Amazon customer support denied the case at first. I still won! Here’s what most sellers get wrong when dealing with Amazon support... #AmazonFBA #RetailArbitrage #OnlineArbitrage

@SellFlipDad I absolutely love those times. I've found that it might be worth manually overriding the repricer.

Tonight is the most fun I have ever had on Amazon. Brand is OOS. I’m the only seller left 3k sales a month. Repricer is just taking us higher and higher.

I regret to inform you that writing with AI is making you stupid.

A small start is not always a disadvantage. Sometimes it is the fastest way to learn what actually matters.

Starting with less than $100 teaches you something people with more capital often never learn: resourcefulness scales better than resources do. When you start small, you stop trying to look impressive and start learning how to become useful. That is where real leverage begins.

@theo_jil Got to stop the scroll and reply sometimes. And if you're very lucky, you might even get a follow!

You'll never build your dream life by scrolling.

@FlipMeUpScotty Really good growth and the right direction! Keep it up.

End of March. Growing slower than I want but also outsourcing and continuing growth. Roughly 70% outsourced now (prep center + sourcing VA + SerpAPI). Net profit doesn't show full story though as prep center + VA costs aren't included (although minimal).

@LeilaHormozi A big business needs bigger discipline, bigger decisions, and better habits than what got you started.

You can't build a million-dollar business with hundred-dollar habits.

A lot of founders track revenue like it is oxygen. The ones who excel track cash flow like it is blood.

@tyromper @AccentInvesting For sure. Because winning is not impressing people who would not trade lives with you anyway... It is building a life where your time, peace, and choices belong to you. That is the kind of freedom worth following!

@AccentInvesting Winning the game is living life on your terms!!!

A high salary with zero free time isn't success; It's a high-end hostage situation. True wealth is the ability to say 'no' without checking your bank balance first.

Most small business owners do not fail because they cannot make money. They fail because they do not realize fast enough that profit on paper and cash in hand are two different lives. -Sales can grow. -Inventory can move. -Customers can buy. And you can still feel broke. That is when you learn: Cash flow is not a side issue. It is the business.

@bryan_johnson True. A lot of people do not need a new plan as much as they need more endurance. Clarity often comes after you keep going, not before. That is where a lot of life changes: the people who keep moving eventually see what quitters never do.

The solution to so many of life’s problems is to just keep going.

@rand_longevity Every good thing has its time and place.

would you clone your parents or grandparents and bring them back?

A wise man does neither blindly. He learns from his father’s strengths, makes corrections from his father’s flaws, and becomes a man in his own right. The best legacy is not imitation or rebellion. It is taking the best of your father, refining it through your own life, and becoming something faithful and fully yourself.

Most men spend their entire lives either trying to become their father or trying not to. A father’s impact is there, whether good or bad.

Starting a business with less than $100 teaches you a truth most people with money never learn: Resources matter, but resourcefulness matters more. When you start small, you stop wasting time trying to look established and start learning how to become valuable. That is where capable people separate themselves.

@wisdomXplorer More money, more problems...

Do you believe money solves all of our problems?

@bryan_johnson What I hear you saying is that you can grow an audience of influence through X without destroying your privacy. Nice...

When I'm out and about in the world, people recognize me from IG or YouTube at a 20:1 ratio to X. Outside of SF, an X user in the wild is a rare sighting which is strange given how much surface area X seems to occupy. The X paradox: where is everyone?

@wealth_director To take it to the next level: Growth gets deeper when you stop living only for yourself. What you do for yourself may take you far, but what you do for others has a way of multiplying everything.

You grow the most when you stop trying to impress everyone, and start doing it for yourself.

Sometimes the vision that scares you most is the one that challenges you to become someone you have not yet met. That is why it feels scary. Not because it is wrong, but because meaningful lives are usually built by walking toward what stretches you, not what keeps you comfortable.

The scariest visions often lead to the most meaningful lives.

@rumilyrics Being rejected by the foolish is often the price of not becoming like them...

Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

@1Umairshaikh The thing that killed the momentum of my first start-up was placing half-blind trust in others. The lesson I learned: If you wouldn't trust the person with your infant, you probably should not trust them with your business.

What's the #1 thing that killed your first startup attempt? Drop it below. Genuinely curious.
