    How to (not) focus on multiple things at once and achieve mediocre results.

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Oh wow, thanks for the GOLD! Your subtle one line answer in the call really made it all click for me! I had never heard the term "Singular Focus" used like that before, but it makes total sense now. That video played a great part in making me realize why this is so important as well. I have...

    How to (not) focus on multiple things at once and achieve mediocre results.

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Finally got around to listening to the fastlane insiders podcast hosted by @Vigilante featuring @MJ DeMarco & @AllenCrawley from May 28th. The episode itself was gold and I highly recommend checking out the recording (available on the inside) if you haven't already. The one thing which stuck...

    Unlisted on YouTube is basically just a public video which doesn't show up in search or notify your subs etc. Anyone who has the url can still share the link on their website etc. Vimeo lets you create a password, so your patreons will get access to that password and need it to unlock the video...

    Vimeo might be a better option, and later you can transition to doing longer vimeo on demand videos as well (Share private videos: secure video sharing by Vimeo). A Green Screen and Softbox Lighting Kit would go a long way with your editing skills ;) not sure about soundproofing / acoustics...

    +1 on this. Interested in hearing more about growing the patreon side as well. Other things you can do is - * Allow early access (24-48h) to upcoming videos for patreon subscribers (this would also be AD FREE since its unlisted). * Bonus footage like you mentioned, along with bloopers...

    Nice! Thanks for the info. You had some great points. This is huge :D I haven't looked much into this area yet so don't know how it entirely works (esp in the uk), but wouldn't the income already be considered earned when its paid into your AdSense account ? i.e Since you did't have a company...

    Agreed, This and the fact that this is a front row seat of a productocracy in action. So far, Valier has mentioned MJ's books in 3 videos which at the moment have around 1.5 million views total. This will probably reach to around 10m+ once he reaches a few mil subscribers with $0 marketing on...

    Yeah, I like it. It's discreet like Andy said. I had some trouble deciding what to do here in my case as well. Two options are either your own logo / name, or the subscribe icon or word. With the subscribe icon / word, viewers are constantly reminded to subscribe and if they run into a part of...

    They have official ones on the YouTube website also (minus the text). I took this and mixed it with my initials to give a personal touch, similar to how MJ has his.

    Oh man, this was so inspiring and surreal. I had this thread bookmarked after MJ shared it on his instagram story a few days back, and then today I saw your "kevin systrom" video in the suggested videos of MJ's latest "excellence" video. I was wondering who this "james jani" is and why I haven't...

    Oh man, would love to attend, but it's in the middle of the night for my current timezone. Any chance of having this recorded and watchable later ? Of course, only for people with Insider subscriptions.

    What do you guys think of Sara Blakely's Masterclass?

    HOT! 
    Masterclass is amazing! For me, its the most valuable online learning platform out there right now and I have found incredible value in all the courses I have watched so far. My only problem is not having enough time to watch more of them. All the courses are really well produced and the fact...

    Best MJ DeMarco Quotes?

    "If you want to make millions, impact millions" Both the books are pretty much full of quotable gold nuggets and paragraphs tbh though.

    I've noticed huge improvements in my personal life, health, energy and confidence levels as well since starting this. I always used to be a night owl but this has easily been the single biggest improvement I've made in my life. As Hal mentioned in the "Miracle Morning", the 1st 20-30 days are...

    Audiobooks - Reclaiming your time

    NOTABLE! 
    I've recently gotten hooked on audiobooks as well, mainly to fill in the gaps (commute etc). I don't think they are a substitute for books though and some books still have a much greater impact when read (and are easier to scan or come back to a certain section etc ), but I use it extensively...

    Anybody reading fiction??

    HOT! 
    Neuromancer is my all time favorite as well. Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson is another good one. I used to read fiction before bed as well but have switched to non fiction and biographies now. Some of them have some great stories in them and are a fun / light read. Depends on the book though.
