I've read the book one time and maybe listened to the audiobook 4 time. I like playing the audiobook on my daily commute. You have a nice reading voice MJ. Better than the guy that read Unscripted . I get something new out your books every time reread/re-listen to them.

A week ago, I posted that I read UNSCRIPTED (link to my review post). Well, I immediately jumped into TMF afterwards and have now finished that as well.

From what I can tell, many people read TMF first and then UNSCRIPTED , but I didn't mind going the other way, actually. UNSCRIPTED felt much broader in scope, hammering home high level insights about mindset, purpose, identity, societal pressure, value, and other lofty topics, in addition to entrepreneurship. TMF felt like a sort of zoom and enhance on the business subset of UNSCRIPTED , and it was actually really enjoyable to have details expanded on that were only hinted at before (e.g. MJ's limo website). Reading TMF second also felt like a great opportunity to re-review core concepts brought up in UNSCRIPTED .

I definitely got lots of value from both books, and I'll have to listen to both again a little later to see what I missed absorbing the first time around. I suspect I'll listen to TMF more often, now that I'm focusing on entrepreneurship, but if I encountered someone who seemed dissatisfied or lost in life, I'd probably recommend UNSCRIPTED to them, since I think it may benefit even those who ultimately would rather stay out of the fastlane.

Here is the thing, I have read many books and I have always lacked the committed to follow any of the suggestions in them. @MJ DeMarco plain language and down to earth approach has gotten in me. Read it once, now I will go over each point and create a plan to test the formula :smile2:. My lack of believe has not helped me over the years, so MJ's formula will be rigorously tested and I am sure he doesn't give a monkeys if I will do it or not. It is great book, based on how own experience and lots of reading, but until the theory is put on practice nothing will work. @MJ DeMarco I hope you have read Claude Bristol's book "Magic of believing" if not check it out.

Thank you for the effort bringing the book to life, despite all the odds!

I had The Millionaire Fastlane in my (very small) personal library for at least two years. Maybe I wasn't ready then to read it, but sometime in the past couple of months, I got sick of my situation and my eyes landed on the book title. Picked it up, read it, and promptly bought Unscripted . Making my way through it now.

I have read the book and it was a big eye opener to how "simple" it really is to build a business.

Don't get confused on the "easy" part. I only say that because of how hard it can be to start without knowing where to start. With the help of this book you can start evaluating if your ideas are any good or not. Should I try to pursue this idea or not?

Def. worth a read. Cheerios!

Read it before Unscripted , a really nice book. But you have to know the most important thing is not reading and reading and reading books 24/7. You have to ACT. If you do not act, someone other will act and do it.

Reading the book and, I must say, it is life changing. Things I have wondered about for so long have become clear. Have made important decisions on the basis of the book.
Thanks for writing this and not making it like thousands of others simple "mindset" books. This book is worth its weight in gold!


Thanks,
Velai

Thanks for the book. The CENTS lenses were the missing element I needed to read about to finally have it all clicked in place.

Read the book. Really helped consolidate background thoughts I had previously and bring them to light. CENTS/CENTS framework is eye opening.

TMF was also how I discovered the forum -> here is my little into
