    Anyone else feel massively stupid after learning self development?

    MINDSET FTE 
    There is something that I read or saw years back but the concept really stayed with me. 4 Stages: Unconsciously incompetent, Consciously incompetent, Consciously competent and finally Unconsciously competent. I feel UI is when you have no idea. CI is when you read a lot and start to compare...

    Happy Birthday MJ DeMarco

    HOT! OFF-TOPIC 
    Happy Birthday MJ! I've had a rough few years physically and I'm not where I would like to be. What I can say though, is that your books and this forum, help me see light at the end of the tunnel. You deserve every positive you have in your life and more sir!

    Is it good to start a business with a bf/gf?

    MINDSET 
    Before I start I am not speaking from a place of experience but just wanted to add my 2 cents for what it's worth. Actually getting married doesn't cost a great deal, having a big ceremony with "extras" is what costs, so I'd look deeper into that. To me that seems like a strange reason to...

    I started a business and now I'm doubting it

    HOT! 
    I posted a thread about a week ago now asking for some direction as i felt like the op. I was very kindly given great advice by people in that thread and they gave me a more focused view. I have sympathy for the op because he has made the same mistake I did by looking at the revenue compared to...

    Applying FastLane Principles to Finding Love?

    PEOPLE HOT! 
    I don't know if you will find this information useful, every little helps though right? In terms of fastlane principles mixed in with a little @Andy Black You are probably tuned into WII FM. (Whats In It For Me) Find out what the market wants and become those things. It's hard to give advice...

    STEP ONE - ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS

    Emotional eater over here. It is linked to stress. My stress levels rise and so DID my intake of carb loaded foods. I added a monstrous 9 stone to my frame in a little under 3 years. Today, after months of studying diet and how different foods affect different parts of you, I am sailing slowly...

    I don't know whether the way you wrote that was intended to touch a nerve, but it did haha! At first it put me on the defensive. It's more because you sound like a problem finder rather than a problem solver in your post, but I'm sure you meant well. My initial thought was can Richard Branson...

    I'd like to start by saying I was hesitant to post this thread because I see a lot of posts about people who just come to the forum to ask people to make decisions for them. I have to say though it was definitely the right choice. Every comment has been valuable. Thank you for that incredible...

    The first one when I was 17 was a franchise of a property maintenance company. I got it at a discounted rate as I was an employee and I didn't know anything and it all went well at first until they started telling me to add extra services and I had no choice because it was in the contract etc...

    So are you saying it is hard to make that sort of business a fastlane business unless you have some very unique offering and blaze your own trail in the market? Again good tips and advice. I didn't think too much about the different types of niche inside the market. Thank you

    HOT! 
    Yeah, I've been surprised by the quality of advice I have already received. I am already working on that. The purpose of that mentor is to surround myself with like minded people and to observe. I honestly struggle to find anyone who even thinks remotely like me. This forum is the only place I...

    Thanks for the tip. I see it as a good thing because if for example the guy points out something that he thinks does not make sense, first he will explain it in an in-depth and logical way. "so I hear". Then allow me to debate with him about it. I think the whole point of the process is so he...

    Thank you for getting back to me on that. I appreciate what you taking that time to respond. If you haven't already take a look at the image that ProcessPro attached. He has essentially created a checklist against numerous points in Unscripted which is very helpful for someone like me who tries...
