Listened to it at least 4 times, this and TMF are my goto Audibles while commuting. I get something more out of it every time.

I've read Unscripted . I liked it, but I feel that TMF had a much bigger impact on me personally - not surprising, given the long gap between my reading of the two books and the different stage of life that I'm in now compared to then. The parts I liked most were the parts where MJ clarified certain things that he felt he'd over-simplified in TMF - which was valuable, as sometimes it's easy to get sucked into a certain way of thinking and not to question that, which is always dangerous (even if it's from people you respect and admire).

Also, his utter annihilation of the irritatingly ubiquitous ""Mexican Fisherman"" story was brilliant.

I read UNSCRIPTED . I liked TMF better but UNSCRIPTED was nice also. Sometimes it's a little bit hard to swallow that you've dedicated so much time to slowlane stuff (and, in my case, "have" to dedicate again - don't really want to throw up 10 years of studying for 2 "small" remaining years). But of course it's a mind opening book. I was so happy to know there was another way, because I was so depressed after reading so much slowlane books (Money from T. Robins, particularly). Thank you.
I’m so glad I found this before slowlane books. #puke

Unscripted is great!! More complete and detailed than TMF .

I will however always have a special love for TMF because it was the one that opened my eyes - I hadn't read anything like that before - but I will keep checking back Unscripted , since it includes more topics to be taken into account while starting a business.

Thank you MJ! Great work!

I have The Unscripted audiobook and ebook (just like for The Millionaire Fastlane , which I've gifted to friends). Great ideas. It's not about the money, it's about having control over your own life.

Just finish the book and i want to read it again. It's absolutly mind-blowing, NOW it's my turn to take action and to not be a "wantentrepreneur". I have all the tools i need to start so let's go (i can adjust along my journey).

By the way i just want to adress a huge thanks to MJ.

finished it twice. I have the audio too and was expecting to hear MJ's voice, but the message is what matters. Love this book as much as Fastlane.

I had assumed it was a licensing deal, but I notice that they are actually selling the US printing in Thailand.

TMF has done well in Thai and Unscripted is undergoing translation now in Thai...

As for who is importing them, I'm not sure.

For those who are married give it a try. With the Mrs...reading together was a way to talk about the values and goals in our life.

Awesome to hear you and the wife are on the same page!

It's the most important book I've read in my life and I've read quite a few in the personal development space.

Yes! Goal achieved!

Who is the marketing god who buys up small ecommerce businesses and turn them into money machines a half year later? Can i read his story on this forum?

That was not a forum thread, it was a story told to me. Also @DaveC does a lot of this ... buys underutilized web properties and add value to them.

This book has been literally life changing. I recommended it to my business partner and we are now modeling our business after the commandments in this book. We now have a clear value strategy with the goal of one day cashing out to become UNSCRIPTED .

Yes! Goal achieved!

Hands down the best book I have ever read.

Yes! Goal achieved!

One of 6 most valuable books in my entire life

Yes! Goal achieved!

Value array and attributes. Nice framework

Those few chapters are worth billions. Hope people don't miss it, cuz it is in toward the end.

It's absolutly mind-blowing,

Yes! Goal achieved!

;)

And YES! The time has come! I have read UNSCRIPTED !

Not devoured, digested and ehem yes that :blush:, but read it.

And this is why I have questions that need answers.

MJ I loved both of your books and I will need to reread them in the (not so far) future. Maybe it is that I have a low IQ :)cool:), but I think that in this way a 2nd read with notes and everything will act as an extra push, DURING the creation, the act and the process towards Unscripting and indicating to the Fastlane.

Thank you very much, you MJ in person, as well as everybody in this forum, for contributing and adding some small, some bigger bits in the forum and "helping" in a way MJ to realize his dream.

IMO everyone here with a positive and growth mindset is another "cog" to a machine that pushes all of us forward, towards realizing our personal goals, wealth especially, whether it is in monetary terms, in terms of time or FUs to your ex-bosses.

I just finished reading the Kindle version of UNSCRIPTED .

I'm glad I discovered TMF and UNSCRIPTED at such a critical point in my career and life.

Very grateful to my mentor for recommending these books...

And a million thanks to @MJ DeMarco for writing the books and hosting this supportive community.
