    Why stocks, bitcoin, and crypto will NEVER be Fastlane.

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    I invested in stocks for a while and thought the same way: "Ah, but stocks will bring me to the Fastlane" - nope. Never was, never will be & never should be. I only invested in stocks because they should have an intrinsic value - crypto has no use except for the black market. But my experience...

    First Fastlane Anniversary: My Biggest Lessons

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    This is my first anniversary. I'm almost tempted to call it a birthday, as I’ve developed so much obsession with improving my life this past year & I can barely recognise who I've become. It's incredible that, in many aspects, I'm living my dream. I'm structuring this post in two parts: A) The...

    Help with Ecommerce Chemistry Product

    EXECUTION 
    I've been developing my first physical product over the past six months. It started with a stamp idea and then moved to a stencil. It was just a better product. Six months may seem like a long time to get to where I am today, but I think I've done well given I have had chemistry exams, other...

    Be Careful Who You Believe

    MINDSET 
    I was out with a friend & later met up with a bigger group. I got chatting to this guy that had a lot of grandiose ideas for ventures & it sounded like he was on track for great things. After drilling in a bit more I got suspicious he was a wantreneur; an 'all or nothing' mentality (will...

    Quit Alcohol. Try it.

    MINDSET 
    Just over a month ago, I came across this thread about alcohol. I read it, denied its ideas, immediately putting up walls and saying to myself: " nah I'd never quit, what would people think of me? It's just so awkward to say no" " but what about all the friends I've made while drunk? I'm sure...

    Young Men: We Don't Need to Have Life Solved.

    MINDSET 
    I was responding to this post here, it got me thinking. As young guys, some of us put big expectations on ourselves. I do it, other posters do it & all of you young guys lurking do it aswell. We want to be stronger. We want to make an impact. We want to be respected & admired. If you're not...

    Overcoming Action Faking

    MINDSET 
    This has really played on my mind for the past week, and I'm finding lots of what I'm doing is just action faking.

    What are some of the excuses that kill dreams?

    MINDSET EXECUTION 
    I met this business student about six months ago. At the time, he was doing lots of mental masturbation - plenty of ideas floating around in his head & I sat down with him to narrow one down. We selected one, a software idea that he had been cooking for the past year. Right there on the spot, he...

    Chemistry Stenciling - A Scrapped Project?

    IDEA SIDE HUSTLE 
    So this was an idea that I came up with a couple months back. I'm an undergraduate chemist and we have to draw a lot of annoying shapes, stuff like this. I find these shapes annoying, because A) I'm bad at drawing them neatly B) I'm not fast enough & C) they're very repetitive to draw out again...
