    INTRO 
    1. Read a lot of books on business, psychology, sale, marketing, self-development, biographies of successful people and any topics that really interest you. 2. Get some kind of part time job or side hustle that can start paying you almost straight away, and start saving and investing that...

    Would everyone living to 1000 years old make the slowlane viable?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    We'd have much longer time preferences, making us more willing to invest in innovative enterprises that may take decades for their technology to become profitable. This would massively increase technological development and likely the slowlane system would cease to exist.

    Your story definitely reinforces the idea that entrepreneurialism is a personality trait. You start on a project as a kid, you get the entrepreneurial bug. Comforting for me as we have a similar journey except you gotta divide those annual revenue stats by 50 to get my numbers :rofl:(except...

    Are You ADDICTED to Reading?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Reading is a great hobby for increasing knowledge, expanding your mind and inspiring new ideas. I'm 30 books in to my 50 book for the year challenge. However, it is a hobby. When people mistake it for being productive, for action towards their goals, this is where the trouble lies. I read...

    1,000,000 Followers On Social Media: How I Am Doing It & How You Can Too

    SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING 
    I have 600,000 followers on IG (500k on one page) in the wealth space. I'm hoping to brand myself more as the Mark Manson of Instagram rather than the Grant Cardone of Instagram (seems to be your approach) but I can respect your hustle. I wouldn't call IG no work though. I work a lot of hours...

    EXECUTION 
    I'm not a guru, nor am I anyone's idol. And I strongly believe my page is a force for good. I make financial literacy, and self-development content bitesized. Making money ethically is important to me. I make my content. I think you're getting confused, pages copy my content because I'm one of...

    EXECUTION 
    Thank you! And I only pay myself about £2k a month in salary and then invest half of that so it is just getting by for now. My largest income source by far is social media marketing services for businesses - they've seen what I've done growing my page and want me to run their pages - nothing...

    I said: "The website is $3000". They said: "Too expensive! I was thinking $500!"

    HOT! MARKETING 
    I deal with this daily when selling shoutouts on my page or larger SMM services. After a while I just found it was so much better mentally for me to say that's the price - take it or leave it (you can put it more politely than that) and then if they don't take it almost immediately, end the...
