What is this 4am club? I'm a big Jordan fan and I haven't heard about any of this and a quick Google search comes up nothing about Jordan practicing at 4am.

All the courses have been delayed, I received one for the Tech. Entrepreneur that indicated the delay has to do with IP and copyright issues. Problems that sound like they do not b…

Anyone else having issues signing up to the classes?

I got the emails for Model Thinking and Tech Entrep.

Thank the CRTC for that, there's a lot of complicated regulations regarding the telecom industry and the requirement for Canadian ownership. Which is ironic because we welcome fore…

I always thought failure was an important concept to learn, not failure in itself, but failure and the ability to pick yourself up afterwards. I cringe to think about today's kids …

I have the same issue with one of my domains and I get all types of emails including highly confidential ones including banking emails.

Looks like they are pushing into Yelp territory.

I was in the same boat until I actually sat down and tried to do it. Look, the problem with being a self-learner is discipline, meaning discipline not to cheat by just Googling the…
