How has MJ ruined your life?

[MR curious]

I wish MJ ruined my life when I was 14... not when I was 16.

he saved my life 2 months ago

Jesus, this is like a public hanging. It only takes a 3rd grade reading level to really get to the nuts and bolts of her actual intent. She's enlightened and expressing it in the only way she knows how using someone else's model of praise. Everyone talking about keeping things positive in mind when taking into account the lack of knowledge of those unaware of time lost, while at the same time viciously attacking someone trying to express themselves to a group of supposedly like minded individuals. Like a pack of wolves feasting upon one of their own.

Lol.. I totally agree. It's funny reading some of the replies in here...

yeah i was starting to think i was totally in the wrong, i wasnt saying nothing bad about mj

Hmmmmm,well, let me see if I can count the many ways MJ has "ruined" my life, because, oh yes, he has well "ruined" it to the point of my own happiness:

1. My mindset has twisted a great deal to the point that I no longer see the need to purchase useless things, but more so, the need to invest in assets over liabilities.

2. On such a note, for every thought in my head, whether it's an aspect of my business, a new invention by someone else, an investment, a business thought shared etc., I can now decipher it either as a. Productocracy or b. Consumercracy Blindness and use it to my advantage, whether in the form of self-education or just a simple observation.

3. In overcoming challenges of business, gaining proper perspective in what I'm doing and would like to get done in future, I am really overstanding the productocracy concept, loving it, but more so, continuously paying attention to the commandments in each decision of business to assure future positive growth, which I know is important in materialising the journey we are all striving for. I am paying A WHOLE LOT more attention to what value it can introduce by asking myself, how will this make someone else's life better? Will this be safe for customer's consumption? Am I ensuring my customer of product transparency? Etc. Etc. Etc.

4. ...because of the afore-mentioned in item 3., I'm also gaining additional future opportunities for businesses being birthed from what I'm doing and applying the same process of value-principles, the commandments and staying in alignment with productocracy, creating solutions for the masses.

5. The business model I'm following is more along traditional lines with food and beverage; however, I adore the opportunity to utilise technological methods alongside the traditional concept, and based on the principles of TMF & Unscripted , it can be successfully applied to both traditional and modern aspects of business and still guarantee success once all necessary actions are taken.

So, as you can see, MJ has pretty much "ruined" my life, he has "ruined" it to the point of an entire mindset change, he has "ruined" it to the point that I'm not only mapping out what would seem impossible to others, but I'm also taking the steps to put investments in place to see it through and make it a reality.

I have failed a great deal in my past, and I'm not mad at it, because I have learnt exceptionally valuable lessons, but, with the addition of TMF , Unscripted and the "ruin" that MJ brings everyday at the forum, along with the "ruin" that many of you beloved Fastlaners share, I can well say that I am so "ruined" that I just will be soon, within a timely manner of applying the processes, will be laughing all the way to the bank amidst my meaningful, empowering and contributing productocratic businesses.

Damn, am I "ruined!" Lol. Thank you for this opportunity though, I am grateful beyond immeasurable levels for this experience. I'm doing and thinking of the unthinkable, there's NOTHING better than that.

thats exactly how mj "ruined" my life, its because all the time wasted on meaningless tasks is just not as appealing any longer

My mom asked me what I was doing one evening a few years back. I said I was watching the Bulls game. She asked how much they were paying me to watch the game. I immediately turned it off.

What you're saying, without punctuation, is that you'd rather watch the Super Bowl than work towards your future. Not MJ's fault. That's your choice.

Well, if MJ hadn't written TFL and Unscripted , I wouldn't be about to quit 3 days in to a 'pay the bills job' because I'm wasting time that could be used to start making money for me and building a business that actually helps people.

Once you've seen the slowlane and what it does (or doesn't do), I suspect there is no (happy) way to turn back...

I just hope you know what you are responsible for!

Things I once found enjoyable now do seem to be a waste of time

Yikes, well I'm not sure I like that I'm taking enjoyment away from people.

Maybe I am ruining lives!?

 

[MJ DeMarco]

Pitchforks down.

OP has been banned 4 times and has new registrations deleted countless times. The landfill is litered with her rantings. In the 11 year history of the forum (you've been here 2) we've never given someone so much lattitude as this person, all of it warranted.

 

[AllenCrawley]

my post here https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/forum-engagement-discussion.84867/

was important for the dicussion

so you guys deleted it for no reason


so you are a bunch of fuking morons

your country is doomed anyway

ok ?

so if you don't want me to post intelligent things just fire me

fire me or shut up you fuking morons

Wrong. It did not belong in that thread. It was deleted because your post had zero to do with the topic of the thread.

How many times have you proclaimed you were leaving the forum only to come back? Well, we may just have to help you make that permanent.

 

[Dan_Fastlane]

clickbait? rant?

 

[Greg R]

Truth hurts sometimes...

 

[AndrewNC]

Done

Thank goodness finally.

These clickbait provocative thread titles Are no bueno in 2018

 

[ZF Lee]

Actually I believe a lot of us were already doing the above 1/4 through the book!
I got a pay raise a few days ago but I felt humiliated and disgusted instead.

Why?
You don't like extra money for good capital? Even if it is just a couple of a bucks increase, you may never know where it comes handy...

 

[ALC]

Indeed, it was my reaction but then after i sat for 3 hours telling myself : the f*ck i'm going to do!

The redpill is hard to swallow

 

[Raoul Duke]

the only people i know who can see the whole picture in any area are rational types , INTJs in most cases.

But man has such a predilection for systems and abstract deductions that he is ready to distort the truth intentionally, he is ready to deny the evidence of his senses only to justify his logic.

[BrooklynHustle]

Thank you. I thought it was obvious she was communicating "MJ wrecked my life in a good way." Surprising to see it taken with so much seriousness.

lmao, it's true

 

[JoshA]

Who needs punctuation anyways?

 

[Tanishatheangel]

I dunno if I've just read a completely different thing to you guys, but I sort of took this as the person joking about how they now see how stupid the Slowlane behaviour of others is that they used to do.

I don't think the person actually meant MJ has ruined their life, but more that they can no longer participate in time wasting behaviour because they now see that that time can be spent building a Fastlane Life instead.

you got it exactly correct, that was my original intention

I was too harsh earlier in this thread to you @Tanishatheangel

My apologies.

hey with my past mess ups who can blame you, its all good

 

[Iammelissamoore]

thats exactly how mj "ruined" my life, its because all the time wasted on meaningless tasks is just not as appealing any longer

...and that is really good, because in my case, I was just all over the place, but now, focus is a lot more important and more prevalent in my life, and this 'ruin' is one that no business school can ever teach, and for you, I can see it is helping you a great deal.

 

[Vigilante]

Damn it. I missed the end of my own countdown.

 

[AngryBird]

I wish MJ ruined my life when I was 14... not when I was 16.

I wish MJ had ruined my life 15 years ago.

 

[GMSI7D]

Imagine sitting next to her in the office... My head would explode. Literally.

don't laugh.

i was employed for years in many jobs in insurance companies.

there are only women in these jobs. At least in France.

this was a nightmare.

imagine trying to focus on your PC screen while women arround you are talking and laughing out loud about absurb women things : sex; clothes, the next bad boy on TV

this is insane. that's why i have never been able to keep a job in these conditions

the bosses fired me before i shut the door


.

 

[GMSI7D]

He deprived me of any shot at being a career victim. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!!!???

• Not starting life with a negative 80k net worth
• Taking Tangible Steps To my own goals
• Figuring out things myself
• Being accountable to myself only

THAT MONSTER!

this is interesting from my european point of view

you american guys are very aware of money, power, success

you have the right to bear guns, criticize people on TV and so on

we can't do any of these things easily in France . we can't say what we want, we can't buy guns like we want. we are over protected by the matrix. we are destroyed by taxes when we launch businesses

and so on.


so how will you use your freedom ?

this is funny that a french guy like me is searching for the truth , while you the free guys don't care about destroying the BS in your american society

while you have the possibility

this is beyond my IQ and understanding

.

 

[TheCrow]

well mj has pretty much ruined every area of my life, when my family is watching the superbowl i'm like that's 3 hours of your life that's wasted on people you will never know, when its the holiday season i'm watching all my friends and family max out their credit cards just so they can work the next year just to do it again, even when im at church (sorry God) we're just sitting their doing nothing, i know its spiritual and all but thats 2 hours we just sit and " i guess waste time???" i dont mean it offensively, when i'm at my grandmothers she and grandpa have worked saved and will never buy nothing nice not a single modern convience do they have, when peoples out black friday selling instead of seeing sales i see money taken out of my pocket to fund someone else's dreams, mj i'm sure there's other examples i could list, but you've totally wrecked my life and now i'm seeing all the wasted time that others are doing and saying " oh im just barely making it, WELL DUH IF YOU SIT THERE WATCHING THE SUPER BOWL you cant complain because that's your choice, why not be the one selling the tickets, sorry its just i think next month it comes up again and i'm seeing it from a new perspective i didnt have before

If MJ "ruins" my life this way, I will be grateful. There is so much of this I "saw" and felt was wrong but couldn't put my finger on it. MJ puts it right out there for me to put my finger on in his books. Thank you, MJ, for "ruining" my life. MY eyes have been open and now my mind recognizes what I was seeing. I am SOOOOOOOOO grateful!!

 

[ChrisV]

OP is making a joke guys.. she’s being facetious

Pitchforks down.
