    Is Anyone Else Intermittent Fasting?

    NOTABLE! 
    I do. I eat at 6am, 12pm and 6pm. A certain amount of calories each meal. 99% of my meals consist of meat and veggies with a bit of carbs. This helped me lose 20 lbs of weight I gained during covid. I have 15 lbs left.

    Very Amusing Comments

    This is happening in my community as well. Rents have risen tremendously due to gentrification that's funded by our state government. Thankfully, I discovered the Fastlane and I'm fixing my situation.

    You might be in great physical shape but your mental state is quite apathetic. Your posts sounds like you're very dark place right now. A lack of drive is common among people with depression or loss.

    I'm not sure. However, I've never heard of a successful entrepreneur who hasn't experienced one.

    Comfortable with a lack of hunger...

    HOT! MINDSET 
    And that's the summary for the entire thread. Respectfully, you sound like those drug addicts on Skid Row who talk about getting clean but shoot up heroin the moment they get $5 in their pockets. Those junkies haven't cleaned up their habits because they haven't hit rock bottom. It's the same...

    It sounds like your "why" isn't strong enough nor have you experienced a FTE life event. Why do you want to be an entrepreneur? Surely there is something at your job or current situation you dislike. Use that a fuel for your fire.

    How many hours are enough?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Whatever it takes to get the job done. Just focus on finishing your daily goals to meet your monthly goals and your monthly goals to meet your yearly goals. There are some days I work 2 hours and others, twelve.

    On my way to get rid of my fears and instead build something big

    INTRO 
    Welcome to the forum. I'm new as well and another "shy/introverted" person. I got over my anxiety by reading and applying lessons and exercises from "The subtle Art of Not Giving a F***" by Mark Munson. I also forced myself to attend events alone and socialize with strangers. Sometimes as an...

    Working hard for 6 years and provide the financial security or find your purpose and create a business align to it which won't be as successful?

    INTRO 
    I would pick something with the highest probability of making money rather than pursuing a passion. Your passion might be different from what the market desires. Running a business that isn't scalable increases the probability you will trade time for money. Trading time for money is like...

    Newbie Fastlaner after 6 failed businesses...

    INTRO 
    And by the way, they failed because they ALL violated the CENTS model. Needless to say, MJ's book changed my life. I'm a 31-year-old living in the Southeast of the US. I currently have a 9-5 working in tech support, AirBnbing my guest bedroom after my roommate skipped town, and donating plasma...

    Have you had your "FTE"? (Or Was it an FTM?!)

    GOLD! MINDSET FTE CHAT

    I have the same addiction - for me, it's YouTube and Pinterest. I created the account because I saw your post while Googling "Action faking with social media." I've deleted the apps, dusted off my Kindle (I use it when I have downtime instead of scrolling through Pinterest), and used an app...
