    The "Astonishing Secrets" Thread

    While I value your opinion about picking up the phone, it's not always the solution. For example if your business model is E-commerce or media buying, who are you going to call? My problem is not fear because I already picked up the phone numerous times and I constantly push my limits. And I am...

    Hey @IceCreamKid, when you have time I would love to read more about how you reprogram your mind. I recorded myself repeating WHY I really want to be successful, but I am struggling to make it more motivating. Edit: I am referring to this post...

    The Best example I could find for you is Eskil's progress thread: https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/eskils-progress-thread-starting-a-supplement-business-from-scratch.41961/ From his own words: "The seven active ingredients are a powerful pack of already widely known, true and...

    NO, selling one more soap or shampoo will not make you rich. You need to dig deeper and find out the little gaps to be filled. For example, x % of the market are allergic to some of the ingredients in soap or x % of the market wants a product that get rids of dandruff (Head & Shoulders nailed...

    Gary Halbert 30 day challenge Copywriting Group

    HOT! MARKETING 
    As I mentionned in the other thread, I am doing the challenge. But I haven't put a time constraint on myself and for me the challenge is actually to do everything Gary Halbert recommends. It takes me at least two weeks to read a book so I estimate it will take me about a year to complete. Good...

    Looking to bootstrap through copywriting?

    HOT! 
    Thanks, this was confusing me. :) Are you also taking the challenge? I would be down for a discussion/accountability group. It's great to see so much motivation around the forum for learning copy!

    Looking to bootstrap through copywriting?

    HOT! 
    I am actually taking the Gary Halbert challenge myself and started reading the Boron Letters. As you mentionned, it's a rigorous method but I know it will be worth it. Thanks for posting this link again. :) Anyone knows what he meant when he recommended reading "The Gary Halbert Letter" (all...

    Make the awesome, ideal lifestyle everybody dreams of!

    IDEA 
    The way you describe it sounds like you just want to have fun right now. But seriously, what is the BEST choice for you? What are you going to regret more in 15-20 years from now? Are you going to regret not commiting all your energy to business or not partying with hot ladies...

    So many ideas, but not in love with any of them

    IDEA 
    I was in your position a few months ago, having tons of "ideas". But what do you actually consider a good idea? Do they solve a burning need? Have you assessed them using the N.E.C.S.T system described in the book? Focus on one and take it as far as possible, you won't regret it.

    Where to begin? Focus on finding a need?

    The best thing you could do is observing the world around you from a producer's point of view. As MJ explains in his book, you will progressively become really good at identifying unfulfilled needs, market inefficiencies, unsolved problems, bad customer service...etc. It doesn't have to be the...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I just read the book. From start to finish I couldn't put it down because I was learning so much in every chapter. The part that resonates the most with me is when MJ explains that we should focus on solving needs rather than chasing money. I will definitely recommend the to anyone. Thanks MJ !

    Can your idea be stolen?

    IDEA 
    There is a difference between giving away your idea and giving away your blueprint for execution. Overall, it is counterproductive to be too protective about your idea. When you tell people about your idea they can actually give you some feedback and new perspectives. It will help you refine...

    Hi I am Alex from Ottawa

    Hi guys, I am only halfway through the book and my mind is already blown. I was already intrigued about entrepreneurship from reading the 4HWW and I was introduced to the importance of owning assets in Kiyosaki's book. However, the TMF is the ONLY book that motivated me to take action. My...
