    What would be some good ways going about making an E-Commerce website?

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE 
    I am familiar with Django (I prefer Flask) and you are either action faking because you're scared to work and learn in the most important part of business (sales and marketing) or you want to convince yourself you're driving in the Fastlane when you haven't even left your house. I have over 10...

    I am 16 with nothing and Lost

    INTRO 
    One thing every entrepreneur should strive to be exceptional at is copywriting. Unlike many other skills which are hit or miss depending on what type of business you start, any improvement you make in your skill at copywriting will benefit you. So I would suggest reading and practicing...

    Am I in The Desert?

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Set yourself a definitive date or amount of time working on this as an eject: once you reach it with no sales or a small enough amount of sales, there's no rationalizing extra time. It's done. Move on. With that said though, I really like your product. I wouldn't buy one myself but if I went to...

    Is This MJ profile on Facebook Genuine ?

    INTRO 
    Jokes on you, that was the real MJ. If you had read his latest book, "The Only Fastlane is Crypto", you would have recognized it was actually him with a legitimate business offer. At least you know now.

    Self-Doubt? This Is Your Competition

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I agree that they complement each other, but there are going to be times when you need to get work done that you really don't feel like doing and that is where discipline outshines motivation. It's easy to do things you are motivated to do because, by definition, you want to do them. Maybe a...

    My Forex Journey

    INVESTING 
    I have said for years that one of the most valuable things for people to understand is opportunity cost and this is another great example as to why. Every second you waste pretending like you have a strategy to make unprecedented levels of returns (and maintain them) is time you could have spent...

    Friendly reminder to clean your computer. I'm typing this out from my tablet because my computer likely just died due in large part to negligence. Fun timing.

    Self-Doubt? This Is Your Competition

    HOT! MINDSET 
    A perfect illustration for why you should expect a Fastlane journey to be challenging. For all (or nearly all) of the starting group to succeed, the barrier to entry would have to be 1 day of coding. That would be like the business equivalent of receiving $1m for filing for an LLC. This could...

    240 is a magical number that can print money for you for a lifetime. Or you can ignore it and lose a fortune

    MINDSET 
    I considered it but I thought it wouldn't be that valuable since it's so easy to do. Do you think it would provide enough value?

    Do you work weekends?

    EXECUTION 
    My stance on working on my own business is that there are 7 days in the week and they are all the same. However, I take mental breaks when needed.

    Has MJs thoughts changed on outsourcing?

    WEB DESIGN 
    I'm glad you found value in my response, however the disrespect you are showing in this thread is not only off-putting but completely unprofessional. Imagine if a potential client or customer saw this thread: would he or she want to do business with you? I wouldn't. Your empire is going to be...

    Has MJs thoughts changed on outsourcing?

    WEB DESIGN 
    It comes down to the cost/benefit of outsourcing. You should be striving to be a customer focused business so if outsourcing would dramatically reduce the value you provide to your customers, then you should avoid it as much as possible. If outsourcing would have marginal impact on your...

    Sadly, this makes them a valuable target for Adobe to go after.

    Stop With The Ideas

    IDEA 
    Great post. I've tested plenty of ideas for less than $50. No matter how smart or experienced a Fastlaner is who responds to a "rate my idea" thread, it is a guess. The market always gives the right answer so you might as well check with the answer key instead of asking a friend and hoping...

    Is it wise to treat myself now or should I delay it... again ? (new car question)

    MINDSET 
    1. A big house? No. 2. Travel experiences? Yes. The reason being is that your time depreciates and it mostly affects your ability to enjoy physical activities. Enjoying a day at the beach at 40 is notably better than enjoying it in your 60s. There is going to come a time when you can no longer...
