You seem very well educated and I can see your passion through the writing, but then I see some of your writing that is like

F*ck with me. I dare you. Say the wrong shit and it's no smile, nigga - run up and it's CLICK CLACK POW, NIGGA.

There's no need for that man. I understand your background, trust me - I was born in New Orleans. There's no benefit in associating with anything to do with that kind of lifestyle. I was once there, too. Absolutely evolve and adapt into killing it in the business world, professionally. You seem driven but remember that action speaks the loudest. It does seem like you're an action-taker too though.

All the best.

Damn I remember reading one of your posts a while back. You said you didn't even finish MJ's book at the time and you're not a Fastlane INSIDERS.

It sounds like you're killing it though!

You're an action taker for sure. I was watching one of MJ's videos today about action...and I have been fooling myself with petty stuff. You're energy comes out strong again from the digital text of my screen haha. I don't know how you get to that state but I'm going to read your blog now...I need to get to the state of mind you're at.

I still don't know your story but I hope to hear it soon, on Forbes like you said. Or maybe write a book right in a few years?

Right now you changed my state of mind a bit though, gave me a different perspective. Thank you for that.

I need to be more aggressive and I need a real Fastlane plan.

I'll be looking forward to the update on your progress man. Good stuff, it's what I needed!

Alot of this post is overblown, useless, derogatory garbage.

Im glad you're in the game, but don't break the forum rules bringing up religion and saying things are "sweeter than pussy".

Im sure the women here don't enjoy reading these things.

This one's for the nigga who introduced me to the streets of Chicago

It was great to see you tonight, nigga. Stay safe out there. These streets ain't no joke. It gets realer and realer every day.

who's going to be in the Lambo with me when we stuntin' on all the hatin' a$$ bitches.

Corporate gangsta for real.

F*ck with me. I dare you. Say the wrong shit and it's no smile, nigga - run up and it's CLICK CLACK POW, NIGGA.

This one's for all my old bitches: F*ck all of you. This one's for all the motherfuckin' racists in Ohio who called me a nigger: Thank you.







I am destined for extraordinary greatness.

I got bored of superlatives & drama half the read. Do what you say and then come back here.

Over the past several months, I have attempted to sit down and write this post countless times. Today, finally, the inspiration struck my soul like a bolt of lightening.

And stop procrastination...

Jesus Christ, did you just break out of the loony bin and smoke some anti-depressants? You are literally ALL OVER THE PLACE. A bleeding heart crying about being depressed one minute, then the next comparing yourself to a God. Normally I'm all for people being all excited and uproarious about their journey, but that was just a shitstorm of drivel and I'm pretty sure you're a crazy person.

And really?
F*ck with me. I dare you. Say the wrong shit and it's no smile, nigga - run up and it's CLICK CLACK POW, NIGGA.
I don't care who you are. But really, how is this petty pride bullshit going to make you rich or benefit you in any way?

There's more, but I'll leave it be. Good luck.

Is this serious or is someone screwing with us?!?

There's 60 seconds of my life wasted, from that read, that I'll never get back.

Please remove your garbage from this forum and take it offline.

Do what you do and let us know where you get. I know writing a post like this makes you feel better but its action faking. Don't tell me how nothing is going to stop you and your going to make it, just do it. Let us read about you in the paper and on blogs. Then you can thank everyone.

For the past five years, I have kept my involvement with MJ a secret –
and from us, and MJ...


look your excited I get that...
good on you.

however, Corporate Gansta?

meh,

I have worked with a dozen people who sounded just like this. they spend all their energy trying to "get back at those that held me down"

total waste of time. everyone I worked with like this. is still fighting that fight.

I just like making money, building real businesses, and doing what I want. stop fighting a war, no one cares about but you.
focus on being a real person, with a real direction, not an emotional shitstorm.

btw, no woman in the world like to be called bitches.... NONE.

your prideful, with out the reason for it. this is the actions, words, and thoughts of a child. when you grow up, we will welcome you, till then, your going to keep getting the responses above. all those who "seem like haters" but we are not.

just tired of a childish rant. put the gun down, put the words away. grow up. we always like to see passionate people here. just not childish ones.

Good luck Hope it gets better for you

I love seeing people write about their haters and "they will show them" it's typically made up to be dramatic and motivational. It makes it easier to see which people i should cut out of my life and ignore.... like a big red flag.

Not sure if I should be embarrassed, thankful, or disappointed. :meh:

As you can see, the post hasn't been received well by the people here. I'm not even sure what to think.

First, your use of language is atrocious for a professional business forum. Bitches, niggas, F*ckers, I mean seriously.

Second, your post contains no value. Its all self-loathing. Declarations and proclamations. You know what's missing? Value. What can a reader learn from your experience? If you booked a huge corporate deal with A&F, tell us how! What did you do that can help someone else just getting started? What obstacles to you find? What challenges?

Give the readers something they can chew on and swallow, not something they want to chew on and spit out.

I don't think so.

Damn that changed my perspective too. I didn't even see that part the first time. That picture...

I was once there, too. Absolutely evolve and adapt into killing it in the business world, professionally. You seem driven but remember that action speaks the loudest. It does seem like you're an action-taker too though.

All the best.

In one of his books on Mind Control, Black Science and Mental Manipulation, Dr. HAHA Lung informs the reader that certain tones, sounds and rhythms in music cause specific psychological states in the brain. That's why, as I type this post, I turn my speakers all the way up when Lil' Reese goes... "Better make it count, don't shoot if you ain't got aim. My niggas on your block and best believe they got aim... we don't play no games, we only aim for the brain."

Most people on this site cannot - and will probably never - understand the thought process that I person like me has to continually go through to force myself into the position that I am in right now. They misinterpret my attitude as this or that, but they invariably miss the mark. The inescapable fact is that I am a minority in an extremely racist country, ran by white people. Today, the white people hate it when someone like me says words like "nigga," despite the fact that they are the ones who turned that word into a weapon decades ago. But now, in a brilliant verbal jiu-jitsu move, we now own that word and say it to each other to remove the sting. So, I don't care what anyone says. I'll keep saying the word nigga. They owned my people for decades upon decades, and my ancestors built wealth for them with their sweat. I didn't make this thread because I care what people think. I made it because I'm pissed off, and I will be for a long time until... I don't know when. I made this post for me and my niggas, who are just as pissed off as I am. Now they know who I am. I've been in Zarathustra's proverbial cave for almost three decades, and now the rise begins.

Do what you want, MJ. Give me an infraction. Ban me from the site. Someone said something about me not reading your book, which isn't entirely true. I read part of it, but the truth is that reading your personal story - and the PM's from years ago - is what really helped. I don't expect you to understand, and I can't do anything about how you respond. Ultimately, my strength lies in the fact that I don't give a F*ck anymore.

You give your readers something they can swallow. That's not my job. I've been eating shit my whole life, so now it's time to serve it up. You own this site, so you can choose to delete whatever you want from the menu. That's your call, dude.

But if I can say one more thing, I'll say this. Whether or not anyone likes or dislikes this post isn't gonna stop my grind. It doesn't take the Gucci's off my feet. It doesn't change the fact that I the fire rises in the cold a$$ city of Chicago. It doesn't change the fact that nobody owns me. It doesn't change the fact that I want people to hate me. Everyone who posted gave me damn near EXACTLY what I wanted, because - today - I'm saying goodbye to the Fastlane. Yup. Deuces, bitches. You gave me what I needed. Thanks to you, I didn't have to spend any money on a therapist... haha... Eminem talks about that shit. Why pay for a psychologist when you can tell the world about the problems?

Maybe I should say sorry, MJ. I mean, when you quoted me in your book, there was no way you could've known that I would make my money in the shitty a$$ racist state of Ohio. Hell, not even I knew I was going to go through the hell I went through. How could I? But I'm glad I did. It woke me up. It showed me the truth about this cuntry (not a mis-spelling). Anyway, I've got a conference call coming up...

Bye, everyone. See you later.

Edit: See me later.

I nominate this thread for The Fastlane Hall of Shame.

I really do hope you go out there and prove us all wrong.

They misinterpret my attitude as this or that, but they invariably miss the mark. The inescapable fact is that I am a minority in an extremely racist country, ran by white people.

You remind me of an african american guy named Stefan, that worked for me a long time ago, Because he thought I was jading him in some way, he wanted to fist fight one day, and went on and on well really screaming on and on about how great I have it and how he wasn't given the opportunities I was.

My response was simple: Yep your right, Its been so easy for me, I grew up in a Trailer, a singlewide, my dad died when I was 14 and left us with zero money, I had two jobs through high school, and worked 100 hours a week before opening my business. I had to come up with the idea, the money everything. Yep your right it was easy for me.

So Uber, your right the white man is keeping you down.. Or maybe you can just stop with the excuses.

Actions speak louder than words. A mind is a terrible thing to waste on hate, anger, revenge. Nor does hate, anger and revenge provide any sustainable motivation for success. They are very destructive. Put down the angry music that is using you for a chump. The lone renegade revenge play is only real in music videos and movies. It does not work in real life.

Get your head right first.

Peace! Don't let the door hit you on the way out kid.

Edit: Racism will only keep breeding hatred and strife. Take responsibility once in your life and stop blaming a straw-man that doesn't exist.

I appreciate your enthusiasm, but please calm down and think about what you are writing and how it could be read by others.

This is a professional board, there is no need for that whole street lingo and using the N word to express yourself.

I find it interesting that a man who actively blames racism for his life's challenges has posted some of the most sexist claptrap I've seen here in some time.

If I were being kind, I'd attribute it to a lack of maturity.
