    AMA - Prospecting

    MARKETING 
    Didn’t see a AMA on the topic of cold calling/Prospecting, feel free to remove if it’s there. While I haven’t built a Fastlane business - this forum & books have helped me step outside my comfort zone to generate my own income without a job, learn new skills, and so much more. Thought it was...

    8 Eyewear: From Idea, to Launch, to Growth (And Quitting the Job)

    IDEA 
    Love it, you got this Vick! EIGHT is far from over, and you have shown that you have the determination. I remember when the first time I saw MJs response to you showing signs of being in the desert of desertion, and he sounded seriously concerned that that would be the end... and yet you went...

    Kobe Bryant Dies in Helicopter Crash

    HOT! OFF-TOPIC 
    It's been tough to get over. It doesn't feel the same as when a family member dies, but man it is painful. He's been such an incredible guy. I live in the area now and you can feel the pain. I swear, that Sunday felt so gloomy here, it was unbelievable. Has to be one of the more heartbreaking...

    Thought Experiment: WWYD in Your Post Powerball Euphoria?

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    This is crazy, because it's EXACTLY what I thought. Making a major movie (or, even better - a blockbuster series) would be incredible. The impact that movies have on people, especially kids, would be an amazing feeling that you created. I'd probably find a way to purchase the Cincinnati Bengals...

    The New Forum Format

    It's awesome. I've always loved the forum personally, but I do like seeing more than 50 posts. However, my favorite addition BY FAR is the ability to see who the thread was created by, and who responded last. Really helps to find quality content much faster.

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Got it on Audible, was every bit as amazing as I thought it would be. I think my favorite takeaway is how consistently you drill into our brains how important it to realize that: 1. Comparing yourself to others is such a massive waste of time, because there is always someone better than you...

    HOT! CHAT 
    Not even smaller cities? We just moved to Irvine, CA a few weeks ago, and I already hate it. Way too many people here with a need for speed and just HAVE to be riding right on your bumper to get where they go to go 2 seconds faster. But cities like Cincinnati? Love it.

    HOT! CHAT 
    This is so sad. I've been hearing a lot recently how the guy looks noticeably heavier than usual. Food addiction is a serious problem, and it's crazy how much control it can have over our lives. Just yesterday I was fantastic on my daily meal plan, and was proud of how I was managing myself...

    What I'd do if I was 18

    MINDSET 
    18 and already in these forums? That's excellent. Shows a growth mindset at a young age. If you haven't already, your first two investments should be MJ's books: The Millionaire Fastlane & Unscripted. I'm not sure how different the situation is in India, but my first step would be to get any...

    How to break the cycle of "Hard times➡️Discipline➡️Good Times➡️Laziness➡️Hard Times"?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    You can only sustain discipline for one day? Good luck. To me, it sounds like you don't have a plan in place to take repeated action daily towards your goals. If you don't have a path, then discipline won't matter. Wandering through the days will easily reinforce lazy habits, since you don't...

    How to break the cycle of "Hard times➡️Discipline➡️Good Times➡️Laziness➡️Hard Times"?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    You can read books, but at the end of the day, the answer lies in your question. DISCIPLINE is how you break the cycle. In general, people quit because things get difficult. Laziness is a sign of defeat more often than not, and a return to the comfort zone. There is no magic answer to...

    Unpopular Opinion: "Give Value for Free" is Bullshit More Often Than Not

    NOTABLE! MINDSET FTE 
    Like nearly everything in life, it depends on the situation. Sure, for some businesses it might not be the best option, but I feel that the free value in the beginning is a wise decision.

    Think Big, and Then Think Bigger Than That.

    GOLD! 
    Thanks! I definitely know that changes in my mindset are much needed, but I don't want to just only focus on that, as I feel it could just be making excuses for not actually starting on building businesses. In honor of this thread, I've been thinking about what truly big goals I'd love to have...

    Hey! .... You tryin' to change your life today?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I'll call myself out on this one, per the "Think big" thread: Throughout the whole thread, despite me wanting to reach these levels in my own journey, has been saying things like: "You haven't even started" "I have no clue where to even look for ideas that will reach these levels" "Maybe you...

    Think Big, and Then Think Bigger Than That.

    GOLD! 
    I'd love to get in on this thread, but feel like I'd be attempting to punch way above my weight. This thread has helped me to realize that I need to focus on problems, and then think BIG when it comes to solving. How can I give the absolute MOST value. Also makes me more aware that I need to...

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Thank you for this post @MJ DeMarco Question: Do you recommend starting off by applying this to multiple areas of your life, such as exercising, finding business ideas, and job hunting? Or is it better to start with the focus on ONE aspect that you deem most important?

    How do you stop hating yourself?

    Wow, @404profound. I definitely can resonate with some things you have posted first off, so thank you for being open. When things like this are asked, you aren't the only one receiving help. And @MidwestLandlord and others have dropped some extremely valuable insight. I think a lot of people...

    How to become a leader?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    The book Extreme Ownership is fantastic, I HIGHLY recommend it. And I promise, Jocko won't just try to talk like a hard a$$ the whole time. He talks about how the lessons he learned in the military transfer over to what he sees in everyday life, and all of them are applicable. Good share...
