    Looking at buying a house, need advice on securing an agent

    MINDSET 
    The type of agent you're looking for is a rare breed. The average commission where I am is 5% (2.5% each b/w selller and buyer agent). Think about this...for every $10K increase/decrease in price, the agents can pocket/lose $250! That's pocket change for the agent! But makes the world of...

    Agree with all the early morning routine. How you fuel your body is essential in order to keep going during the day. I find eating good food is hard. For lunch,I usually grab the healthiest choice at the food court only to find out the salt/sugar content is too high. To avoid, this I do meals...

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    You are at peace with who you are. You are not seeking validation from others, including the business owners you are contacting. You give yourself permission to be your true self...a guy who only wants to solve the pains of others, with zero attachment to personal gain. When you approach them...

    Any LOW carbers around here? What kind of homemade snacks are you making?

    If you ever crave pasta or some type of noodle, check out Shirataki noodles which is made from an asian root plant. They don't taste the same as the "real" pasta but has no calories and zero net carbs! (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shirataki_noodles). They are not cheap and has a short shelf...

    [Free Giveaway] The Miracle Morning, by Hal Elrod

    BOOKS 
    For years I have always wonder how much my life would change if I got up really early and workout. This will allow me 1) to get my workout out of the way (I workout 5x a week at around 9pm) and 2) give me more time later during the day to push for my fastlane project. I tried it a few times and...

    Selling shovels in a gold rush...

    MINDSET 
    Here's a great story. MJ and others have mentioned that complaints = potential business opportunities. This is a great example of “selling shovels in a gold rush”: this woman saw an opportunity by hearing a complaint: a customer told her he'd driven 2.5 hours to find the product). Took massive...

    A funny video about the real king of the jungle: the honey badger. Yes, the host is annoying... I love this video. It motivates me for some reason. Especially near the end (2:48) part where he passes out after being bitting... I believe there's a lesson here for fastlaners: focus on the end...

    I have a hard time understanding your number. Is he asking you a royalty % in exchange for his investment of $15K in your company? or equity in the company? "A 15-50% in perpetuity" sounds way toooooo much and especially when you start, you need that money to reinvest into your company. "He...
