My wife is partially in the fastlane mindset. She knows there's process involved, and that process takes time. I did ask her to be very sceptical about anything I come up with. It means my idea must be strong enough (or tought through enough) if I don't want a proverbial slap in the face.
It might actually be a benefit she doesn't (yet?) buy into the fastlane mindset. You mentioned she's a sceptic person, and that may just be the best counterbalance to have. Someone to keep your feet on the ground, to slap you in the face when after three tries that half-assed idea still doesn't work out and you should start focusing on something else. Someone to bounce ideas with.
I would not worry about getting her into the fastlane mindset. All you need is enough wiggle room and to try, fail, and try again. And an open line of communication where you can share your worries and dreams, and each contribute to those dreams in your own way. And as many others here said before: proof is in the pudding. Get that fastlane rolling, and look back together how the process was not only a fastlane process but also a growth process in life.
