    GOLD! MINDSET 
    To my 25 y.o. self with regards to mindset and self-development: Don't bother trying for a political science M.A.; you have no use for it and can just as well read the assigned reading on your own Read Tony Robbins' Unlimited Power in order to understand what he means by the term "belief" and...

    What improved your life so much that you wish you did it sooner?

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Thank you for the suggestion! I'll be checking this and Aron's book. Social anxiety is my self-diagnosis, so I can definitely be wrong about it. My senses are pretty sensitive with regards to color, smells and touch. If I am an HSP though, then I seem to be particularly sensitive to social...

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Out of Frame (the essay series on popular media by The Foundation for Economic Freedom) has a new episode, this time focusing on socialism within the United States through the federal control over American Indian reservations and its consequences: I attended junior and senior year of high...

    If someone offered you a CEO job for millions, would you take it?

    HOT! CHAT 
    I would think they were mad and that reality had taken a strong "Brewster's Millions" turn...and then accept the offer. Having grown up as a diplomat brat, I'm relatively fine with drastically changing my life circumstances (location, friends, etc.). My life is fairly comfortable now. For...

    You can't consume your way onto Team Producer

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    #iresemblethatremark This kind of action-faking is many things: addicting (just take another course or read another book without doing any of the assignments or applying them in any way; more, more, more!) comforting (you never have to stumble and fail if you never practice applying what...

    Mike Winnet, Entrepreneur and AntiGuru YouTuber

    GURUS 
    Mike's channel is excellent for this topic given that he actually practices some of the suggestions they give for wealth creation. His experience as an entrepreneur who built and sold his business for a significant sum (£8 million) makes him a credible person to try out these suggestions and...

    What improved your life so much that you wish you did it sooner?

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Thanks! Mostly working it out myself. I've known that there was something "weird" about me since I was young. I had the most or second-most absences in elementary school and middle school (my high school had a limited absence policy, so I adjusted, but was even more exhausted). When I got...

    What improved your life so much that you wish you did it sooner?

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Recognizing my social anxiety. Just being in the same room as another person triggers my awareness of them and my need to acknowledge them in my actions and behavior, with an aim to be pleasing and to leave the person better off. Normal social interaction is tiring. Probably due to my anxiety...

    How much should you care? (That the world is burning)

    HOT! HEALTH 
    Twitter is "Crisis Maximization: The Platform." It is where the Id goes to jerk its knee at any and all stimulus. As far as I am aware, the world is always ending, at least within the media of the day. With 24-hour news and social media, the messaging is just more frequent and intrusive. My...

    Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order by Ray Dalio

    INVESTING 
    These are more just quick reflections/rants than a discussion on my end. In general In a world where way too many people predict X, Y and Z without data or humility (and no repercussions for being wildly off the mark), it is refreshing to have Dalio be so cautious in sharing the reflections he...

    Thanks Sheens! I've started with daily dictation/writing practice to build a habit, which I can then direct toward writing deliberately. So I have begun with the first steps. :-)

    Heya Jonathan! Thanks for the tips and recommendations as well as the cheers! ^_^ I'll be checking out those books. I am just starting now with taking steps building an audience/fan base. I think I understand the importance of providing value to the audience before having any expectation that...

    35 y.o. fantasy/sci-fi enthusiast & gov. worker in Norway

    INTRO 
    The only thing stopping me is, well, me. The more detailed answer would be my script. I have so far been well-suited for directed work, where there is a clear "do this to get that done" (school work, tech support). Once I have the directed work under control, then I open myself up to seeing and...

    Can I criticize (or hate) a book I haven't read entirely?

    BOOKS 
    It depends on what you're gonna say about it. For example, when what you have heard about the book sounds unappealing or not worth your time you can say "From what I have heard, I don't think I would like it/that it is worth my time" without spending any time reading it. If you're actually...

    Hey there, My name's Nick (Nicholas Vikør Green) and my reason for aiming for the fastlane is to not have to make the same choice as my mother with regards to working more hours/spending less time with my kids (when I have them) in order to afford a good lifestyle. I also don't want to be a...

    Read it after reading The Millionaire Fastlane (which I read after reading several Slowlane books and living that life for a year, which made all your references in both books sting that much more).

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Read and enjoyed the book. What convinced me to check it out was your interview/book summary with OnePercentBetter. His phrase "Classic MJ. Classic." rang in my head for some time until I just knew I'd have to check it out.
