    Franchising with a Fastlane Mentality

    EXECUTION 
    UPDATE: So, a lot has changed over the last 2 weeks. I moved to Chicago to work with my mentor and will be staying here for 6 months. Right now, I am learning what it takes to successfully run one store- which is a lot of work, but I am learning a lot. My mentor has 4 store openings in...

    My Wife is a total sidewalker, any advice?

    HOT! 
    This attitude doesn't have to do with the fact that this person is a woman. It has to do with the fact that this person has major character flaws- like a bad attitude, a bad work ethic, and no patience.

    Daily Youtube Kickstarter Show

    EXECUTION 
    These are actually really good! I love the idea and I thought your videos are really well done- I liked the Birdy Blast joke. I could definitely see this becoming a successful channel. As far as your clothes go, I think that wearing generic, solid colors (like your black shirt) is a good...

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    This. A couple of months ago I started making a list of 10-20 ideas every day- the ideas didn't have the be great, they just had to be ideas for a business, for an app, for a revenue stream...etc then on the next page I would write what would be my first step in execution. That's it. Ive been...

    HOT! 
    I love Robert- My uncle was his personal chef for a period of time a few years ago and he is supposedly a really nice, humble guy. I have a massive amount of respect for all the Sharks, but I've always really liked Robert. As a female, this is one thing that really annoys me. I hate whenever...

    Why I don't need a billion dollars

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Last year I had lunch with a man who used to own his own company, and one of his life goals was for his company to have a billion dollars worth of sales in one year. Everyone thought he was crazy for having this massive goal, and about 7 or so years ago his company reached about 950 million...

    This is how much college costs

    HOT! 
    That's not true. My mentor was an immigrant who left school after 9th grade- he is now worth hundreds of millions of dollars. A degree does not determine your success But the true cost of college really varies depending on a ton of factors, like what college you go to, what state it's in, where...

    I'm the exact same why- I used to do whatever I could to avoid talking on the phone, and now I force myself to do it. It's getting easier, but it still doesn't come natural. So I know exactly how you feel. Red Dress Boutique was awesome- There business was incredibly impressive but I also just...

    Worried Dad - Need "Fastlane" Insight

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    I somewhat disagree with people when they say that letting your son live in your house is coddling him and holding him back- on the other hand I am a 20 year old who lives at home with my dad, so that may be why I feel this way. But whether you decide to let your son live with you or not, I...

    car finance

    INVESTING 
    Well, I bought my first car when I was 18- put 30% down and then paid it off in a little under 2 years. I have excellent credit (especially for a 20 year old) and one of the reasons for my great credit is because of my car payments. So, I think that if you can without a doubt afford the car you...

    Update Things are progressing nicely, I have my territory- Not going to include a map of my territory or anything yet, because the FDD still isn't signed, but I have a territory in the Dallas area. I'm currently in negotiations with everything regarding the FDD- like opening dates, fees...etc...

    Is there a Correlation Between Fitness & the Fastlane?

    MINDSET 
    I think so- I think the great thing about fitness is it gives you appreciation for the process, which is important for success as an entrepreneur as well as success in the fitness world. I spent my entire life overweight- when I was 14 years old I weighed close to 200 pounds and being a 5'6"...

    Is it a waste of time to read too much?

    I think that if you mistake reading for taking action then it can be a problem. Some people get the idea that they are making progress and they are taking action because they read 2-3 hours a day- when in actuality reading is not taking action.

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    I live in Dallas and I am not concerned- With the right precautions Ebola can easily be contained and with the Western medicine and medical practices I don't think it will be a severe problem here. Just like with anything, I think it is important to be aware of the problem, wash your hands, keep...

    What to do with a college fund with $15,000

    I wouldn't even bother getting just your associates- I think that if you are going to go to college just commit and get a Bachelors. I have my associates, and it is a pretty BS degree, and it doesn't do much for you as far as opportunities go.

    Shark Tank Master Thread, Episode Discussion

    HOT! 
    I thought it was a terrible pitch and a terrible idea. I don't know about other people, but I would rather go to Justice of the Peace than get married out of a van. The fact that they essentially sold their business in Vegas was a huge mistake, but aside from that I just thought the idea was...

    Agreed- and I thought that Barbara was really pretty harsh when saying that the girls didn't "stay true" to their original purpose. I really liked the product, and liked them Yeah, but it's true. Like Robert said, they are creating a $2000 product, and it's biggest competition is something...

    Entry in Airport Concessions

    I don't know much about this industry, but I do know that airports are VERY expensive to get into- rent for an airport location, especially at a large/international airport will be ridiculous. Keep that in mind while moving forward with this project
