Hello all, The other day, I was brainstorming a way to keep myself on track with forming new habits and breaking habits that are bringing me down as a person. I eventually landed on an idea of a points system. For me, it helps to really see my progress from week to week or month to month. So...

As I mentioned on the INSIDE, I created a new 1/5/10 Daily Planner that I started using and after 2 weeks of using, I love it even more than my old system. (Meaning it is more effective). This new version incorporates 1/5/10 planning with a bit of gamification using a point system. I added the...

Since it's the New Year, it's a good time to remind people to examine their 1/5/10 Planasy, if they are written. This plan, coupled with a weekly and monthly reminder of goals is how to realistically achieve goals, unlike most of the world who only makes goals the first week of January. This...

Don't wait till New Year's Day. What will you focus on in 2022?

Hey Guys, While I have been blessed in my life with great parents the life hasn't been all that sweet. And todays story has been motivated by another gut wrenching blow, but on that more shortly. I come from a little known country Latvia located in Eastern Europe where the rough weathers...

Hi All, I’ve nearly finished MJ’s book, ‘UnScripted’ and I’ve decided to just dive into the world of Coding. I’ve got ambitions, dreams, and a whole lot of WHY’s. I used to walk the Slowlane, scrounging every dime I could by not spending; today, I just went out my way and got myself a top of...

I spoke about this at the Fastlane Summit... The dangers of "perfect is the enemy of good" and "done is better than perfect." If you want "good results", shooting for good statistically probably won't do it. Watch the video to find out what will... View...

Hi folks, I'm curious. Has anyone here in this forum really reached their initial goals? By that, I mean starting with nothing, and deciding "I will do X and earn X in X days/weeks/months/years" and actually achieved it? I don't know, it seems to me pursuing a goal is actually...

Hello fellow fastlaners, I'd like to share with you the progress of my first product: Satistime Development on the tool started over a year ago. Back then I was frustrated with the existing todo list solutions, as none of them allowed me to schedule my todos. I could set due dates, but no...

Hey everyone, I've found this method of setting goals to be very helpful. It covers how to set and define good goals. But more importantly, it gives a good framework for getting more in touch with your motivation for achieving your goals. This is mostly courtesy of Jordan Peterson's framework...

https://yearcompass.com/ Found this another day and thought I'd share, may be valuable for some. 1M+ downloads since 2012 YearCompass is a global movement that mobilises people to sort out their last year and plan their next one in order to have a greater awareness of their lives. Most of...

This is a topic I have researched and gotten advise on allot. Most crap, allot too complicated and others a waste of time. Resulting in developing my own format, jumbled together from external sources, that to this day still changes and gets adjusted according to books i am or have read. MFL...

Currently working a typical office 9-5 while in the early stages of my eCommerce/Amazon business. The problem is... The daily morning drive fills me with dread. The last 2 years have taught me nothing new, each day follows the same brain-rotting repetitive routine, and the pay is ok. The...

Over the years, I’ve seen a few different types of goal setting journals, but never actually bought one as I wasn’t convinced of their value. I’m starting to think that having something like this would help me hit my goals quicker as it’ll help my focus. Does anyone have any recommendations of...

A few of you have messaged me through various means, checking up on me, the status of my business and just to chat. Some of you may have noticed that I haven't been around a lot lately. Why? I'm stuck in the Desert of Desertion. I've been putting off writing this thread for a while, for...

Hello, I enjoyed reading the top posts so much that I had to create an account an introduce myself. I'm a 26 year old entrepreneur / child of the tech age. I started a few "easy" startups that aren't going anywhere. I've been independent from my parents since 18, but most of my adult years I...

Hi All! Just wanted to say hi to everyone and introduce myself! (again) :) I had been a member of the forum some time ago, but actually became inactive for quite a few years, due to starting a couple of businesses. I made the move from employee to business owner and successfully started and...

I have to admit, it is really frustrating when it comes to trying to build a business if you have no clue what steps you should take next. Then I grew sick and tired of not moving forward because I lacked direction; so I found a solution. Instead of trying to look forward into the future and...

#1: Accept Reality: There Are No Shortcuts. Real Change Requires a Real Process. Let’s first get the uncomfortable shit out of the way. Anything worthwhile in life will require a worthwhile effort. There are no shortcuts. There are NO silver bullets, NO magic pills, and NO secret sauces. If...

Studies tell us that only 3% of people in the USA set goals, and they are among the wealthiest people in the nation! Worldwide the percentage is probably lower. Why so low? There are several reasons, but one of the main reasons is lack of know-how. When I ask people why they don't set goals they...
