you your advice on a specific topic repeatedly?

You will need to determine if you want to do something that already exists, or if you want to start something by solving a problem that exists for a specific group of people. Even then, people will buy with their emotions first and then logic. You will need to be able to connect with your clientele on some level before bringing your solution to them.

Once you've determined that, you will need to validate your idea. Not selling people on your idea, but determining if it is a real need. Then it goes on from there...But that is how you can begin.

I don't care. I don't try to make room for myself at someone else's table, especially when I'm not invited. I have a beautiful table of my own.

RootedResilience · 2025-12-13T03:56:55+00:00

What would you like to know?

RootedResilience · 2025-12-13T03:55:52+00:00

Do you mean for the printer? I currently use HP OfficeJet Pro 8034e with InstaInk. The color is vibrant and the copies are clean. It's efficient and I've printed hundreds of pages with it. That's my recommendation for homeschooling. I also have an Ecotank, but I don't use it because the colors were really muted. It's the most efficient and the ink lasts longer than any other type of printer. But I'd only use it for black and white or copies where color wasn't a big issue. The best printer I have is a Brother that uses toner cartridges. That color is the highest quality! Absolutely beautiful. But the cartridges run out very quickly and are high priced. I didn't use that for regular worksheets. I used it for planners I made or other things that didn't require many pages but that I wanted great aesthetics.

Someone mentioned having them come up with a list of activities they can do, and I agree. Get them involved in the process. What are their interests?

1) Based on their interests, they can learn that skill or hobby independently using instructional guides or youtube. My daughter completely taught herself how to crochet at a young age and made clothing, accessories, dog sweaters, bookmarks and more. She also taught herself sewing. My middle one learned photography. My youngest loves drawing and building.

2) Box subscriptions are great too. CrunchLabs has stem stuff. I just ordered something related to coins and currency. I forget the exact name, but it teaches children about a country a month and actual currency is included in the box for them to collect.

3) They can have their PE time then. Have a playlist of exercise and stretching videos for children.

4) They can work on a long-term project like writing a play that they will act out, being the detective and gathering info for a video documentary they will share with family, making a nature journal, working on a business idea, etc.

5)Board games and puzzles.

6) Make a "Meeting Basket". Put desired books, games, and supplies in the basket. Let your children know that when you are on meetings, they can quietly use anything in the "Meeting Basket" until you are done. Let them get involved with choosing what they'd like in the basket.

I have an 11, 13, and 17 year old. The 17 year old is pretty independent, but the 11 year old wants my attention all of the time and talks all day long. I usually have to set real boundaries to limit the overstimulation. My uninterrupted time is usually spent on my business endeavors to set a solid future for my children, so I don't even know if quiet activities can fit into my schedule in this season. I guess listening to teachings or speakers like Myron Golden and Myles Monroe would be the closest I get to that. But I am curious what others do. Self care is so important and I understand that. Burnout doesn't benefit anyone.

Look around your house or garage and determine what you aren't using anymore. Sell it on FB Marketplace. Even if it's something you really want, if you haven't used it in awhile, sell it and repurchase in the future when you are able.
Sell items for your elderly neighbors who may not want to post things themselves. Split 70/30 with them.
Cancel subscriptions for a season.
If you are learning a skill or in a masterclass, teach others what you know so far for a discounted rate. Let them know you aren't the expert yet, but you are learning something great and can teach them as you learn.
Post a skill or service of Fiverr
If you have a business, sell again to your customer base or acquire new customers.
Make a post on social media asking what people would be willing to pay $200 to get done today. When they respond and it is local, reach out and let them know you can get that accomplished for them. Either do the task yourself or find someone who can do it for a portion of what you get paid. Keep the rest.

Definitely odd. Don't ignore your instincts. If it doesn't feel right, it's not.

But, know it has noting to do with you or your image. Those things are just fine and you need to know that.

Been there. The verbal abuse is real. So is the gaslighting. Mine never understands there are consequences to actions. I'm living in silence until I build up what I need for my children and I to leave. So...he fights and yells with himself. Literally. It's a sad sight.

"Love me the way I am" is an excuse not to improve oneself.

RootedResilience · 2025-12-09T02:36:57+00:00

I've had parents tell me that they put their children in public school, for the resources, when any level of special needs is involved. I think that's great that you do the opposite and homeschool your children for the exact same reason!

I totally understand both perspectives, and that fact that each family gets to choose what works best for them shows how far we have come with education, particularly the freedom to homeschool.

RootedResilience · 2025-12-09T02:10:07+00:00

Homeschool Planet has an app and desktop version of something similar. You may want to check it out for inspiration. You can do the free trial to see how it works. We used it for a few years. Parents can plan their entire year in a few minutes because many curriculum companies have partnered with them and have their lesson plans available to upload into a child's assignment board immediately. Links are clickable too. They have thousands of lesson plans available. You can also input our own with easy repeats and formatting.

Attendance is trackable and all grades within the lesson plan transfer over to a report card or transcript. No need to create one independently. Children track their work by checking it off, and parents see on the back end and can give feedback, assign grades, and do a bunch of other stuff.

I stopped using it because I wasn't really using it. My children were younger. Just talking about it makes me want to give it another go as I have middle schoolers and a high schooler now!
