    Google search has now slowed me down!

    RANT 
    I look up terminology every day. Have you noticed what happened with Google this week? The searches now fill each result with (on the first line) a brand icon, the source URL, followed by the URL's keyterms or interior pages, and then an arrow dropdown to select "cached" ... and all this is...

    Primary vendor raising its costs by 150% forces innovation (command of Control)

    EXECUTION 
    Over the next few weeks, I'm going to be looking around for how I can eliminate my reliance on this particular vendor. For about three years, the service they provided me with has been a perfect fit for my system, a perfect cog in my business wheel. They wrote that they're raising my cost per...

    My 23yo kid now enjoys passive income (before I get to)

    Last week my son received his first royalty check for one song that he produced in 2019. He has a talent in the music industry, writing songs and producing music for himself and for various artists in LA. I asked him if he'd read TMF and he said that he did, back when I sent it to him two...

    How does Value Perception help you?

    MINDSET 
    I've got to give myself a little credit. I did a "2X" in 2018. I doubled my prices and tripled sales by doing it. It's the "value perception" that really paid off. I'm on a platform (Fiverr) where literally anybody can join and claim to do the same thing that I do. But the number of...

    I am in a better spot now - after reading TMF in '14

    MINDSET FTE 
    I knew things were going to change after reading the book. But I still don't feel like it's going fast enough for me. However, I've been working my tail off and, if I allow myself to remember how shitty it was -- collections agencies, state aid, borrowing/getting money from family, gf paying...

    Can I build a productocracy out of this?

    My story goes back to '15, when I was logging in here and there doing "micro-pay" digital-oriented work for the tiniest of tasks like... Well, it doesn't matter, but I did that until I didn't have to any more. I started transcribing audio for very low rates. I joined Fiverr, and put my gig up...

    bitcoin MLM FUNDMYCAUSE.net legit or scam?

    There is a bitcoin "gifting" scheme going on called Fund My Cause. Has anyone heard of this? My son dropped US$100 into it, and I'm hoping he'll learn his lesson before too much time goes by. When he was younger, his big brother was a Vemma rep while it lasted. So I guess he thinks it's his...

    Beer Money, Finally.

    MINDSET 
    1. Immediate Needs. 2. Full Rent 3. Paying the bills. 4. Grocery Money. 5. Beer Money, Finally. These are the tiers which I have always been trying to reach. I used to bounce around between 1, 2, & 3... When you start from literally zero dollars, nothing gets taken for granted. By "start" I...

    Failing to Fail Fast

    MINDSET FAILURE 
    One year ago I was in the middle of performing maximum hourly output for a predetermined compensation. I had a set fee per hour for the work I was doing on that project, and the client had set a limited budget per week. By the time the client stopped paying, I found myself in the middle of a...

    Mind Blown! 3D Printing in Space

    EXECUTION 
    THIS article is about how NASA emailed a wrench up to an astronaut... who printed it on a 3D printer. http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-30549341 One of my favorite parts of this story: "Mr Wilmore installed the printer on the ISS on 17 November. On 25 November he used the machine to...

    Protecting... and Collecting (LOL)

    FUNNY 
    IT PROTECTS... AND IT COLLECTS This is the slogan for a niche I discovered when my son said he had to pee... after he put on all his hockey gear. I'm thinking I should totally go with the idea: Every player wears a cup. Now I need to figure out a good design for the ... "collecting" part...

    Applying My System to a Different Niche

    EXECUTION 
    I have a question: What's CENTS (next) for me? I have "ECST" figured, but need to vary my thinking on the "N" part. Right now I have a System in search of a niche. On one hand, I already do have a target niche market. On the other, I must find another niche to exploit with the same System...

    Action Step: Start a Meetup. [check!]

    MEETUPS 
    Hello Fastlaners! One of my Action steps was to start a Meetup. So I did, and now I've gotten an unexpected positive response in the form of Meetup joins and RSVPs. Now I need to effectively steer the Meetup into the FastLane MINDSET. (But I'm winging it!) So in the next few days I need to...

    Purely Unemployable

    INTRO 
    ~ Hello to my new friends! About me: I've had an entrepreneurial mindset all my life it seems. (I didn't actually realize this though!) And since getting "let go" seven years ago from a "stable" position as an IS Director with a healthy salary, I've been doing everything I can do for personal...
