In my short time on this forum, I've read lots of great threads and been exposed to viewpoints of many people, all who are at different points in their fastlane journeys. However, one that that always strikes me as odd, is seeing someone talk about how they're on The Sidewalk, yet they're unwilling to accept low-paying (or any) job to fuel their fastlane dreams. Many people justify this by saying things like, "That's slowlane thinking, that's not for me," while remaining unemployed or something.
I've also known/know many people who operate the same way in real life. Maybe not because they are trying to get on the fastlane, but because they simply feel they're too good to do certain things and that the world doesn't apply to them.
I'm all for not settling and all that, and I'm certainly not trying to point fingers at anyone, but I'm curious to hear other, more successful peoples' thoughts on this subject. I always found it difficult to be entitled and/or picky when getting anything was better than having nothing.
Do you think this mentality is actually a hindrance to people's fastlane journey?
