Hey. It's Jim here - and I'm back, great to meet you.

2 nights ago I had a knife pulled on me and was robbed while trying to enjoy a succulent chicken kebab. It feels crazy to even write that.

Before this, my life has slowly been slipping from one of unlimited potential ready to blossom to mediocrity and over-consumption. Porn addiction, mobile addiction, and a tendency to drink too much when out with friends. It's time to change - I won't let myself, those who matter to me, and my future family down any longer.

I've read TMFL and loved it. It's time to take action and become a producer. My over-consumption would be my greatest downfall and it's time to change that.

I'm so excited to share my journey with you all, tackling my problems, starting a business and hopefully getting to know some of you fastlaners whether you've done it or are doing it.

I'd love to engage with you all! Let's chat and grow together.

Gratefully,
JimIsBackSoon
