    Unpacking My Kettlebell After a 1000-Mile Flight: A Lesson in Urgency

    MINDSET 
    Here’s a picture of a 16 kg kettlebell being unpacked after a 1000-mile flight from Darwin to Cairns: As you can see, this ball of cast iron has (unsurprisingly) arrived intact. Checked in (hilariously) as “oversized” luggage, I grabbed it off the baggage carousel at my destination and...

    The Real Reason Why You Can't Come Up With A "Good Idea"

    IDEA RANT 
    Because you're looking for the perfect idea where the competition is just perfect for you and it doesn't require much to get started and get going. You want to get your first sale tomorrow and not later than that. Seriously. I am right, right? You cannot generate any ideas, when you're only...

    What are some of the excuses that kill dreams?

    MINDSET EXECUTION

We selected one, a software idea that he had been cooking for the past year. Right there on the spot, he...

    This may reduce or even stop your procrastination

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    I came across this video by accident several weeks ago when I was procrastinating and it really put things into perspective. It has helped me to focus more on my business and take the uncomfortable actions that I know I have to take. And every time I don't feel like doing something in terms of...

    "Procrastination"

    HEALTH 
    Let's debunk the myth of procrastination also here, on the Fastlane Forum... It is so guilt-driven and feels for me as sitting on the "constant hustle and grind" culture, right next to "you will rest in the grave, don't be lazy"... I am not a person to tell anyone what they should or should not...

    Stuck in a scripted world!!

    MINDSET 
    Roughly 2 weeks ago, I made a post on this forum about how I'd be recording my daily progress in there. I did that once, and it was all. I had no progress to write about, I was too lazy to learn anything new, about my business or anything else. I have tried meditation, working out, reading...

    NOTABLE!

    New Year's Goals are Stupid

    MINDSET RANT

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I'm not sure if you're ready for what I'm about to ask you to do. It's going to be painful, you're most likely going to cry, and it's going to suck at first.

    Lessons from a Kamikaze Entrepreneur...

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Years ago I had a roommate that I regarded highly. This guy was one of the smartest guys I'd ever met. He was in sales and could talk his way around and through any subject. Because he was a couple of years older than I and looked the part of success I thought highly of him. He always had a...
