    Progress Thread // Accountability

    IDEA 
    Exactly! It's a relief to hear others have similar opinions on this. I think what's making him famous is people's insecurities. Get a bunch of teens who are going through puberty, get them on this journey of self-improvement and set it up in a way that, everyone else not going through the same...

    Progress Thread // Accountability

    IDEA 
    Thanks for your replies guys! Yep, will try to keep a routine out of it. Still haven't figured this one out, that's the point of this thread. I guess like poking the cat and waiting for a meow, so to speak. Yes, absolutely, and not only for YouTube per se. I fell into the trap of following...

    Progress Thread // Accountability

    IDEA 
    I have been hesitant to start a progress thread on this forum for a while now. But after beating around the bush for some time, I decided to commit and go in (Thank you @Spenny for the motivation :) ) My Experiences and what I have learned so far: I joined the forum in January, posted the...

    Building a billion dollar enterprise

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    This speaks to me on so many different levels, thank you for pointing it @Envision! I always liked studying and going to school (cue the "Nerd!" remarks) but that's where I feel the most fulfilled. Ok, I now I know that school teaches you more to consume, rather then to become a producer. And...

    Its been one year of FLF for me. This forum will change your life and Ill prove it.

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Thank you for the post @Envision! Truly an inspiring read! Your post really shows how, you could read a hundred and one different books, or try a million other *hot* trends, but it all boils down to you. You, your thoughts, your beliefs, are the major barriers to success. True, something in...

    I need help and feedback

    FEEDBACK 
    You're thinking big, which is very good, especially at such a young age. Keep going and you'll be amazed by the results. Just several things tho... Why a bakery/cafe? Who will you help by opening that bakery? Is opening a bakery really the only way you can help them? With your age and...

    Can I survive 79 days HARD challenge?

    HOT! MINDSET HEALTH 
    I changed how I view things. Before, I used to count the days on a calendar, marking down how far I've come from a relapse. 34, 35, 36, 0, 1, 2, ... Seeing that 0 frustrated me so much, that I end up relapsing again within the week is over. I sometimes even got up to 200+ days and end up...

    I need help and feedback

    FEEDBACK 
    Starting out, you should focus on one thing. Make it so powerful, that you obsess over it night and day. The 'different companies' will fall behind that one thing, meaning, your brain will naturally think up of different solutions to further your cause. Think of it this way: You want to be...

    Conquering depression

    HOT! MINDSET 
    This right here is gold. I'm putting it up my wall hahaha. Also it's amazing what a structured routine can do to you isn't it? Without a routine, I just ended up procrastinating and relapsing back into old habits. I was 'too busy' to do the work. But boy, what superpowers you can gain from...

    How to escape a circle of procrastination

    MINDSET 
    It seems like you were in a similar situation as I was. I was jumping from one hot thing to another, thinking I was making big progress, and that cash will come rolling in and I can give everyone the middle finger. It was only I took a step back and realized what all my efforts resulted into...

    Can I survive 79 days HARD challenge?

    HOT! MINDSET HEALTH 
    You got this! Realize that, even if you set yourself that goal of Hard Challenge, there will be times when the going gets tough (hence the name! ) Remember this ^^^. Whenever I set myself on difficult goals or challenges, I used to beat myself up for relapsing just a single day out of a...

    I Think I'm Caught In A Bad Hook

    MINDSET SOCIAL MEDIA 
    I think this right here is the essence of your post. If you don't love your work (not your passion!) then you'll start finding excuses not to work. Reconnect with your why. Why did you start freelance writing? Realize that, if the entertainment niche is popping off and that's where the money...

    Do you guys feel envious of those who come from same background as you and are more successful than you?

    MINDSET 
    Thank you for the post @SyedMSawaid! I was in a difficult mental rut because of some personal problems at work. Basically I was jealous. Jealous of the recognition others have, jealous of the benefits others have, just an overwhelming sense of envy. Social media doesn't help either. But your...

    Fastlane ideas are very hard to find

    IDEA 
    I was in a very similar situation to you. What helped for me was setting down some ground rules. WHO are you helping? And WHY are you helping them? (Thanks @Andy Black ) Then ideas start flowing. No process on the face of this planet will tell you exactly what YOU need to do. YOU need to...

    Lots to take in from this one, let's see: This question is a challenging one... I guess this is the specific problem / specific person scenario Tony talked about. I think I'll focus on people with a specific problem, specifically, want good results but don't know where to start (hence why I...

    So basically, stop thinking about the what (build an app) and how (programming languages) but who (others who are similar in my situation) and why (overall kindness to others, since I've already been there so I could help ease the situation for them). This could be achieved by fixating a...

    Thanks for the reply @Andy Black. So, back to the drawing board. What I'm getting here is that I'm too focused on building or creating. It's better if I start interacting more, online (like this forum) or in person. Then let the people I interact with decide where to go. So instead of focusing...

    My Story / Accountability

    QUESTION INTRO 
    Very interesting to read your story here, as we're both kind of in the same situation! (I'm 20 years old and still struggling on where to start) I would highly recommend the Gold Posts in the forum, especially Andy Black's. Basically, start dropping some replies here and there, sharing how you...

    First of all, thanks for the replies, I really appreciate it! Now I'll write out my thoughts (I apologize if it's lengthy, boring or not the place for it, just want to document what I took from the feedback) This is valuable right here, sort of like reverse engineering a problem. So, right now...

    What I'm currently struggling with is that I don't know how I can provide value with what I already know. I also tend to change my short term goals frequently, depending on what content I'm consuming or what the guys on the web say is hot right now (I've since learned NOT to do this). In fact, I...
