I’d like to take a moment to share something interesting with you.

Some of you may know that I sell a course for real estate investors called Cash Flow Freedom University – CFFU for short. I retail the course on my website.

Ever since I joined the FastLane, only about 2 weeks ago, two people have already jumped in, and another is seriously researching CFFU.

You Need to Know

As matter of policy, every time someone joins, I place a call into them. While $295 is not at all a lot of money in a world where courses of all sorts are sold and bought for thousands of dollars, and CFFU most certainly delivers every bit of value, nonetheless $295 is quite a bit. I am cognizant of this and I figure the least I can do is make the call!

Something Interesting

People coming to me from the FastLane are of a very definitive profile. When talking to them, we discuss MJ’s book (I am 2/3rds of the way in and so far agree with every statement he makes). But, we also talk about Cardone’s 10X Tule, as well as the Keller’s The One Thing.

What I’m trying to say is that people here seem to look at life a certain way. We seem to understand that tomorrow is today, and that yesterday matters not at all. As my wife says: “You’re here – what are you gonna do about it?”

I didn’t always used to be this way. I am naturally a slow-laner. I’ve had to work on this and change myself. Why? Because at 40 I clearly realize that tomorrow is today, and all the rest is just excuses…

Newbies – Listen Up

When you are dead, and they are standing at your grave – what are they going to say? What will they remember?

Understand – in a free market society your success is a function of positively impacting someone else’s life. The more people benefit from or due to you, the quicker and farther you’ll travel down the fastlane.

Also remember – this doesn’t have to be your natural perspective. You can train this in yourself!

And finally – our government wants you to impact lives positively. How does our government incentivize behavior – tax code. Believe me, by doing good for others you’ll pay less income tax than if you just focus on yourself.

Good Luck with all of your endeavors!
