    Worth noting there's an "In Need of Execution" section of the forum where folks who recognize opportunity but can't act on it share for others to pick up the torch on. Fastlane Ideas: Executioner Needed

    Top 2 Life Altering Books That Can Immediately Change Your Circumstances

    BOOKS 
    Honestly, these were two of my favorite books in the last few years. Miracle Morning (not "for entrepreneurs", just the original) really resonated with me and got me excited about mornings. I've always been the opposite of a morning person so changing this was really a cool experience for me...

    Borrowing Money to Attend 2018 Fastlane Summit

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Dude, I was making $100 per gig after basically turning on my Upwork account with zero past history. I turned it off a month later when folks were throwing more work at me than I cared to keep up with (one guy threw literally 70-80 products at me and said once I get through that he'd have a few...

    Mark Manson's "Subtle Art of Not Giving A F*ck"

    BOOKS 
    Somewhat unpopular opinion: I read this book and was bored to tears with it. Likely because it's the same material that every other typical self-help book contains but this one has an "edgy" enough title to stand out from the crowd. I admit the information was good but if you've already read a...

    The simple reality is that if you could find a way to get folks who "know what to do" to actually go ahead and "just do it" - you'd be an overnight billionaire. Lose weight - eat less. Be fitter - exercise more. Make money - work more. Be a better parent - spend more time with your kids. Be a...

    Is the Law of Attraction real or is it BS?

    MINDSET 
    I do not believe in magic. I believe in science, facts, logic and proof. If you put a person in a room and say his life depends on someone bringing him a teddy bear holding a banana - no amount of thinking really hard about it is going to produce a teddy bear holding a banana. Put that...

    I think even when we know it - it can be a struggle at times. Reminds me of @Arrabista 's talk between the difference of East and West. It's hard for one side to truly relate to the other side at times because it's just not their way of life. You can understand it and acknowledge it but the...

    If nothing else we should strive to "one person, one question, one answer". There was one question posed to the entire group of presenters that killed 30-40 minutes and effectively ended the post-summit Q&A session. I'm sure this person didn't mean for this to happen (it was a good question, and...

    Is the Law of Attraction real or is it BS?

    MINDSET 
    If you think about it, the Law of Attraction is nothing more or less than attuning yourself to the knowledge and activities and opportunities you've consciously decided are important and behaving in such a way to prioritize them. It makes total sense that the more you pay attention and behave...

    I'll throw my hat into the ring and say the same thing - 1step rocks. He's helped me quite a few times on various things over the years as well. I'd also feel certain in saying that anyone who met him this past week at the summit has zero doubts about how genuine he is and how awesome this...

    Looking for the best sales books

    MARKETING 
    Worth mentioning: There's a massive distinction between understanding sales, and getting good at it. Books are great, great resources to understand how the sales process works. The psychology of it. How pros do things differently. Technical aspects. Negotiation tactics. Why "this" works better...

    REP+ for this, by the way. I know I'm not the only one who took almost no photos and is very, very glad someone like you "stepped up" for the rest of us in that regard. You did an awesome job - thank you. (And thanks to everyone else who contributed photos to this thread as well!)

    It was a joke, that's all. I was at the Fastlane summit (the meet-up for this forum) sitting around a table with folks I highly respect. We happened to be smoking cigars. Yes - you are correct. Cigars aren't exactly a health food. Don't smoke if you don't want to. In fact most folks at the...

    After this weekend I'm fairly convinced it significantly increases the risk of success.

    A few of us spent more than an hour hanging out with MJ over the weekend. How'd we spend it? Mostly smoking cigars, having some drinks, telling stories, laughing, and enjoying each other's company. Wouldn't have done anything differently.
