Hi Gesa, I am from Germany as well and it is nice to meet other creative people from Germany who want to hit the Fastlane. I love your idea with the jewellery and also that you provide videos on skillshare. How are you doing now? Greetings, Madlen www.madlenziege.com

Yes, these skills are also which I learned for myself. I think this is a good foundation to start a successful business. What is your third business about?

Yes, crazy! Even if you would have taken this path and would have become a professor what would your work look like? Crazy pressure on your shoulders, hiring people, endless teaching hours, bureaucracy and almost no time for research - at least from what I have seen... Now, I have time to read...

Thanks :) My book will be published in English next summer - let me know and I will send you a copy :) Yeah, I became a biologist because I just love to study nature but academia seems to me just like a giant monster that over time sucks your passion away and makes you believe you cannot...

Hey Dan, thanks for your answer. I am thinking about children's book versions out of my existing book. My initial idea was a children's book about a town and a land rabbit that talk about their different life styles based on my research :) Because of this idea I went to a science slam and was...

Hey, thanks for your comment. I am on my way now and work through the book. Currently working on a USP for my business :)

Dear Fastlaners, I am currently working on my USP for my business. So far I only have one product which is a book about Communication in Nature. The book was initiated by an agency for authors who found my PhD topic (rabbits in the city) interesting. I therefore wrote that book without any...

Yeah,its on my bucket list for the next days to find a solution that fits my needs. Thanks for your help. I am still blown away by this new but yet totally logical view on how not to create business with "what you love" - also kind of a relief as I love drawing and playing Irish music but do...

Thanks for your opinion.

Thanks for your advice - I am totally open for it :) So you would let print them somewhere first and then sell it over your own website also shipping yourself? I am reading now the section of the book where MJ says do not do what you love. It really hit me as this was always the first advice...

Guess we cannot educate enough that we have to reconnect with nature :) Good questions, to be honest I have no idea yet. A shirt with a good quality I would say 25-30 Euro per sale?

Yes, that sounds like a good idea. It will definitely be around nature and its diversity, beauty, inspiration... Yes, I want to stay out of the selling process as much as possible as I want also to sell worldwide. Would be awesome if you can ask your friends. Yeah, I like the idea with the...

Great, thanks for your advice. Yes, I also see it often with the labels for environmental friendly paper - most of them are worth nothing... Nice design, I like it a lot. I thought of printing my pictures with a few words that capture the essence of this animal/plant in a funny way. I...

Hey, thank you! It is nice to get feedback from this community :) Especially since Peter Wohlleben published his books about Forests people want to learn more about Nature and reconnect. I always loved to talk about Biology and now getting feedback from my readers that I opened up new views on...

Hey MJ, thanks for replying. It is an honour to meet you!
