    Youtube Channel Feedback: Money is a Spiritual Tool

    MINDSET 
    Hi Sam, I have some feedback. Context: I started stretching every morning one month ago. I found this video and stuck to it for reasons I never thought about. This routine makes my joints crack and that feels awesome. It's said that "Neurons that fire together, wire together". So, I probably...

    Welcome! I'm also a developer with a comfy job (for now) and I'm on a similar path as you. Good to hear that freelancing is going well for you. How did you find your clients? Remember that Contributing > Lurking!

    Why Influencer Marketing doesn't work

    MARKETING 
    A product is a winner when buyers pitch it to strangers for free. This is how I found TMF, and I keep spreading the word.

    It's not just a change—it's a metamorphosis. Fixed mindset? Gone. Scarcity mentality? Shattered. Consumer? Producer. This mental shift doesn't just rock your world—it detonates it, rebuilding from the ground up.

    I Just Sold My First Business. Case Study + What To Do Next?

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    Thanks for sharing your story with so much detail. Tim Ferris talks about this same point in the book The 4-hour workweek. Besides perceived value, high-end image and charging more than the competition brings two benefits: Higher pricing means selling fewer units—and thus managing fewer...

    Which job sounds better for a Fastlane long-game?

    HOT! FEEDBACK 
    I love this way of seeing it. They are paying you for learning a skill that can be used for your business. You can quit and go to option 1 if it doesn't meet your expectations. Using MJ's WADM (Weighted Average Decision Matrix) can help with factors: Experience, salary, and hours.

    Quick Intro - I'll update with photos soon

    INTRO 
    Looking back and with the things you now know: Would you do it again? So cool man. I've never been there yet. I don't want to drive you crazy with questions, but you sound like almost a local. Did you spend much time there with your fiance?

    INTRO 
    This one reminded me of the story of Musk moving Twitter servers himself. Interns one day understand that this is more about the man than not the job. Damn, so jealous. I'm a big fan of The Smiths. If I may ask, what's the deal with the restaurant in Manila?

    Swimming out to sea

    EXECUTION 
    Thanks for the context. It's good to hear that you already have clients! Have you checked Malta? You must reside 183 days a year to be considered a tax resident. At some point, I was curious about this topic and Cyprus was another option. I was in Lagos last year and loved it. Thanks for the...

    Welcome, Adam! Holy cow, you must have so many cool stories from all the different jobs you've done. How did you decide to move to San Antonio? Or maybe the right question is, why did you open your company there?

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Who are your users? Bribing people for responses will get you the responses, but I doubt the value of those. The incentives are not aligned, they only want a gift card and you want your responses to build an MVP. Find someone with a problem and help them for free. This is how you learn about...

    Swimming out to sea

    EXECUTION 
    I'm also a Software Engineer, so I'm going to play devil's advocate: Does it make sense to dig into the legal aspect of setting up a company if you don't have a product or clients? Find someone to help and then you can figure out the rest. About the tech stack, use the simplest thing that...

    30 Day Depression Routine

    Good to hear from you. Your health, both mental and physical, is your life's foundation. This means that even if you are not working directly on your business, in a way you are. Enjoy your time off the screen and your vacations. Life is about seasons.

    Comfortably Numb No More

    INTRO 
    Thanks for your kind reply. I don't want this to be misinterpreted. The perception of poverty is always deceiving. Being poor in Argentina means dying of starvation, literally. We always had food on the table and my parents gave everything to send me to university. In the Argentinean context, I...

    Comfortably Numb No More

    Hi everybody, I joined the forum 2 months ago and have tried to actively contribute after reading Andy’s advice. I’m Pablo, 33 years old, from Argentina. I moved to Amsterdam 7 years ago. Growing up, I always had an entrepreneurial itch, but over time, the fire turned into a flickering ember and...

    Mission Introduction

    INTRO 
    Welcome to the forum! I've found the book "5 dysfunctions of a team", by Patrick Lencioni, to be an invaluable resource for building teams. It's also written as a fable so it's easy and fun to read. Hope it helps! Sooner or later, we all find an urge to serve others. Friendly burn: Nothing...

    Dear diary, I'm so damn tired. Lol

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Putting a system in place worked for me. Two hours of solid work early in the morning. Then, I can do more at night if I feel like it, but those are strictly optional. It gives me consistency and peace of mind. I know I did my part and have no guilt about resting properly. One day at a time...

    Dear diary, I'm so damn tired. Lol

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    I like your energy BUT rest is also important. It's better to be extremely focused for 2 hours feeling rested than working with only 3 neurons for 6. It's a balance, it's good to work hard but be mindful that sometimes resting doesn't make you weak, it makes you smarter. Being said that, go go go!
