ok. so we all come here to learn from other successful individuals right? one thought I recently had was that sometimes we should just listen to our gut instincts.

one thing about the world's richest people is that they didn't listen to others even when they were the smartest and brightest and sometimes more successful.

when they ended up listening to their guts and taking action, moving forward through adversity, and creating something nobody ever heard of, the same people who thought it was impossible were now calling these entrepreneurs geniuses.

I hate to say it but I personally have had a number of ideas that were shot down by others who I thought were more successful, only to read about someone else's success story sometime down the road.

Bottom line is that if you really want to be a part of the elite members here (and I am not one of them yet) who are truly fastlaners, then you need to learn to listen to yourselves, listen to your gut, and lead. You are the one who will be making that crucial decision every time.

Just something I was thinking about the other day as I was developing my plan. Would love to hear other's thoughts on this subject.
