Hey there, I'm Scott from Sydney Australia.
Anyone that looks at my profile may notice I've been a member since 2012....this is my first post in 2024.
Talk about a slow starter. I first came across MJ and the millionaire fastlane , but managed to stay stuck for a very long time.
This is me finally taking some action and moving from a very long trial of the slow lane and into the fast lane.
The past 12 years have seen some progress and education, I've managed to start, build and successfully sell an ecommerce business serving school teachers. I would be considered successful according to my friends and family, but have always felt like it was not enough.
Now, my children have grown and become adults, and I feel like I've done them a disservice by not growing myself to a position where I can teach them the proper way to get out of the slow lane.
I'm going to dive deep over the next few weeks, re-listen to the books, learn where I can, contribute where possible and take the right steps toward being a positive example for my kids.
Looking forward to getting to know you all.
