Choose Your Opportunity Cost
มุมมอง 1.4K6 ปีที่แล้ว
What are you willing to give up right now to even take a few steps closer to a life that you wanna live? Like Gary Vee said, it comes at the cost of Angry Birds or Netflix and chill, or even the bar on a Friday night. Maybe it’s time to give that up in order to become something more. Because if you’re feeling complacent, if you’re not feeling good with what you’re doing, then you have to change...
This One's From The Heart
มุมมอง 6816 ปีที่แล้ว
Hey guys, I am a few weeks away from my birthday and life is moving faster than ever. Just 4 years ago I was broke as all hell and living in a fraternity. And then window cleaning company happened, and then Amazon, and then this channel. Last year I covered the world and this year I took my life and business seriously to the next level in China. Not a day that goes by where I step back and thin...
How I Negotiated A Better Price WIth My Chinese Supplier - A Story
มุมมอง 1K6 ปีที่แล้ว
Everybody wants to go for a high quality, high brand and even upper priced products. But negotiating prices in China's factories is really tricky. When it comes to negotiations, these guys are the pros. The hardest part is that you never really know if you are getting a good or fair price. There are some tactics and tricks that you can do but at the end of the day, it's all about the experience...
Yiwu, China - Pros & Cons Of The World Biggest Trading Market
มุมมอง 17K6 ปีที่แล้ว
When I first came to Yiwu before, I thought it was awesome. Many small stalls, a mix of factories and trading companies. There were ALL types of products that you can find and source here. What's even better is that you can do sample order of a few hundred units at factory prices to test your products. However, on my second run I saw the downside of Yiwu. I was looking for a very particular bea...
The ONE Mindset That Is Preventing You From Starting
มุมมอง 8156 ปีที่แล้ว
I've been trying to tease out THE ONE MAJOR mindset that is keeping people from stating... and I think I go it! This is by no means THE ONLY ONE but if we are gonna approach this from an 80/20 perspective, this one definitely fits the criteria.

The Future of Ecom - The End Of *ALIEXPRESS* Dropshipping Model
มุมมอง 4.1K6 ปีที่แล้ว
Where’s the e-commerce going in the next 4-5 years? Dropshipping is probably gonna be the first one to go. If you really look deep down on the drop shipping platform for what it is, it's basically taking advantage of people who don't know what AliExpress is. It's up to you how you make your money. I'm not in the business of telling people how to make their cash. But I will implore you to consid...
Lesson From Gary Vee - Self Awareness
มุมมอง 4626 ปีที่แล้ว
This one was straight from the heart. I started probably in a much worse position than you. 30k student debt, no money in the bank, no job, living in a frat. But once you get sick enough of doing nothing and being a nobody, the gears are bound to turn. There were a lot of things I didn't like. I tried it all. 13 jobs and a few failed businesses later, my first business love was a window cleanin...
Why You're Not Starting (And What To Do About It)
มุมมอง 7926 ปีที่แล้ว
When you’re doing or not doing something, you’re giving people a permission to do the same. Sometimes people think that they are not good enough or they don’t know enough to start a business. But in reality, your brain is just tricking their mind that some people are just lucky, smarter or have the capabilities to make more money than you. I was in the exact same position, I was in a fraternity...

The Chiang Mai Trap + Secret Bonus I'm Working On
มุมมอง 1.4K6 ปีที่แล้ว
Everybody loves Chiang Mai... EVERYBODY. But, as always, there is a BUT. To every upside, there is a downside. The beauty of Chiang Mai is also its drawback. It's so easy to live there that you start losing your edge. Cheap cost, relaxing, good community, and laid-back attitude. It's quite easy to slip into 3-4 hour work days and taking a looot of time off. On top of everything, lack of plannin...
My First 45 Days In Guangzhou, China
มุมมอง 9K6 ปีที่แล้ว
I've been around the world all of 2017 and China is UNLIKE ANYTHING I've experienced! This country is just a whole other level. It's not easy. Especially the first months. There is a whole different world in China. Language and firewall aside, you are dealing with a completely different culture and a set of technology. Here I talk about what my first 45 days looked like. Hope this will help you...

      Hey Steve. I'm actually semi out of it. Hence why I stopped talking about it. Things have changed beyond my expertise and I like to talk about what I know haha. Maybe I'll talk about my life post-Amazon. You know, other ventures, slow travel, cities, adventures.

    What does the english language have to do with being Educated? Gosh! Chinese have a 5,000 to 8,000 year history. We were writting poetry, philisophy, building cities and waging war then. The anglos only appeared on the scene a few hundred years ago, coming out from the germanians. What an idiot!

Now I'm retired, living in the Philippines, and doing what I love. Well, I mostly did what I love anyway, even if my jobs 9-5 werent always my favorite. Good luck!

I'm already too annoyed after a few minutes :(. You just ruined the video. Great but too loud music + talking cancel each other. Music disturbs talking, talking disturbs the music. In result: I hate the content, no matter what it is. Thumbs down :(.
