    Serving two masters at once... makes you go bald.

    For those who are interested in these metaphor stories, I just heard another great one today while listening to audiobook in the car, it goes like this: In Ancient Greece, it was completely normal for a man to have two wives, one old and one young. Both women would love the man very dearly...

    How I went from $0 to $300,000 at the age of 22 (Oh, and back to $0)

    MINDSET 
    Alright guys, time for round 2 of me throwing out a novel as a thread before I leave another year or two and live to tell another tale. Maybe some of you remember me from my Amazon FBA thread I’ve written 2 years ago. I thought about adding what this story to the Amazon thread, however, I...

    Small Wins

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Caught an article today that reminded me of process vs. event. Why Small Wins Matter Most of us start with monumental aspirations - place our event neatly at our bow, and soon find ourselves paddling frantically against a sea of overwhelm, kicked up as the headwinds of process pound a...

    Satistime - Work like a Boss. Sleep like a Baby.

    EXECUTION 
    Hello fellow fastlaners, I'd like to share with you the progress of my first product: Satistime Development on the tool started over a year ago. Back then I was frustrated with the existing todo list solutions, as none of them allowed me to schedule my todos. I could set due dates, but no...

    How Do You Break Up Your Pomodoros?

    MINDSET 
    I know a lot of people on here use the Pomodoro technique, whereby you work for a period of time 30-90 minutes, then you take a 5-15 minute break. The problem I have, is what do I do in that break that won't completely slew my attention onto something else? So I'm wondering what do you do in...

    What Do Productive People Do?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I have recently been inspired by the book we've been discussing on the forum, Atomic Habits by James Clear. A quote that hit me in particular, was the one whereby Clear tells us that our identities are the trailing sum of our habits, ergo when we take on new habits, we are actually attempting to...

    Discipline - The Reason You Might Fail

    MINDSET FAILURE 
    Being a full-time entrepreneur - at least starting out as I am - is at once one of the most glorious and most challenging things I've ever experienced. Hopefully, this will get you reflecting/thinking/considering your own climb. What's Glorious About It? Not needing to wake up to make a...

    How to start your fastlane journey if you are disconnected to the idea of it?

    IDEA MINDSET 
    Hey guys, great to be here, I will keep this concise. I was introduced to personal development just over 5 years ago. I found MJ's (TMF) book and it is hands down the best I have ever read. I am at a point now where my desire to become rich is still strong, but my desire to execute and do...

    Focus Vs loading the gumball machine

    MINDSET 
    hi, I wonder if you could help me make sense of something. I’m well aware of the need to focus on a product/business - however @MJ DeMarco also talks about loading the machine with gold balls (apologies if that’s not 100% how it’s described in the book). I am dedicated to, and focussed on my...

    INTRO 
    Hi my name is Paul and I live in the UK. I'm 57, so not the usual Fastlane member, and have been retired for two years now. I have just started reading Fastlane and unfortunately have seen far too much of my life in the first dozen chapters (living too long on the sidewalk, or pavement as we...

    You don't need motivation, you need discipline.

    MINDSET 
    I’m writing about cheese. Just keep writing and something will appear. I’m too tired to think clearly. When will the fog lift? Maybe in a few hours? This brain is finnicky and unreliable. Makes me wanna just simmalate into a robot already. Imagine a perfect robot mind. It’d be like taking some...

    Focus and Handling Distraction

    We know all too well what happens when we get distracted : We don't get things done. Aside from losing our focus towards the goal, we tend to get sidetracked and pulled into another direction. The point of this post is that distraction is a global issue. Everybody struggles with it. Even...

    Laser Focus?

    MINDSET 
    Focus is good. Being in tune to what needs to be accomplished and remaining on track to get it done. But, sometimes we can be so focused that the obvious things taking place around us are missed. We train our eyes to see what we want while so much goes unnoticed. The same happens with our...

    Monogamy must precede polygamy.

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Let me tell you guys a story. There was a young entrepreneur having having lunch with a billionaire mentor of his. The man was in his 80's and had made his fortune in the oil and gas industry. He told the young entrepreneur when he was a young guy, he leased rights to drill on some land in...

    What motivates you ?

    MINDSET 
    ..... Because I'm not certain what motivates me ! The common feedback I get is that this is a problem but I still persist in my projects so I guess the real problem is that 'I can't articulate what motivates me' rather than 'I'm not motivated'. It would be good to actually pin it down just so...
