Have you given up on the fastlane?

[jhlee03555]

For 5 years now, I have dreamed of becoming a multi millionaire and living in freedom. Once, I learned about entrepreneurship but it sounded too complex and difficult. Unfortunately, I didn't taken action since because of half-hearted commitments and fear of uncertainty. Soon, I gave up and my goals turned toward getting a high-paying job. Then, I read the Millionaire's Fastlane and it gave me the courage to pursue the entrepreneur route once more. Now, I am committed to take the fastlane and manifest freedom for myself and my family. I hope this forum will help me reach my dreams faster.

People from all walks of life have gone fastlane through all sorts of paths.

Getting a high-paying job and then creating a business in the industry (or taking your experience and branching out into another) is one such way.

Hell no beach.

10+ years into this shit, still not built a fastlane business, but still trying in the background

Quitting is not an option, this is my life. We'll keep trying, and trying and trying and trying and trying and trying... until I f*cking make it work.

Luckily each try gives me new lessons I can take with me to the next venture, so I'm getting closer and closer after each try.

No, but I have learned to identify the part of learning curves (and all the emotions, negative self talk, and uncertainty that come with it) that cause me to quit. I have recently been learning web design, for a multitude of reasons. My dad hired me this summer to essentially rebrand his business (I have never done this). It has been 4 days of, no joke, 7-8 hours a day learning. I have split that time fairly evenly between a web-design freelance course that tackles all the solving businesses issues (seo, google ads, prospecting, sales pitches, etc.), a Udemy course on Webflow, Figma, design, and a book on sales-funnels. This influx of information is overwhelming, and I just yesterday realized that this is typically the part where I would quit.

Given the allure of legitimate profits, I am pushing through the barrier of bad thoughts and emotions. This realization of my quick breaking point is extremely important. Typically this is where I would give up, say webdesign dosen't work, and go watch Iman Gadzhi and Alex Hormozi on youtube to action-fake. This time around I am forced to push through and figure it out. And I will.

I guess to answer the question better. I want to give up all the time. But then I push through. I identify the reasons why I am quitting or action-faking, and restructure my self-talk/momentary beliefs to let my monkey body do. Once put, Ralph Emerson Waldo, "Do the thing, and you shall have the power, but they who do not the thing have not the power." If you boil it down to do the thing, you must push through, or you are in denial. The first step is clear, everything is a trade-off, and you mustn't give up.
