I LOVE the one word title. I sooo detest scripts, blueprints, and step-by-step instructions. The title should really resonate with the people you want to attract.

The book looks awesome!

I already had my credit card :moneybag: handy though and am disappointed it's not out yet today;(. Building up the tension really well MJ.

PS. I need to get used to the new forum but it looks more distinguished.

The only other time in my life I have been excited for a book to be released was when King started up again on The Dark Tower. But that's nothing compared to this. What a funny feeling :rofl:

Dumb question: Whether (and when) book would be released in my country (Poland) depends only on our local publishers?

Ladies and gentlemen,

After a long writing process, I'm happy to say that my next book will be tentatively released on May 23rd, 2017. This is a soft annoucement.

Official pre-order and pre-release announcements will come several months before.

Writing this book was very difficult for me because I had to write it for two very different audiences: 1) A TMF reader already familiar with "Fastlane" and 2) A reader unfamiliar with TMF . This made the book about 20% larger than I wanted (it's over 400 pages).

UNSCRIPTED advances and expands on my first book, the Millionaire Fastlane . It takes a holistic, life approach toward this beautiful thing we call entrepreneurship. UNSCRIPTED is not about creating a career-- it's about creating a unique existence. It's not about building a business-- it's about building a life.

I've listened to TMF audiobook at least 20 times since I purchased it. I sought to master that mindset and the philosophies and teachings it contained so I knew it like the back of my hand. That book has been the single biggest contributing factor to the change I've made in life (short of having a kid). I even bought my wife a copy of the book.
"Unscripted " already sounds fantastic and the design is spot on. Great work. I can't wait to get my hands on it.

Going to order physical copies of both books when this one comes out. Read TMF on Kindle, but need a physical trophy in my library.

MJ Looks great!

I know it might be fairly difficult and time consuming, but are you able to offer direct sales with signatures to members?

I buy most of my books in e-book format now, and if this if offered that way I will do the same. However, I would love to read a physical version, having a signature would make it all that much more special.

No worries man, I thought he made some interesting points, was glad to hear it.


I don't know, Bill Gates wasn't exactly a great looking baby, but he did ok:

Looking forward to reading the book, MJ. The stuff you seem to focus on in it is exactly what I'm struggling with right now - old thoughts about myself, my life, etc., that are holding me back.

Are you going to actually talk to me this time or just run away again!?

Run away. I'm an introvert. I get threatened by people who intimidate me.

Are you doing signed copies delivered with roses and white wine again

I plan on hand delivering to you in my unitard thong. :rofl:

How about a pre-release for those on the inside?

Most likely will be the case as we move closer.

umb question: Whether (and when) book would be released in my country (Poland) depends only on our local publishers?

Depends on international distribution. I think worse case, you'll be able to buy it at Amazon UK, or the international book store BookDepository.

but are you able to offer direct sales with signatures to members?

Yes, that will probably be pre-release.

You know MJ has a good brand when I didn't even look at the cover until I saw people here arguing about it. Never occurred to me to look at the package, because I'm amped to tear it open and find out what's inside.

Tear open the book. Not an unitard thong.

I like MJ's work, but if he starts walking around in a thong talking about how he's the Messiah, I'm out.

...wait, I get to keep the thong too right?


If no, what if I wore mine and we just did an exchange?

Stupid question I'm about to ask but where did you get your picture taken? I wanna write a book but I need to know what's the best way to take a professional looking picture.

Congrats on your new book, MJ!
I'd like to pre-order a pallet full of them so you don't have to place it in your garage again! :rofl:

The title of the book is perfect.

Reminds me of when I used to want to be a filmmaker and hated the idea of scripts.. (I preferred shot lists)

When I refused to write a script in my film class back in highschool because it wasn't the way I liked to work, my teacher called me extremely arrogant and lazy. This shows him, haha!

All jokes aside, can't wait to pre-order it, extremely excited for the value I know this book will provide. Thanks MJ!
