Hi all,
First of all, I'm really excited to have the opportunity to join this forum.
Thanks for having me and please excuse my English.
I'm David from Germany, 37 years old, married and living the "perfect" slowlane life as a manager in an international automotive company.
My slowlane journey can basically be summarized as follows:
About 5 years ago, I started to optimize my financial situation: Saving (more) money, investing into stocks and other small-scale investments following the common financial gurus' advice:
Save money + buy and hold + compound interest effect = richest man in the retirement home.
I somehow knew that this is not what I wanted from life, but only after finishing "The Millionaire Fastlane " a few days ago, my eyes opened (@MJ: Thanks)! While in the past I thought I was driving the fastlane, I merely succeeded with switching from sidelane to slowlane. "David 2.0" was born ;-)
Right now, I feel like my car is fueled up (I'm really motivated) and ready to go. However, the view outside the windscreen is foggy and it's hard for me to decide which way to go and which steps to take (analyze, paralyze?). Which idea for a business fulfills the five commandments?
Maybe my problem is that I'm waiting for an event (stroke of genius, business idea) after which I can start to frame the process, but finding an idea actually is the first step of my process...
In his book, MJ wrote that he needed to tune his "frequency" properly to identify opportunities (needs, pain points, solutions).
Does anybody know what I mean and if yes, how did you tune your frequency accordingly?
Thanks for any feedback.
Regards,
David
