Hi to honourable forum!
My name is Michał, 28 yrs, I was born and live in Łódź, central Poland.
I decided to join the forum as The Millionaire Fastline opened my eyes to many topics I previously avoided or I was afraid to say out loud. Thanks to this book I became conscious that what I am doing with my life is typical and well-described Slowlane.
Currently, I am team lead in international outsourcing company, providing services for Canadian branch of a mining company. Although it is not my business, alike many of you I suffer from unstable working hours, poor work-life balance, ups and downs, lack of control over some topics. For you to know that, as per Polish conditions it is not bad position, I leading the team, got my subordinates to for whom I am small boss and I am quite okay paid, however a deal 5-to-2 does not sound to me like a life-bargain and now I am still under influence of MJ DeMarco's words that were game-changers and guided me here
My current situation is that I do not own a business to develop but I consider two options where I can start easily with help of family and few my ideas. What is more, it didn't come easy but I can say I am quite self-conscious, aware of my character, my personal pros and cons, my blocking points and motivators. It took me some time and also some trainings (like MBTI) to admit who I am, how I react, what is my attitude.
I know my issue is that I got burnt quickly when I do not see the results and I am polygamic in business - I developed many silly ideas and I gave up as immediate success is my drag. The funny fact is that it wasn't like this before - I was able either to work or practice sport where results was null or very small. Second thing is that I learn really quickly and easily basics until semi-advanced of any topic but it is difficult for me to master any skill. This is blessing and curse at the same time. So I come to interact with you guys to constantly excite my internal fire and achieve my dream life.
My background is that I graduated Business and Management in French and Mechanical Engineering in English language. Mechanics and technics were always in my scope of interest. Thus my first professional step was in R&D dept. in international electric company where I had started as intern and afterwards was given temporary contract.
However during my stay in France I saw a drone for the first time, doing some aerial footage of beach event and later on I imported this idea to Poland. In a result, I founded my startup, designed and constructed my hexacopter and provided services of aerial photography and filming. Although I had a passion that time, due to lack of control over business, poor marketing and little knowledge I had to close it officially but even nowadays I do some aerial jobs thanks to word of mouth.
Next on my was was international sports merchandise company for which I was hired as logistic department manager, after some time adding to that a role of maintenance team manager, which I created after I managed a project of installation of a packing machine in the warehouse. I worked 3 years there and moved to where I am now.
If you are still not "TL;DR", I look forward to interact with you in the threads that I already found interesting to me. Maybe I will be able to help somewhere. Plausibly, I will start few mine as I need some opinions / support/ guidances.
I always remain open for your sincere feedback and discussions, either here or on Meets / Whatsup etc
Thank you and hello once again!
