You talk about some kind of 'eternal punishment.' What is that?

Hi, Surabhi Rani,

I don't recall ever using the phrase "eternal punishment". Can you quote verbatim the full sentence I said/wrote in which I mentioned that, preferably with a link to view the full post/article/book/etc. from which that quoted sentence appears?

I am sorry for all the confusion. But if you can't recall using the word 'eternal punishment,' it means that no such concept exists. I can't quote verbatim the full sentence you said/wrote in which you mentioned these words because I read them a long time ago, approximately 2 to 3 years. It is almost impossible for me to find them out. My query has been answered. Thank you for providing clarity regarding this.

Hi, Scott. Thank you for this generous offer. I would like to seek your advice on fitness training. I have taken some gym trainings but I am not seeing the intended result. Do you think I need to change my gym instructor? Thank you.

Hi, Scott. Thank you for this generous offer. I would like to seek your advice on fitness training. I have taken some gym trainings but I am not seeing the intended result.

What is the intended result exactly?

In other words, what is your primary goal in regard to fitness?

In yet other words, why are you doing the fitness training?

Do you think I need to change my gym instructor? Thank you.

As my book "In It Together" teaches, there is nothing you need to do.

For more on that, please see the following topics of mine:

There is nothing you must do. "Must do", "need to do", and "have to do" are all misery-inducing slave words that create, perpetuate, and exacerbate the miserable delusion that is spiritual slavery.

If you aren't choosing it then you aren't doing it. There is nothing you must do, and everything you do you choose to do.

There is nothing you must do. If it's truly out of your control, it's not something you are doing. If it is in your control, then it's not something you must do; it's something you are choosing to do.

I have no warning(s) for inaccurate ratings actually gave me. However, I been moved to level 5 for scoring books with 0 errors, because I have not found any in the version of books I read thus far. Now after you gave me the points so I can edit work at level 6, I am level 5. Please help me with the matter.

I'd want advice on how to work toward my goals more effectively.
1. I am now designing and creating garments for my family and friends in the comfort of my own home. My ambition is to start a design firm solely for children.

My question is, how could ambitious businesswomen with families start their businesses? What is the first step? Is the first step understanding business foundations, arranging finances, or allocating resources? Or do we prepare ourselves first to confront whatever comes up in the corporate world?

2. Another desire of mine is to attain level 6 on Online Book Club and join your core team. I'm already working hard toward that objective, but I wanted to know what one thing we need to do to get to level 6. What are the essential requirements for reaching that level?

I have been "demoted" because I have been told that I didn't do all the tasks on April 18, but not what task I missed. I have been asking for weeks for someone to fix it so I can post a reply to the BotD review. I posted my goals and you didn't comment. I posted what I didn't agree with about "In It Together" and you didn't answer. The last several mentoring emails I have received from "you" have been blank. I tried to report that, and complied with all the ways I was asked to submit what I was receiving until they asked for a video of the email. I gave up at that point. I finally had to go back to the survey and reply "Yes" to the question that asked if I agreed with everything in the book so that it would take me to the end. I gave it a rating of 4 out of 5 and why and then was asked to write a review. Review is posted. So there is no way to go backwards and fix one missed task without starting over? This is stressing me and certainly not allowing me time to read and review books and make money so I can start my journey to become a "thousandaire" (I don't have 20 years left to become a millionaire). I told you at the beginning that I was a good beta tester and could find all the bugs and I have certainly found some. I just need to get to the committee/staff meetings/techs who discuss them and how to fix them.

Hi,

My question is... How do you vindicate yourself after saying nothing but the truth but lack evidence to back it up?

[Amy Jackson]

Hi, Scott,
Thank you for taking the time to attend to our questions to give great advice.

A friend of mine has a job, but just got an opportunity to start what he believes will be a lucrative business. He would love to keep the job and run the business. However, the hours of the job are not permitting him to dedicate the time he needs to his business. He has to choose between the two. Please which do you think he should let go of?
Thank you.

[Surabhi Rani]

Sir, I have a vision about the culmination point of my work as 'playfulness.' Can you share your thoughts on this topic?

Hi, Harshitha G B,

Thank you for your question. However, I am bit confused. From the first sentence quoted above, it sounds like you already started your business. That is, unless you aren't charging your friends and family for the work you are doing.

In that case, I would suggest that the first step to starting your business is to stop giving your product away for free and instead charge money for it. Otherwise, you've already started your business and made successful sales to friends and family.


With love,

Hi, Amy Jackson,

Due to your use of the word "should", this is effectively a duplicate of the following question:

I need your advice. What should I do?
