School for Startups Minutes

Welcome to the School for Startups Minute with Jim Beach. Every week, a new topic, and the topic this week is how successful entrepreneurs are different from everybody else. I've already suggested that they obsess over systems and not goals and that they embrace rejection because they learn from it. I have another thing to suggest they do differently right after this. Successful serial entrepreneu...

Welcome to the School for Startups Minute with Jim Beach. This week, we are talking about how successful entrepreneurs are different from everyone else. I've already suggested that they rely on systems to an extreme degree. It allows for much more predictable results. That's in their personal life: systems for success, systems for sleep, all of those sorts of things, and in their business life. Th...

Welcome to the School for Startups Minute with Jim Beach. I think we could all agree that successful entrepreneurs do something differently. There's just something different about their mind, their actions, their beliefs that allows them to be so very successful. This week, we're going to go through five of those things and discuss things that entrepreneurs, successful entrepreneurs, do differentl...

Welcome to the School for Startups Minute with Jim Beach. This week, I've been trying to present a happy message that counters what we see in the world today. It is very scary right now, with our 401(k)s going up and down. The stock market is crazy. The price of oil, inflation. We all know the problems that we are facing. But I've tried to share the message that good things are happening as well....

Welcome to the School for Startups Minute with Jim Beach. This week, we are looking at the world from a little bit further away. Instead of getting up close and personal in the microanalysis, we're doing a macro 40,000-foot analysis, trying to show you that the world is actually getting better. Despite all of the bad things we see, despite the wars and inflation and the stock market going up and d...

Welcome to the School for Startups Minute with Jim Beach. I am arguing this week that the world is better than we all think and feel, and that there's never been more opportunity. There are great things happening at the macro level. And I know it's hard to accept because the micro level of the war, the taxes, the inflation, my job being cut, all of that is so scary. But I'll tell you, at the macro...

Welcome to the School for Startups Minute with Jim Beach. These are scary times right now. We have elections coming up, and the other guys are already stealing it. We have a war going on that I don't think any of us really want. The market's going up and down like an NCAA basketball, and my team is not winning, and it's a scary time. And then they throw AI at us. I want to share another way to loo...

This week, I want to talk about some things that will make you happy and feel a little more content. You know, every day right now, it feels like the world is falling apart. We have wars, elections, markets going up and down. Your 401(k) is like a basketball. You turn on the news, and you only hear bad stuff. There's something that they don't tell you, though. And this week, I'm going to focus on...

This week, I am giving away business ideas, ideas that you could start with absolutely no money in the next week and use to make $50,000 in the next year. That is the model. Some of the ideas are a little bit crazy. Today's idea will be a little bit crazy to you. But I know a guy who makes $100,000 a year working one day a week doing this business. I mean, it's crazy, but don't you want to hear wh...

Welcome to the School for Startups Minute with Jim Beach. I have seen data that says more people want to be entrepreneurs than want to be rock stars. That's right, it's cooler to be an entrepreneur than a rock star, but the hard part is coming up with an idea and the money. This week, today, I will give you an idea that you can start absolutely free this week and use to make money. Go on a website...

This week I have been enjoying talking about summer. I guess you have figured out that summer is my favorite season, and I just absolutely love it. This week, I have shared five reasons why I think it is just so great. I will share that fifth and final reason right after this. One of the reasons I love summer is that it is fleeting. It never lasts as long as we think it will. Remember back in June...

Summer is special, and that's what I'm talking about this week—an ode to summer. I've shared some of the reasons I think summer is special and unique, and I will share another one right after this. We spend a lot of our lives buying things: clothes, furniture, cars, houses, and that's okay. There's nothing wrong with that. But over time, they go away. In the summer, we also spend our money on expe...

This week is an ode to summertime. I've been talking this week about why summer is so special to me, and I think we need to just acknowledge it and take a little time off from talking about business and entrepreneurship to talk about summer, how special it is, and how lucky we are to have it. I will give you one of my reasons right after this. One of the reasons I love summer is that it reminds us...

This week is an ode to summertime. I want to take a little time off from talking about business and entrepreneurship here and talk a little about summer and how awesome it is. It deserves special recognition. This week, I am sharing my reasons why, and I'll share one of them right after this. One of the reasons I love summer is that it gives kids some time off, and some of the time they have durin...

Summer is special. This week, I want to talk about some of the reasons I think summer is awesome and maybe a little bit better than the other seasons. I'll give you my first reason why I love summer right after this. One of the reasons I love summer is that it reminds us to slow down a little bit. You know, we have such busy lives, and we're always running, trying to get another thing done. But ma...

I was blown away the first time I heard about neuroplasticity—the idea that, no matter how old we are, our brain can continue to be better, to be sharper. I'll give you one way to do that right after this. You will not get the benefits of neuroplasticity unless you take care of the basics: exercise, eight hours of sleep, and lots of water. I take vitamins and supplements, and there are amazing Str...

All this week, we are talking about neuroplasticity, the idea that our brains are malleable, changeable, and that they can actually continue to grow, not get bigger. I will tell you one way that you can get smarter, no matter how old you are, right after this. One of the best ways to continue to get smarter is to always challenge your views, your perceptions. Our brains work overtime trying to con...

All this week, we are talking about how you can continue to get smarter, no matter how old you are. It's called neuroplasticity—the idea that our brains are still changing, no matter what our age is, and if we do things right, we can create new connections, new synapses in our brain, and actually get smarter. I'll give you one way to do that right after this. It's time to get lean, healthy, and sa...

I will tell you one way that you can get smarter, no matter how old you are, right after this. One great way to make your brain smarter is to grow new synapses, new connections by literally making new connections, interact with more pe...

This week, I'm going to talk about neuroplasticity, brain plasticity—the idea that we can really, truly make ourselves smarter, not better educated, but smarter. Every day this week, I'll give you a new way to achieve that! It's just like a stroke victim learning to talk or walk again. I'll have my first suggestion right after this. First way to get smarter, no matter how old you are: seek new pur...

This week we have been talking about five underrated success skills-things that we may not know that we do, but may be your secret superpower. Things like being a great listener, or showing up on time, or keeping your word, or simply being curious, as that creates amazing new opportunities. I'll have one more thing to introduce to our list right after this. Gratitude. You know it may not sound lik...

This week we are talking about hidden superpowers, underrated skills that a lot of people have that aren't talked about every day, but lead to a huge part of their success. For example, they might not be a great leader and have leadership skills, but they're absolutely wonderful at something else, which makes them a huge asset to the business, society, and everyone around them. This week we are ta...
