Fastlane MUST READ Article – How to Get into Any Industry

[MikeC]

Wow.

Found this FANTASTIC article on Tim Ferris's blog. This is something every one should read. It'll tell you how to "hack" into any industry of your choosing within a few months – even if you have no previous knowledge on it.

Hope you enjoy as much as I did!

Great article. I always find it funny how people seem to like Tim Ferris and the work he doesn't, but don't buy into the "4 Hour Workweek" mentality. Mentors of mine have been almost repulsed by this idea, and I'm sensing it at the end of the article here.

FYI, the real author this article is Michael Ellsberg. His book (which was just released today) is about how self-made millionaires (and billionaires) educated themselves, pulling from 40 interviews he did. The book is called "The Education of Millionaires". I'll be reading that after Toilet Paper Entrepreneur.

Thanks for sharing. It's really a great article and a lot of it does work from experience.
Just a matter of picking a field where the law of effection works.

Definitely agree with SHHDlove as well, 4 hours a week definitely will not cut it especially when you're first starting out. Tim Ferris is probably a work-a-holic and has put in endless hours in promoting what he does.

Exactly what I was looking, after reading it, it actually reaffirmed my "game plan"
I will be getting into sales soon and will open my blog like I always wanted to. Great read, makes me feel good that I am on track.

Just checked it out on amazon, and it sounds interesting. However I found it odd that it was published the 29/9 and already gotten 19 top reviews, and some even told they erad it after being recomended by others.
Am I missing something here, is this a second edition?

Ditto on deSeingalt's reply. I was having thoughts about how to build a bridge over to the other side where the Superstars are at, especially taking into serious consideration Eben's advice on 'making a commitment to only spend time with Superstars on various industries' in order to begin building and speeding up my own personal growth towards the fastlane.

I've always seen people who got jobs and business deals that they would have otherwise if not for some friends of friends.

Great sharing! Thumbs!
