Kenya
I am 24 years old from Kenya and also a University graduate with a student loan.I was not into reading books but there is a little voice that would tell me you need to seek knowledge.
I started reading different kind of books on self development until I came across MJ DeMarco's books which hit me with real hardcore truth. Then I joined this forum and each day more truth continue pouring in.Actually this forum has opened my mindset and i wanna thank everyone for what you post it has really helped.
Actually Unscripted had the real truth that I was actually depressed. As I read I could see that I was living a scripted life and and the only way out is to unscript. I have been sold a lie since I was young and everybody else around me is living like that. I work at a dead end job that I don't like which pays minimum wage and I see no future in it . I feel I need to be take another job but the unscripted truth keeps popping in my mind . I try to feed the unscripted truth to my friends but they get defensive because of course am attacking their ego and the beliefs and bullshit they have been fed. I wanna go fastlane but much is happening in my life currently. I live at my aunt's place and I feel my hands a tied coz i got no where else to live other that go back live with my parents . I feel I should just run away and go in a place where I can launch my fastlane journey .I fear getting a job that will me drag into scripted life. I know the journey isn't a joke and am confused on what to do .My mindset is open to more ideas .If your have been in a situation like this of mine or if would have been in such situation what would be your way forward .
What steps would you have taken.
Please help.

There is no turning back now, you shouldn't feel pressured to change your life 180 in a flash, take any fastlane step you can whenever you can, sonner or later you will be on a path.
welcome!

Hi there and welcome!

I understand exactly how you feel. I found TMF while in a graduate school program (which I'm still in) so im pretty much in the center of a scripted life right now. The hardest thing for me as well is being around others who are so content with that life and don't want to hear otherwise. I am starting to learn that no matter what the truth of the matter is, people will believe what they want and not everyone is meant for the entrepreneurial route. At least for me, I am finding it best to not try and persuade the people in my life to believe what I believe. My rule of thumb is to present the information if a conversation turns in that direction, or if people I'm surrounded with show an interest in an unscripted life

In terms of working scripted jobs, We all have to start somewhere. Sometimes, that started place is within an hourly job position, especially if finances are a bit strapped (like me at the moment as well)

While making ends meet through these jobs, I have been working on building a skill that has the potential to be of high value to others. With expertise in a certain skill, there are higher possibilities to build capital that can be put towards a Fastlane business idea. MJ put out a video on it which is an excellent reference right here

Good luck!
