    How to Win the Day, Crush Your Goals, and Make 2024 the Best Ever with MJ DeMarco

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    Trying out GoalSumo and I've set up a couple of goal chains. So far I really like that experience, it forces me to walk through the chunking process for bigger goals. The youtube video explaining the process with a running-a-marathon-goal was very helpful in that regard. I'm a bit confused...

    Forum update coming, what do you want?

    IMPORTANT! 
    For what it's worth, the two forums that used Discourse I frequented at never had any downtime. You can self-host it if you want, I believe, so that might be the reason why (don't know if they did). Not discounting your experience or steer you towards Discourse — maybe I just had a lucky draw...

    Alex Hormozi. What is your opinion? Mine is (mostly) negative.

    Can we book this guy for the next summit to play some tunes?

    Forum update coming, what do you want?

    IMPORTANT! 
    Been in a couple of forums that use Discourse and I’ve been perfectly content with that. Great mobile support + search functionality, which are my biggest two annoyances. I looked at Flarum myself back when it was in beta and we needed a forum of our own. Looks to mimic Discourse mostly...

    Alex Hormozi. What is your opinion? Mine is (mostly) negative.

    GURUS 
    I'd heard Hormozi's name around the forum but never bothered to check his material out. Because of this thread, I did. Seems like solid work, tbh. I estimate the knowledge in his $100m offers book isn't news to some people (it was to me), but that goes for a lot of books. Will certainly apply...

    How To Go From a Scarcity To an Abundance Mindset. This changed my life.

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Great message, and instant gold I reckon! You must be very appreciative of Gil having pushed back on you for so long. It paid off in the end. :) Also, nice to see one of the legends from the books post here. Turns out you're just a real human being. ;) And I only say that half-jokingly, because...

    Testing for App Concept - Thoughts?

    IDEA 
    Hmm, I'm probably not the target audience, because I usually like to keep my goals private, but here goes: I'd frame this more as an accountability thing. What's the biggest problem that habit trackers solve? That it can be downright hard to get a habit to stick. What makes it more likely...

    Note Taking

    MINDSET 
    Did the courses you followed include copywriting? Or creative writing at all? Because that's a skill you can use in your own note taking too. I usually take notes with the mindset of "I'm writing an article on this that I could post on a blog". With the mindset that others should benefit, you...

    Resources for copywriting basics

    MARKETING 
    Thanks, this is exactly the kind of gold I was looking for. 15 strong lessons to bootstrap my copywriting adventure. Applying the lessons to my landing page as we speak. There's always time to narrow down and specialize later. That's a great, succinct reminder of what it's all about. Why should...

    Resources for copywriting basics

    MARKETING 
    Hello all, I'm in the process of building a landing page for my business to gather soft proof, and I'd like to learn the basics of copywriting. I don't endeavour to become an expert in this, nor do I want to turn copywriting into a freelance business (which apparently a lot of people around...

    Getting Sales Journey

    EXECUTION 
    I usually don’t tell either. I find keeping your plans initially to yourself builds internal tension, which drives you forward by wanting to “do the work”. Telling others is just another form of action-faking, because you get feedback and endorphins and whatnot and it feels like you’re making...

    I've Read The Great Rat-Race Escape!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Read the other two books a couple of years ago, and finished listening to TGRRE just now. I think the fictional parts only added to the book. Great choice, it adds relatability to the fastlane theory sections. Helps with retention 'n stuff.

    I'm thinking about starting a porn business but would it be morally ok, and is the competition to high?

    IDEA LANDFILL 
    Plenty of people have already said something on the morality of the topic, but from a fastlane business perspective this sounds like a bad idea too. You are supposed to care about your future customers. What are they struggling with most? What issues are they facing daily really? If you want to...

    Weekly Meetup Accountability Call Megathread

    MEETUPS 
    Only found out about the call when it was already on, but I joined halfway and would like to thank everyone involved for their advice and good vibes. Would love to provide help for others in return the next time I join. And a big thanks for hosting, @Subsonic. Hope your surgery goes well, MJ.

    UNPOPULAR OPINION: Watching YouTube Business Videos Is A Waste Of Time

    SOCIAL MEDIA RANT 
    And swap out YT with books or podcasts or webinars or even forums or any other medium for dispensing information, and the equation stays the same, of course.

    Want to Succeed? Don’t Waste Your Time Doing This…

    MINDSET 
    For what it’s worth (and I have no idea whether you should continue or quit), but just wanted to say it’s been educational watching your thread and your openness is laudable. So at the very least you got that going for you ;)

    How many action fakes can the fastlane come up with??

    GOLD! HOT! CHAT 
    Feel the same way about code. Up to an extent cleaned-up code is easier to reason about and helps progress, but there isn’t really an end to it and at some point it’s just diminishing returns and action-faking on my end.

    How can I find my "Lambo"?

    MINDSET QUESTION 
    Ok, so you view yourself as not being materialistic and not caring about money, but if you did, and you had a couple of millions anyway…what would you spend that on? I mean, after you paid for regular life expenses like groceries and electricity bills. How would you burn that money? How would...

    Interest check: European Fastlane Meetup

    MEETUPS 
    Oh, that sounds great! It's hard to travel for me (young kids), but if a future meet-up is happening in the area of the Netherlands I'd definitely join. Maybe help out with organization, depending on other obligations.

    Music Software Video Course

    EXECUTION 
    Took a while before I found some time, but I finally managed to record the script. Got two young kids, and they deserve their share of my time as well. In any case, I am not giving up on this. The mic I ordered sounds great. Off to do some editing now.
