    Harsh Reality vs Pursuing Your Dreams

    NOTABLE! HOT! MINDSET 
    I've got a very goal-based approach to this. If your goal was simply 'succeed in the bodybuilding industry' and you knew you had a better 'chance', or less resistance, selling products to bodybuilders then that would be a legitimate way to do it. If, like Arnold, your goal was specifically to...

    Losers vs Winners

    MINDSET 
    Must admit this doesn't make a lot of sense to me. If an entrepreneur hops from one thing to another and never finishes anything, surely they won't finish any products and they'll have nothing to sell? They won't finish their website and they'll have nothing to sell that product on. They're only...

    Losers vs Winners

    MINDSET 
    Oh the ten year plan thing? Yeah, that's great, I did that recently. I hadn't yet read MJ's work when I made the old list, but looking back I guess it was something of a 10-year plan. Nowadays I do have my 10, 5 and 1-year plan and I'm excited to see how the 1-year plan will go.

    Uncertainty is not danger

    MINDSET 
    Yeah. Movies can be a source of dangerous Slowlane delusions, but they can also come in handy. Think of Indiana Jones or someone jumping in to fight the bad guys. The heroes often jump in without a complete plan and fight anyway. It's normally the bad guys who have some complicated 'evil plan'...

    Losers vs Winners

    MINDSET 
    I haven't looked much at Richard Branson over the years so I won't argue about what he's doing. However, I don't see how this contradicts the 'Losers vs Winners' paradigm. If Richard Branson has started thinking short-term, then in that respect at least, he's a Loser after all. Question is, did...

    Losers vs Winners

    MINDSET 
    I actually made another list, too. Early on in my journey I listed my perfect day, and on the left side I put what I was currently doing. Needless to say, there was a big difference. In my perfect day I woke up in a big bed at home, and didn't 'have' to go to work because I could work from home...

    Uncertainty is not danger

    MINDSET 
    'How are you going to do this?' @Mohammed ED-DAHB That's another Slowlane delusion, sure. Lots of people seem to think that the only way to embark on some big project is to have every step planned out in advance, a whole 'Script', if you will. There's a reason it's called 'Unscripted'. The...

    Uncertainty is not danger

    MINDSET 
    Someone I know from work had a rabbit as a pet. Whenever he fed this rabbit, it would go to the same place to eat each time. As a rabbit-instinct, this makes sense. The rabbit knows it's 'safe' to eat in that particular place and hey, why bother finding anywhere else to eat? That'd be...

    Losers vs Winners

    MINDSET 
    That's what happened to me! I don't want to be a sucker who reads a lot of books, takes a lot of notes, and then doesn't implement what they learned. With the porn thing, I took a look at what I was doing and faced the fact that it fit the 'escapism' category and was a 'Loser' behaviour. In some...

    Losers vs Winners

    MINDSET 
    @Stargazer Eh? I'm honestly curious about which 'Loser' behaviours Richard Branson is doing. Is he thinking small? Only thinking short-term? Does he start projects but never finish them? It's difficult to see how someone could meaningfully be a success doing any of the behaviours in the Loser list.

    Disciplined Lifestyle - No Pornography, Replacing Bad Habits

    EXECUTION 
    I like to think of porn as a bit like Xerxes in 300. Unlike cruel reality that demands that you improve, porn requires only... that you kneel. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jv_prthB4w4

    Uncertainty is not danger

    MINDSET 
    This is a distinction I've noticed a lot of Scripted people seem to miss; uncertainty is not the same thing as danger. Often when Scripted people talk about 'risk' or 'danger' or implore you to 'play it safe' they're not really talking about danger, they're talking about uncertainty. Normally I...

    Harsh Reality vs Pursuing Your Dreams

    NOTABLE! HOT! MINDSET 
    I try to avoid thinking about 'the odds'. Let's say I want to become a world-famous bodybuilder like Arnold Schwarzenegger. (I don't, but whatever). When Arnold was young, people rightly told him that there was no money in bodybuilding. Lots of people probably told him the 'chances' of reaching...

    Disciplined Lifestyle - No Pornography, Replacing Bad Habits

    EXECUTION 
    The first three days were the hardest, and I did have a relapse at some point (not during the six-month streak, though). I remember sitting there, trying to quit porn, and looking at my browser icon, realizing what it represented, and just how easy it would be to use porn, any moment I chose. A...

    Holy shit is this real life?!

    HOT! 
    By the way, if you want more non-Slowlane material you might like The Unchained Man by Caleb Jones. He's a hero of mine and I've read his blog for years. He describes in the book how he basically realized how hollow the Slowlane is when he was a little kid.

    Hello

    INTRO 
    Hi Joe, I'm 37 myself so I think I might have some things to learn from you. I've just started being able to save money in my paycheque (£500 each month), so I'm interested in what I can do with it... once I've reached my next goal of £18,000 of savings, that is. Like you, I'm here because the...

    How to keep your UNSCRIPTED Mindset when surrounded with MEDIOCRE People

    I have the same problem! Most of the reason I'm on this forum is because I can't talk about Unscripted life with my friends, family or co-workers. The good news is that the internet lets you pick your company in a way. Make a point of subscribing to YouTube channels that have an unscripted...

    Disciplined Lifestyle - No Pornography, Replacing Bad Habits

    EXECUTION 
    I've been off porn for more than six months now myself (I'm 37, though, rather different). Like you, I quit when I took a long, sober look at porn and realized that it's a form of escapism. (Escapism vs reality is one of my big ideas in my Losers vs Winners post on this forum.) I think I started...
