Hey, what's up, Ryan here.
I came across and read Unscripted a few weeks back, and I then just circled back and read MJ's first book, The Millionaire Fastlane. Both books are very eye-opening and needed in our culture of "sheep."
I've been a sheep just like the countless others out there for many years. After graduating from college over 10 years ago, I found a stable Corporate America job with benefits, I got married, I bought my 2 cars, I bought my house in the suburbs, I went back to school and got my MBA, etc, etc, etc...
Unfortunately, my Corporate America job has done just enough with periodic raises and promotions to keep me complacent and unwilling to take any risk related to escaping this painful scripted life.
And, although I'm now completely aware of my drifting and have escaped the sidewalk, I'm still trying to merge from slow lane traffic to the fastlane.
A couple of years ago a family member woke me up to the realities of aimlessly drifting through life. Since then, I've gone on an educational tear to learn (or should I say "unlearn") as much as possible. But, I haven't taken any true action to change my life and the life of my family.
I've never really had an official name for my newfound desire to escape my 9-5 office job, and with The Millionaire Fastlane and Unscripted, I finally do. I'm very thankful to have come across MJ's books when I did.
I realize that it's never too late to make things happen...and I'm finally ready for success.
It's time for me to stop "Action Faking" and start making a difference in the lives of others.
I'm looking forward to sharing in my journey with all of you in this forum over the coming weeks, months, and years.
Finally, I want to say THANK YOU for all of the great content you've posted on this forum!
