    Was doing well in the Slowlane, but now I'm Fastlane, $1.1M net worth

    NOTABLE! SLOWLANE 
    Congrats! Love the unagitated way you casually dropped that you have become a millionaire. ;) I'm curious. Would be willing to answer a couple of questions? You wrote that your business is in the same industry. Does that mean personnel management, HR...? Were you the sales guy or the product...

    Self-Doubt? This Is Your Competition

    MINDSET 
    @MTFs original sentiment has really appealed to me: is your competition actually that tough? I have created my intro thread in this forum about 2y ago and ever since I have been bouncing forth and back between "I will never be able to do this (= entrepreneurship, convince customers that my...

    How to communicate value of changing to modern web development practices to boss

    I think it's great you're thinking about options to improve the business! As always you should convey the value of your suggestions. I can speak from my experience about WordPress, Next and so on. Actually, I learned WebDev the other way around than most other people. I started with the MERN...

    sellings Windows in Germany

    IDEA 
    German guy here, too. I want to answer your last question first: everything can be turned fastlane. Some ventures easier than others but all can. Regarding your idea, I think it is reasonable. Demand is likely to increase with the upcoming German law to reduce energy consumption of private...

    Entrepreneurship is a 24-7 WAY OF THINKING, ACTING and EXECUTING, and NOT something to ‘TRY’

    MINDSET 
    Great post, fastlane_dad. Thanks for this! I like this paragraph most because it illustrates that you don't need to create a crazy innovative, never-seen-before product. You 'just' need a value skew. That has been one of my major misconceptions for years. What I still struggle with, however...

    $120k in the bank and 22 years old feeling lost

    INTRO 
    Hi Financedragon, hell of an intro! You're way ahead of most user here, me included. Dude, you're only 22! Don't overthink this, I second everything the others have already posted. You already have success: keep going! It's interesting that you're doing tutoring. I considered it myself a few...

    Fastlane Success (8 figure exit!) - Now Back to the Starting Ground !!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Thanks for the detailed answer! So, most of the ideas for things to improve came by using them yourself - that makes sense! If you don't mind, I'm really interested in the product generation part: you mentioned the automotive accessory. I take it you had this accessory on your car (bought from...

    Fastlane Success (8 figure exit!) - Now Back to the Starting Ground !!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Congratulations! It's hard to imagine what struggles you must have had - and overcome - over the years! Maybe it sounds funny but I believe I would have an easier time growing and optimizing a business than getting it started. To me, the start of a business has always been the big mystery. Can...

    Is entrepreneurship something you're born with?

    MINDSET 
    This. I have no statistical evidence to back it up but I'm sure that, e.g., children of entrepreneurs are more likely to become entrepreneurs themselves. Once you 'start' (which is the toughest part - just as with everything else), I imagine you could enter a positive feedback loop: you seek...

    I start my idea today (eCommerce + POD)

    HOT! IDEA 
    I've been a long-time lurker on this forum and have been following your posts. I wish I could give you some some advice but to be honest you are way ahead of me in the entrepreneurial journey. So, I'll stick to what I can do. And that is telling you that I deeply admire your dedication and...

    Intro of 35yo project manager trying to find his way into the FL

    INTRO 
    Hi everyone, first of all I'd like to say thank you to MJ and this community! You guys are awesome, an inspiration, and - oh boy - do you make me feel inadequate! In this post I want to introduce myself. I will tell you a bit about myself how I got in contact with the Fastlane and this forum...
