Hello everyone, I am just 10 hr old in dis wonderful community. I have never done any venture so i may not have the best advice to give to all. But I am trying to make a document surfing all the posts in here and making a book. The title goes this way… F.A.B (Free Advice Book) and want to upload in here so anyone can can go through it and sort at least some of their dilemma.
So please don’t hesitate to reply to this post because what you think insignificant may help lots of other souls.
Cheers to all.

hi gopinath,
i’m not quite sure i’ve understood what you want to do…
are you saying you want to compile all the valuable advice rodinhooders give each other through their articles and via comments?
or you want to make a document that has links to these relevant articles on trhs?
we have nearly 2,500 posts in discussions + blogs together…
suggestion – what could be created is industry specific bitly bundles – food industry topics, internet marketing topics, e-comm, etc etc

Hi Gopinath,
Great idea! I must say its a hectic task to do but will be worth! Dont forget to segregate post according to their themes, may be you will become nxt Rashmi Bansal!
Regards,

Exactly, m too suggesting to segregate into Food industry, E-commerce, etc. I guess, instead of just putting links, he adds up the contents i.e. actual posts and comments on them as added value then it will be great coz, he can just convert them into PDF or also get it printed with everyone’s consent. It will be hectic but I think that is a great way to do it!

HI Asha,
I am that’s what I am trying to do compile all the valuable advice in a document format including some links.
I am doing it on general advice category like imp tips or points to keep in mind.
Please do post your valuable suggestions, ideas, tips etc
Regards
Gopinath

If do it under general advice category then it’d be difficult for an E-commerce entrepreneur to find relevant post among humongous advice incorporated in ur book!
Gopinath Nair
Hey Aman,
Thanks for support !! Its hectic but I think in future it will be worth for my reading purpose and for others who have no clue what all should be the points to keep in mind ( I am in this stage).
I have got a little bit idea what we should look into while going to do some venture, just want to share it with all.
Please do post your valuable suggestions, ideas, tips etc
Regards

Its more of Dos and Don’ts for beginners like myself. To clear vision and to have a proper context in their mind before they take any decisions

Abhishek, its actually from an Essay Narrative / Song … lyrics are here:
Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of 97…
Wear Sunscreen
If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it.
The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists whereas
the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience
I will dispense this advice now.
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh nevermind; you will not understand
the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust me, in 20 years
youll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you cant grasp now how
much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked.
Youre not as fat as you imagine.
Dont worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying
is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum.
The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your
worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.
Do one thing everyday that scares you.
Sing.
Dont be reckless with other peoples hearts, dont put up with people who
are reckless with yours.
Floss
Dont waste your time on jealousy; sometimes youre ahead, sometimes youre behind
the race is long, and in the end, its only with yourself.
Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in doing
this, tell me how.
Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.
Stretch
Dont feel guilty if you dont know what you want to do with your life
the most interesting people I know didnt know at 22 what they wanted to do with
their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds know still dont.
Get plenty of calcium.
Be kind to your knees, youll miss them when theyre gone.
Maybe youll marry, maybe you wont, maybe youll have children,
maybe you wont, maybe youll divorce at 40, maybe youll dance the funky chicken
on your 75th wedding anniversary.
What ever you do, dont congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either
your choices are half chance, so are everybody elses. Enjoy your body,
use it every way you can dont be afraid of it, or what other people think of it,
its the greatest instrument youll ever own..
Danceeven if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.
Read the directions, even if you dont follow them.
Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.
Get to know your parents, you never know when theyll be gone for good.
Be nice to your siblings; they are the best link to your past and
the people most likely to stick with you in the future.
Understand that friends come and go,but for the precious few you should hold on.
Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography in lifestyle because the older you get,
the more you need the people you knew when you were young.
Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard;
live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.
Travel.
Accept certain inalienable truths, prices will rise, politicians will philander,
you too will get old, and when you do youll fantasize that when you were
young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their
elders.
Respect your elders.
Dont expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund,
maybe you have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might run out.
Dont mess too much with your hair, or by the time its 40, it will look 85.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it.
Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past
from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling
it for more than its worth.
But trust me on the sunscreen…
