    I am betrayed and want to kill myself

    Hang in there man...you have way more to look forward to (whether you think so or not) and you will come out of this stronger and better for it. You have a plan and the rest will fall in line in time...don't give up and don't assume that life will never be better because it can and will be. You...

    What watch/es do you own?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I have a T-Touch that I've really enjoyed over the years. Mechanical-wise, Tissot makes one of the finer watches out there, but is not as well thought of as the higher end brands.

    What watch/es do you own?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I'm a watch guy...though I don't spend outside my means to get them. I have a couple Tags and Tissots, but my dream watch is the 1969 Omega Speedmaster Moon Watch...just beautiful. I was just recently given a Gruen pocket watch and that will be fun to play with. Love this thread.

    The 5am Club - Worth it?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Have you read Admiral McRaven's book "Make your Bed"? Fantastic little read about starting your day off with a success. Personally, I am a military man, and believe the discipline and structure they taught me at the Academy have helped me to this day.

    The 5am Club - Worth it?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Personally, I am a night owl. With that said, I actually started going to bed a little earlier and have been waking up at 5AM to go workout and then head to work. It has been a great way to start off my day. As I always say, to each their own on this one. Best of luck with things.

    Which fastlaners do you follow on Twitter?

    MINDSET 
    I only follow MJ on Twitter. I try to retweet as much of his posts as I can to help spread the word further about the forum.

    Great thread; I am a high percentage extrovert...Type A personality that has been driven to succeed my entire life. I love social situations and I really enjoy talking to people, hearing their stories and building relationships with them. I try very hard to be in the moment no matter what I'm...

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Yes, that part of the book is gold. Before I read Unscripted, I put a few thousand dollars into the market (nothing big) and focused on betting on the stocks that I thought were coming down the road (robotics, blockchain, etc). After reading the book and learning from MJ, I sold out of almost...

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I would argue it's THE best business book on the market because it tells it like it is and it completely changes the way you view your life. I've literally read hundreds of books on a number of topics from History to Business and anything in between and I can count on one hand the books that...

    Are you most productive early or later in the day?

    MINDSET 
    Without a doubt, later in the day. I'm a total night owl and have always been more productive as the day goes on (sports included).

    What are your thoughts on Bucket Lists?

    MINDSET 
    I created a bucket list years ago (2007?) and started checking items off the list, but found myself utterly consumed by it and put it aside for a while. My family saw that it was taking a toll on me as I stressed about wanting to check items off and warned me about being too obsessive over it. I...

    Your Entrepreneurial "Come to Jesus" Moment? (FTE!)

    NOTABLE! MINDSET FTE 
    I can't say that mine is that different. Although most of my life I knew I wanted to do something entrepreneurial, I was too hesitant to take the leap of faith because everyone around me convinced me the risks weren't worth it and that the slow lane was the way to go. It wasn't until I read...

    If you could only pass on one life lesson to everyone on this forum, what would it be?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    I was hoping to see someone put something like this. My advice is similar to yours: Enjoy the Ride. Put another way, be in the moment. All you have is the present moment, so be in it with people, with your work and your play. Mindfulness is a great thing.

    How to convince my slowlane parents to accept my fastlane ideas?!

    IDEA SLOWLANE 
    I have faced similar backlash in the past few months, from close family. I know they are only trying to look out for me the best way they know how, and they have always been incredibly supportive about everything else in my life, but they simply don't get it when it comes to the Fastlane because...

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Having three kids, I could honestly listen to the Despicable Me soundtracks all day long...I love Pharrell's work. With that said, on a more serious music note, I think the greatest album ever written was Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys. As a product of the 80s/90s, I grew up on Smashing...

    I really enjoyed your portfolio and was wondering how long it took you to draw out the children's book sample. I have a series in mind, but will need an illustrator and I'm trying to gauge who all is out there, how much it will cost me and what type of quality I'm able to get.

    You're from where??

    HOT! INTRO 
    Have lived in DC and just outside Chicago, but find myself settled in New Philadelphia, OH, now. We are a smaller, rural community full of sidewalks and slowlaners in desperate need of some fast lane action.
