    How bad is California really?

    HOT! 
    It's really going to depend on what you like and what your priorities are. If you can, take a couple weeks and travel around to see different areas. Have you started your business already? Is there a niche that would be best served in a certain area? MJ's Weighted Average Decision Matrix is...

    How bad is California really?

    HOT! 
    I live in LA, but I've traveled all over the state. Here are my thoughts: California is an incredibly beautiful (at least on the coast, the interior is pretty depressing) expensive place (at least on the coast). The most annoying tax, which I'm dealing with right now actually, is the 800...

    Well, the good news is that I have finished the first draft a week earlier than expected. The only downside is that the first draft is just a bit over 25,000 words. I'm going to have to write an "in-between" draft to fill in some of the holes and flesh out the story. But now, it's time for a...

    14 y/o Sells Goat For Profit, What's Your Excuse?

    MINDSET 
    I don't know why, but this thread title made me laugh so hard. The next time I hear someone whining, I'm just going to say "A 14 year just sold a goat, bro. What's your excuse?" Props to your brother on his hustle. And to you for being a good role modle.

    20,000 words in. I've been using the screenplay as an outline and I'm about 3/4 of the way through. The novel is definitely very "talky" right now. Some chapters are just pages and pages of dialogue. I've been doing scripts for so long, I'm going to have to regain my "regular prose" muscles...

    1 on 1 Phone Call With Jack Edwards UPDATE!!

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Just did a 1 hour call with Jack. It wasn't just worth every penny, it was worth a HUNDRED TIMES THAT. Easily. I've been floundering on getting this project off the ground and now I have an actionable framework that I can start working on immediately. If you're looking for insight from a...

    Thinking About Hiring a Coach? Think again!

    REAL ESTATE 
    Man, that kind of stuff really bothers me. I've known a few people selling their "coaching" services in areas in which they had absolutely no experience. A morbidly obese health coach, a philandering relationship coach, an acting coach with no credits...and so on. What's especially nauseating...

    Your Entrepreneurial "Come to Jesus" Moment? (FTE!)

    NOTABLE! MINDSET FTE 
    Mine was looking at my Social Security statement. Seeing how much (or in my case, how little) I made in 12 years of working was eye-opening.

    Do you own a Mac, but dick around when you should be work?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Freedom is great. Instead of blocking certain websites, it just disables your network connection. It makes it irritating enough to turn off (you have to force quit and restart your computer) that you won't be tempted to use the internet. I'm a writer, so it definitely helps me stay focused.

    Hi everybody!

    Hey Fastlaners, My name is Kris and I'm a comedian from LA. Though maybe that's not the best descriptor, since I'm paying my bills right now with an advertising sales job. A friend bought me a copy of TMF and it really blew me away. I've done some freelance writing in the past (a...
