    MARKETING 
    Hello fellow fastlaners, I don't need some super specific answer to this questions so I will leave it pretty open-ended (and make it quick because I know your busy). CONTEXT: I was hired on to help a client scale their ecom business online. They sell a bit of product (clothing) in person...

    11.24.23 Quick Friday update here. That's 3 weeks worth of updates in a row! This week, with Thanksgiving, I did not get much done. I have spent some quality time with my family and caught up on some sleep. I still find myself searching for a good excuse to not keep plugging away on my...

    11.17.23 Weekly update time! I got thrown off track a bit this week. I had a high school friend in town and multiple tests in classes. Regardless, I managed to put in around 15 hours. This time was split between reading and web development learning. Here is what I got done. Completed...

    Fastlaners, I am starting this as an execution thread. If you look at my profile, I started one back in March. I didn't stick with it though because I didn't know how to stick with things until recently. Now I am ready. The purpose of this thread is to hold me accountable to documenting my...

    How would you improve your mindset?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    It was already said three different ways in response to your post, but I will reiterate it because it changed my life. Have a big goal, and make progress towards it. Look, if you are not happy now, a million dollars won't change that. I was in your shoes literally 3 months ago thinking thoughts...

    What goals are best?

    INTRO 
    Johnny, I have read many of your posts but have never replied nor interacted with you. I would like to thank you for this wisdom. You essentially summarized every self help book I have ever read. Very actionable advice. I don't know whether it was the brevity of the post or my state of mind...

    What to do?

    INTRO 
    Your goals are good, but they are too ambiguous. Then workout outside. Or get a free trial membership. Or tell the gym your broke and beg for a discount. Here in lies your problem. I don't think you want what you say you want but would prefer the EVENT. You want the easy path literally handed...

    What to do?

    INTRO 
    What do you do for what? Whats your goal. Where do you want to be? Here's a good place to start. Your thirteen so first I would say relax. Second, go to gym. Third, read some good book like unscripted. Report back once you have more clarity. It is hard to tell you what to do when you don't...

    My Story / Accountability

    QUESTION INTRO 
    11 days after my initial posting I am taking initiative. I have started doing 3 things that have given me clarity and a sense of direction. Those are beginning my journey into Web-design, reading unscripted, and sitting down with local business owners and picking their brains. I started my...

    I would like to play off this powerful piece of wisdom... I too was very interested in the "get rich quick" easy business routes at your age. Here is my track record of failures to preface my argument as to why you should start your journey learning skills: 1. 14: I started a drop shipping...

    My introduction to the Fastlane Forum

    INTRO 
    I agree. I do not see myself spending the next 48 years of my life doing something I hate to barely retire (if even). Welcome to the land of enlightenment. I wish you the best of luck and keep us updated. P.S I also am emerging in the world of web design so pm if you want to chat.

    Yolo here to truly realize my new found hope

    INTRO 
    I think the biggest decision you need to make is wether you are "spoon to be an entrepreneur" or "soon to be an entrepreneur". "Spoon to be" seems like an action fake to me. Also the spoon business is not very lucrative if that is what you were getting after. I would recommend being a regular...

    Have you given up on the fastlane?

    INTRO 
    No, but I have learned to identify the part of learning curves (and all the emotions, negative self talk, and uncertainty that come with it) that cause me to quit. I have recently been learning web design, for a multitude of reasons. My dad hired me this summer to essentially rebrand his...
