Hey fellow fastlaners,
I’ve encountered something fascinating and somewhat unexpected on my recent reading journey, and I’m curious to know if anyone else has experienced something similar.
My reading list was carefully curated with a mix of financial and psychological insights. It started with MJ DeMarco’s The Millionaire Fastlane , followed by Psychology of Money. However, after diving into DeMarco’s work, I was so captivated by his ideas that I immediately moved on to his other books, finishing with The Great Rat-Race Escape. The latter was not only insightful but also wrapped in a sensational fictional story that I found incredibly engaging.
Here’s where things took a turn: after being immersed in DeMarco’s perspectives, I attempted to pivot to Psychology of Money. To my surprise, I couldn’t get past page 17. The discussions around Wall Street, which I would normally find intriguing, suddenly felt intolerable. I even tried starting another book on my list, but my motivation fizzled out just as quickly.
This has led me to ponder: Is my newfound intolerance for certain financial discussions a direct result of being so deeply influenced by DeMarco’s ideas? Or am I being overly judgmental towards other financial narratives after being sold on DeMarco’s approach?
I’m reaching out to this community because I value the diverse perspectives here. Has anyone else felt a similar shift in their reading preferences or attitudes after engaging with specific authors or ideas? Could this be a common phenomenon among us fastlaners, or is my experience more of an anomaly?
I’m eager to hear your thoughts and whether you’ve had any similar experiences. Your insights could help me (and perhaps others) navigate this intriguing junction in our reading and learning journeys.
Looking forward to your responses!
