Afternoon everyone!

I am considering this my official public commitment to getting myself on the Fastlane to wealth and a life of meaning.

I'm 24, living at my parents house, and have finally reached a point where the mix of boredom & pain of living without my own independence & fulfillment & purpose is too much to bear, and I intend to hustle like a mo-fo until I get where I want to be. I know a little bit of C++, and most of my efforts will be focused in the music & pro-audio industry, but if there's anything I can do for anyone reading this to help you out, don't hesitate to hit me up!

I've got a business idea I'm working on, but no capital to truly get it moving. So, I'm going to be starting with SinisterLex's 15-Day Challenge to start learning myself some marketable skills/sales knowledge and get income headed my way in order to build the businesses/products/ideas I envision to help make the world a better place.


15 Day Challenge

Day 1: Help Someone

A buddy of mine was having trouble with his love life. He was saying how he couldn't meet interesting girls & that all the women he met were shallow and annoying; now, I'm sure there's some degree of truth to it, maybe one or two of the women he met were truly lame, but no way could it have been as bad as he suggested. We talked about it and ultimately uncovered that he was projecting his own negativity into the world in an out of proportion manner to the situation. Before he'd go out on a date he'd be loathing the FACT that he KNEW the girl he was meeting with was going to lead to a lack-luster experience.​

He was defeating himself, and projecting onto the girl before he even had a chance to truly get to know her. So, I talked to him about the concept of state and gave him some exercises to do before his next outing to get himself fired up and excited. This was primarily a mix of incantation, positive intent, and movement: having him say out loud to himself "I'm going to go on this date, have an awesome time, and share an amazing experience of joy and fun with this woman!" over and over while getting his RAS/amygdala involved by having him jump around, do pushups, dance like a madman, whatever physical movement he could think of.​

Later that evening, he reported that he did the exercises before going out to meetup with a girl he met recently and that he felt "lighter than a feather in the breeze" going in and that he had the best evening he had had in long time that night.

So, I'm gonna go ahead and call that a win-win-win for Day 1! :)
