On my way to the fastlane and my struggles with Seasonl Affective Disorder

[Karl Anderson]

Hello everyone, my name's Karl. Currently I'm an ebayer buying car parts and reselling them. One of the biggest reasons I resonate with MJ DeMarco is when he talked about his Seasonal Affection Disorder (S.A.D.). It gave me confirmation that I'm not lazy, I'm not weak, and I'm not just a low energy person which may seem like the case when someone is suffering with Seasonal Depression. To know that someone like MJ who obviously has guts, discipline, and drive was struggling with something similar to what I am was life saving. Brings tears to my eyes as I'm typing this. Thank you MJ. Its crazy but I actually took a road trip all the way to Phoenix from Upstate NY to see if I'd like living in the southwest, mainly because of the impact MJ's books have had on me. Turns out I resonate a bit more with San Diego and made plans to move there before next winter.

How I came across the millionaire fastlane is a pretty cool story. I was on craigslist calling on real estate listings trying to find someone to sell me their house. I was planning on renting it out (good thing that didn't work out since I'm moving) So as I'm typing in the phone number to the listing "KLR 250" comes up in my contacts which was the model of a motorcycle I sold years ago. Turns out I sold my motorcycle to the guy and he was actually wholesaling the house. We ended up talking for two hours and he recommended "the millionaire fastlane " and said I definitely should read it. Since then I recommended the book countless times and even bought a copy for a friend as a christmas present.

I'm looking to learn more, meet people, and just immerse myself in the community. I'll definitely be reading every post about Seasonal Depression and making posts about my experience.

Come to Alaska during the summer. It never gets dark -- but, then we only have about 5+ hours of daylight during the nadir of our winters. I hardly sleep during the summer and I sleep very long nights during the winters... it's all relative.

Yeah not a bad idea if I didn't like warm weather so much! I've also thought about being somewhat like a snow bird and just live in a warmer climate during winter months then moving back but I like the idea of starting over in a new city.
