How Do You Find Your Place, Keep Hope Alive While Pursuing A Direction When Many Attempts Have Fallen Through?


As I rebuild my hope and my life in general..work on creating a niche for myself, I find myself asking when considering going out on my own in a particular career direction and/or creative endeavor that is not a typical career, etc ….?what is the point when> A) so many previous attempts/directions have fall through already or didn’t work out due to various reasons, B) I have real health limits that make it hard to just push on through like a bull and most of all…>C) there are so many others doing similar pursuits that I ask… ‘is there even a place or need for what I have to offer??…should I even bother putting it out there??
I vex quite a lot over this and struggle to continue summoning up the bravery or confidence to push past my own worries or the illusory limits of the market. Moreover I struggle with gaining the clarity to keep on pursuing something because I feel like, ‘well It’s been done or is being done by so many…so why bother?’
It’s very discouraging….I know what I would tell someone else…but I’m me and cannot seem to see past my own worries or the world. A lot of that youthful, fiercely independent and outside the box bold a$$ thinking and living was kicked out of me when I got sick and things fell apart and now as I rebuild I am doing so in a different, new fashion that is not quite as bold as I used to be. So I’m literally having to figure this out now, 10 years older and life circumstances GREATLY changed as a result of it all…etc….anywho…
Curious what others think about about pursuing something that is already done by many others, against all odds and still being positive about it?
Thanks! 🙂

Best Way To Soundproof Niche?


I just got a very nice new speaker system for my tv, with very good bass and everything
problem is, the only wall I can put it on is shared with my roommate’s bedroom. he has complained about the noise of it, which makes using it difficult
I was thinking what if I put thick fabric behind it, along the wall? I dont know much about acoustics, but would this solve the issue? would it reduce the sound quality?
It is in a niche, maybe only 4 ft tall and wide and a few feet deep. If I could just put something to cover the niche’s walls with, that would be best

How Should I Handle This Website Acquisition?


I have been a member of a niche group website for much of the eight years it has been around. At one time, this website was thriving with new members, an active forum and constant interaction from the developer. However, along the way the developer has put less and less time into the site and the traffic has decreased by over 90% in the last year and held steady at 300-400 unique visitors per month.
The core group that is still around the site has complained about the lack of leadership and how the site is dying. I was not sure how bad of shape the site was in until I did some research, but I e-mailed the developer/owner and asked if he would be willing to sell.
He said, “of course” and I asked him what it would take to take the site off his hands since he no longer has the time to invest in it. He said I would have to make him and offer and went on to say that the site maintenance was “very cheap” and that with his ad contracts was taking in about $200-$250 per month in revenue.
Since I had no idea how to value a website, I begin to search on Google. I found several website value calculators that would provide values based on a number of factors. Most of the website value calculators I used (I used 7-8) gave me a value between ($290-600). There was one that valued it at $13 and one at $2400 but the majority were in the $300-600 range.
So, I responded to him saying that I had no idea what a website was worth and that based off of these site calculators and their guesstimates that the site was actually bringing in only $6-60 per month in advertising, I offered him $350.
I have not heard back from him in two days after getting almost immediate response the first couple of days. I know this has been him M.O. around the site at times, but I figured he would at least offer up some dialogue, especially since I found out his e-mails go directly to his iPhone (not like he has to log in to check them).
I wondered if maybe I insulted him with my offer? I know that if I were to hire a firm to build a website similar to the one he has, it would likely cost me about $2,000-3,000. On the other hand, he is putting very little effort into the site and many within the site’s community feel the site is dead or soon will be.
So, my question is this…how should I proceed from here?
Part of me wants to keep the website going just because it has meant so much to me and the other members of the community for the past eight years. There is another part of me that thinks with some effort, maybe it could be resurrected and possibly reach a level where it is bringing in $300-400 per month in revenue. Then there is the ambitious part that wants to build off of the site and grow it into something that could generate thousands per month in revenue.
So how should I proceed? Given his lack of time and commitment to the project, should I continue to press him to give it up? Was my offer too low and should I submit a revision? Can I do that without creating an atmosphere where I’m competing against myself? Should I notify some of the other community members of my intention and try to get them to lobby on my behalf or could I possibly create competition for myself where there is none if someone else were to try and take it over?
This is all new to me. The site has the basic structure that I need and that I can expand from and seems like it would be a much better deal than building a custom site. On the other hand, I cannot force him to sell and he may be content to leave it be and tinker when he can and just ignore the pleas of his community.
Any advice?
Thanks in advance!
