    [Progress] Human Longevity Business

    EXECUTION 
    Update: Logo is done and it is perfect. So glad I went with a local designer that I could sit down and have coffee with and talk about what the mission of the business is and what I am looking to accomplish with the business. He was able to get a more accurate picture of my personality and...

    [Progress] Human Longevity Business

    EXECUTION 
    Update: Spoke with a local graphic designer late last week and he was able to create some initial logo designs for me to review. The guy did a great job getting the design elements I wanted in there. We are in the final adjustments phase right now (color and shading) and should have that...

    Panic Setting In

    INTRO

    Rep bank $0? How it mimics your real life bank.

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    This is a fantastic thread about creating value. As a newer-ish member, I feel the same way as many of the other new contributors out there. This forum has a TON of amazing information already in it about a wide variety of topics. It's intimidating to get on here to try to provide value right...

    Which fastlaners do you follow on Twitter?

    MINDSET 
    Twitter is a great platform if you can manage to curate your feed to what you are looking for. Noise on Twitter can be kept to a bare minimum with little to no effort. All comments can be ignored. I use it as a news feed and it works fantastic. It's not as chaotic as people think. Just spend...

    What's stopping you?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    What is stopping you, right now, from starting your business? Nothing. Business has been started. The fear of what family would say WAS stopping me for a long time. That fear has been crushed. What is stopping you from making your first sale? Fear of financial loss. I am very close to...

    Starting again and again...will it be different this time?

    EXECUTION 
    This is very true. It is very difficult for some people to maintain the discipline to keep moving forward when there is little to no reward early on. Having a clear goal and daily reminders of WHY you are doing it in the first place is a huge help for me. The WHY and the GOAL are what keep...

    Anyone out there remember "The Internet Treasure Chest"? One of those late night infomercials that promises the world for a small fee. It was back in the early 2000s when I was just getting out of high school and I already hated working for someone else. You can read about some of their legal...

    When it hurts bad enough, you will figure out a way to stop wasting time on things that aren't moving you forward toward your goals. Until then, it's going to be a back and forth battle.

    What habit changed your life?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    The one habit that changed my life for the better was simply drinking a full glass of room temperature water immediately after waking up in the morning. The body is typically dehydrated to some extent in the morning and sending a rush of water into it right away helps kick start the brain and...
