    Do I have to be extroverted to be a successful entrepreneur?

    MEETUPS 
    No. I'm the top sales agent for my part time job and I'm an introvert. I never let my personality type hold me back.

    How long is too long?

    QUESTION 
    This is an excellent question. For me, it took about 3 months to make my first sale. I think what's more important is that your business follows the C.E.N.T.S. commandments. Also, maybe it would help to look at other people in your industry. How long did it take before they became profitable...

    Dead-End Sh*t Jobs ... Yours?

    NOTABLE! 
    They pay is abysmal and it's not mentally stimulating.

    Should I Study my Passion or should I Even Study?

    MINDSET OFF-TOPIC QUESTION 
    That is a choice you will have to decide on your own. I have met several entrepreneurs with various forms of education. Some have high school diplomas and others have Phds. You don't need a masters to be a successful entrepreneur. College/University will teach you theories; however, those...

    Choice of the sidehustle

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    1. Does your business idea follow the C.E.N.T.S. principles? 2. Do you have the capital to get started? If not, are you willing to work another side hustle that requires more time and less capital like mowing lawns, designing websites, or detailing cars? Many people make money buying things for...

    Should I Study my Passion or should I Even Study?

    MINDSET OFF-TOPIC QUESTION 
    You will have to decide what's best for your situation. I chose to leave the house at 18 and become independent from my parents. I struggled financially (and still somewhat do) but I'm making more progress than when I was at home. Maybe instead of business (because of the laws in your...

    Does anyone REALLY wake up excited in the morning?

    NOTABLE! HOT! 
    Excited - not really. If anything I'm groggy. Thankful - definitely! It signals that my life journey isn't complete and I have more adventures to uncover.

    Should I Study my Passion or should I Even Study?

    MINDSET OFF-TOPIC QUESTION 
    No - I listen to Audiobooks because it encourages me to finish the book. Plus, I can work on other things while I listen. What's more crucial is completion and implementation. If it takes 1 week instead of two days to read a book, that's fine. Focus on finishing the book and implementing it. I...

    Should I Study my Passion or should I Even Study?

    MINDSET OFF-TOPIC QUESTION 
    1. Easy - don't date a slowlane girlfriend. You can't convert or change anyone. When you're growing your business, you'll be introduced to more people (men and women) that share your mindset. Birds of a feather flock together. Right now, focus on becoming the right bird and eventually, you'll...

    Should I Study my Passion or should I Even Study?

    MINDSET OFF-TOPIC QUESTION 
    Yes I've experienced this problem. Currently, I do not have friends. I spent time with family and that's it. I decided to stop being friends with slowlaners and sidewalkers for two reason: 1. It's taxing to be around people who don't understand your mindset 2. I don't have free time to hang...

    Should I Study my Passion or should I Even Study?

    MINDSET OFF-TOPIC QUESTION 
    Okay great! That's your 5-year Planasy. Now, what can you do from now until October 30, 2024, to achieve this? Focus on better grades so you can attend university in Munich? Get a job that allows you to save money for your side gig? What is it? Write it down and take immediate action.

    Where do you see yourself at 21? What would he be doing on a daily basis? What things would your 21 year old self tell you to do NOW?

    Should I Study my Passion or should I Even Study?

    MINDSET OFF-TOPIC QUESTION 
    unless you already have a profitable business, I would stick to school. Study what's going to get you a job because you'll need one before your business takes off - which could be years. I was passionate about photography when I was your age but I studied Graphic Design because I knew there was...

    How did your first steps look?

    INTRO 
    My steps were like this 1. I read a book on how to make money selling X (I made sure the business followed the CENTS commandment) 2. I took the first step 3. When I encountered specific problems, I read more books, articles etc. on how to solve that specific problem 4. Rinse and repeat

    Reading biographies gives insight on the PROCESS instead of the EVENT

    MINDSET 
    Hello everyone, One of the most profound lessons I remember from MJ's book is focusing on processes instead of events. I've noticed that most Wikipedia, Newsweek, Forbes, etc. articles are event instead of process-based. The features focus on the entrepreneur's net worth and perhaps only 2-3...

    Thoughts on changing your NAME (and IDENTITY)? Both the first AND the last!!

    MINDSET 
    You never mentioned why you were bullied - was it because of your name? I have a very unique name - it's so unique, I've never met (or heard) of anyone with it. I've had adults make snide remarks about it ("is that your real name?", "oh wow, your named after a country"...) Personally, I don't...

    What improved your life so much that you wish you did it sooner?

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Quitting social media - including YouTube. It was a form of escapism for me. Now instead of scrolling, I read books or take a nap. Productivity has increased dramatically and I'm getting better sleep. If I need the answer to a business problem, I buy or rent a book from Kindle Unlimited.

    Forum update coming, what do you want?

    IMPORTANT! 
    I noticed the site is a bit clunky on my phone. Is the Fastlane forum on Tapatalk? If we could use this or a downloadable app for mobile users?

    QUESTION 
    What's preventing you from creating your own line of fragrances? That could be a great CENTS business.
