    What do you do when you have no ideas

    HOT! IDEA 
    I've decided I want to be an entrepreneur but I have no ideas yet. I feel guilty not spending every free minute of my time researching new ideas or learning to make a website. Do you think it will burn me out or do you think it's okay to read books and do other stuff too? I do want to work...

    Cyber Security

    Hey guys so I am currently studying Cyber Security here in college, and I am trying to find ways to leverage a business out of this knowledge. I've thought about things like online courses, ebooks, etc., but what else is there? I'm having trouble brainstorming up some ideas.

    Caveman Going Global Soon!

    INTRO 
    Hi to MJ and to all you Fastlaner people I'm a Scotsman living in Andalucia, Spain. In a cave house. Don't laugh, I don't need aircon when it's 40 degrees C out there (over 100 F), and in the winter when there's snow on the ground I rarely need the log fire. Inside it varies only a few degrees...

    Campfire with no smoke

    This is absolutely brilliant! It completely represents what MJ talks about in the book of finding pain points and solving them. This is something that has always bothered me when camping, the smoke seems to follow you! When you complain or hear someone else complain about something, just think...

    Information to knowledge as value creation framework

    Imagine a couple waiting for a first baby, they start to look over the tons of literature and experiences on delivery process. Imagine an entrepreneur starting e-commerce business who must understand the SEO and look through dozens of questionable sources and webinars and books. Or a person...

    How Bad Do You Want It? Really Bad, yet I'm Stuck in Park!

    3:43 P.M. I’ve had it. Literally just screamed “f this” to the top my lungs! Read TMF and Unscripted, understand the 5 fast lane commandments, engine is primed and fueled, but I’m missing something. What that is, I don’t know (execution?). I’ve had enough, and it’s time to hit the fastlane and...

    'Pick' Up The Beef Jerky Packaging Industry!

    and add a little pouch of toothpicks. What if every single bag of your favorite beef jerky came with a tiny plastic pouch of 3-4 toothpicks? The cost would be a penny or less per unit addition, and the value of the packaging would instantly create an entirely new benefit which no other brand...

    Hours at work been cut way back, how can I bring in more money?

    EXECUTION 
    What it says on the tin. My hours at work have been cut significantly, and while it's cheap to make the product I've come up with, I need more money. (Before you state the obvious solution of getting a second job, I'm trying but nothing yet.) Any ideas?

    You can't just will an app idea into success, yall

    IDEA 
    I get a lot of questions, since I'm in the mobile app space, where people think if you can come up with some idea where the keywords are easy to compete on, throw up compelling app icon and marketing and "game" the system, you can make any idea work. Almost 100% false. Paul Graham touches on...

    MINDSET 
    Remember that guy in Forrest Gump that followed Forrest as he was running across the country and all of a sudden Forrest stops, turns around and says "I think I'll go home now" and that guy freaks out and shouts "NOW WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO???" Don't be "Running on Empty" (Jackson Browne)...

    I have more difficulty coming up with idea's than I executing them

    IDEA 
    This is my first real post here at TFF, so I guess I should start by giving some basic information about myself and my current situation. I'm a 17-year-old high school student in America. My family is financially stable, completely supported by my dad's personal business as an electrician, but...
