If you never actually release your product you never really fail. I'm also a fan of the Star Citizen thread and Chris Roberts has a similar approach, except he's raised $500M+ by saying he's going to make the best donuts game ever.

Just for the record I never said it was going to be fast or cheap or easy I just said I’m doing it and I’m bringing you all along to live vicariously through me as a kinetic hillbilly you’re welcome.

I’m sorry if progress is slow at times but I have to handle the rest of my life as if nobody else is going to because nobody else is going to.

When people ask me irl when I’m opening I ask if they want to chip in and so far three people were like how much? And I was like mind your business goofy.

Simple isn’t always easy

There’s the guy who carried a calf up the hill every day til it was a bull and then he went to town and kicked everyone’s rear end so hard he got famous.

He didn’t write asskicking plans he just worked on kicking rear end until it was time to kick rear end and then he kicked a bunch of rear end.

But how is his calf carrying business? Is he doing well? Is there demand for it?

oh I get it now.

marketing strategy === beat up all potential customers until they spend sufficient money in donut store.

OP really does love to retreat to claims of physical supremacy & boasting of the sorts of behavior that conforms to whatever the type of dude who has wrestling trophies on his wall considers to be "bad rear end."

I really don't think such stuff is really as transferable skill set as OP tends to believe it is. But by all means, he should continue to plan to kick rear end on a retail store venture by bragging of the ability to go out and beat up the entire town.

His name was Milo of Kroton.

He was a professional athlete, competing in the Olympic games, among other contests of strength and skill. Carrying the calf was his plan to get better at his business, being an athlete, by building his strength. You could almost say it was his...plan of business.

And of course to be a several-time winner at the Olympic Games you had to do more than be strong. You had to know how to wrestle, for example. No amount of carrying a calf on your back's gonna teach you that. It's almost like any endeavor requires knowledge of and repeated practice in multiple aspects of something.

Anyway, I'm missing the point. What's the calf you're carrying? Posting about making donuts? How's that preparing you for the "time to kick rear end" so you can then "kick a bunch of rear end?"

Also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milo_of_Croton#Death

quote:

Legend has it that such feats were his eventual undoing. His final test of strength came when he was traveling the countryside and met a villager trying to split a stump with hammer and wedges. Milo excitedly asked the man if he could attempt to split the wood with his strength, not using any tools at all. The villager, honored by Milo's offer, went off to fetch food while Milo worked. Milo immediately tried to pull the stump apart by inserting his fingers in the crack where the villager had driven the wedges. As he pulled the stump open, the wedges fell out, trapping Milo's fingers. Without the wedges there to hold the crack open, when Milo tried, he could not free his fingers from the stump. There he waited for the villager to return with food. Legend then says that Milo met his end when wolves, or a lion, took advantage of his predicament and descended upon him.
