Hi all

I'm a 26 y/o engineer from Canada

I first became interested in entrepreneurship when 2 of my friends and classmates left their jobs after 1-2 years in the industry to form a start up in 2015. This is also around the time I first read the Millionaire Fastlane . I'm an investor in that company, btw.

Here is my entrepreneurial history:
- sold t shirts on cafepress as a teen (probably less than 5 total)
- created a video "talk show" and sold t-shirts for it as a teen (sold quite a few, but all to people I knew)
- created a joke instagram which I grew using instagress (~2500 followers). using this I then created a 'clothing brand' selling hats, etc and used the same instagram account to market it
- in the midst of creating a productivity app using someone I found on freelancer.com. still in development stages.

Basically I've dabbled in somethings...put in minimal effort, and then quit when it didn't make me rich instantly. I feel like I understand the concepts and principals of "fast lane" but my execution and consistency has been poor. I picked the book up again yesterday and started reading from chapter 19 and hope I can get going on my fastlane journey.
