Currently in highschool and haven't learned a thing in the last 2-3 years of school, except for math. I originally wanted to get a computer science degree, which could lead to the fast lane as I could use programming for business but I'd prefer not to. I'm stuck in between wanting to start a...

I know the decision is my own and I’d like to hear your input. I’ve sacrificed a lot these last 6 months. I saved a little cash, moved from NJ to GA for both business and personal reasons, and am currently learning web development to familiarize myself with CENTS (even though freelancing...

You probably have heard things like, “The A students work for the C students.” Which Carrie’s some truth to it, but what it really means is that the ones that didn’t follow orders and had the critical thinking to ask themselves: “Why am I learning this?” “Will this even help me in life?” “How...

Hi guys i am from india and currently pursuing engineering I had two choices while joing the college 1) a college with good entrepreneurship environment with civil major(low job opportunities). 2) a college with not so good entrepreneurship environment but with good major I choose option 1. I...

Hey everyone, very excited to join the community! I'll tell you a little about myself and my journey so far and then we'll get into my plan for Fastlane. A little about me I'm Colin, 24 y/o living in Canada. I grew up with a Financial Advisor for a mom, so the Slowlane has been ingrained in me...

Hey guys, I'm fresh outta college. 21. Studied engineering. I interned at a startup for the last 4 months, they are now offering me a full time job since I've graduated. This startup is in the B2B fintech space, I get to work with the CEO and investors first hand, got to learn a lot of shit in...

Hello everyone, my name is Tomás, I am 20 years old and I live in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I am here in the forum thanks to the fact that I stumbled upon the TMF book by MJ Demarco hidden on the shelf of the best bookstore in my city, it only took me 5 pages to buy it immediately. When I...

Hi all, So I've just finished TMF and it's actually blown my mind. I'm going to have to take a few days and probably read it again to process to be honest. Personally, based on the roadmaps, I'm somewhere between the sidewalk and the slow lane. I got a job out of school selling luxury cars...

Hi, last year I interviewed @eliquid for my Podcast. I've never learned so much from a single Interview. If you liked MJ's Unscripted book you'll love what Jason shares in this interview. He is probably the best real life model of the unscripted philosophy I've ever encountered. If...

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...

Hi guys, I was wondering how jobs that usually require you to perform additional work at home, effect you working on your own business. My job is in real estate, and usually requires me working on additional tasks at home (analysis, rent/sales comparables, using the MLS etc.) What was your...

I would like to share with you my journey to the biggest lesson I have learnt during one of the darkest but most transformative phases of my life. It is what has finally enabled me to commit to the fastlane for good: no more excuses, no more fear. A little bit of context: My parents are quite...

I am stuck, even after 10 months on this forum. TLDR: Do I revamp and fastlane my slow lane handmade widget business, or do I just do that for money while I execute some other fastlane ideas? The problems I struggle with: Problem #1: My handmade widget business is very slow right now. And...

Just saw this on Facebook, made me think of TMF: Chicago man, 98, turns $1,000 in stock into $2 million and donates it all to wildlife I respect this mans philanthropy no doubt, but it took 70 years for that $1k to become $2m, and he's almost a hundred. I couldn't imagine he'd have any other...
