Hello ladies & gentlemen,
Like those that have come before me, I introduce myself today after reading The Millionaire Fastlane . The frameworks presented within the book resonated with me deeply. Required reading for everyone, IMO.
I have lurked a little and read a lot. There is certainly a wealth of discussion/opinion/knowledge and advice to be found here. And on the other hand, I wasn’t surprised to find stories resulting in this:
https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/houston-we-have-a-problem.45531/
Humans will be humans.
Here’s the CliffsNotes on my life up to now:
We're all guilty of mental masturbation. The ones that stop and take action are the ones that progress (and learn). We exist in a world with such abundance of content, that one could read/watch/listen their lives away without ever lifting a finger, which I am 100% guilty of. But as as my username eludes, I believe the treatment to most ailments I’ve read in this forum, is action.
It worked for me.

Humans will be humans.
Here’s the CliffsNotes on my life up to now:
- Early attempt at the Fastlane: I start a software consulting company to medical practices in my teen years. Gains traction but I’m thrown off course by various external factors and go to college. I exit the business with some success.
- Spend many years in college, study finance pre-med, travel a bit, work some time in health care consulting then return to college and study medicine. Minimal questioning of my existence at this point.
- Work as a physician, earn very good money, but totally servitude to the job & lifestyle. Earn more, spend more…
- Begin questioning my life and start reading “entrepreneurial” resources (including TMF ). Enlightened as to the errors of my ways, but not taking action to change. Mentally masturbating daily.
- Second attempt at the Fastlane: finally take action, quit wantrepreneurship. Attempt many online ventures, most fail, but I learn from each. Then a break through with traction in a e-commerce/FBA fitness niche (now doing mid 6 figures a year - a whole other story I suppose).
- In order to devote all mental energy to freedom, quit full time job as a physician (although continue working part time)
- Now in my 30's, I remain accountable to myself to take demonstrable action every day to progress towards my goals.
We're all guilty of mental masturbation. The ones that stop and take action are the ones that progress (and learn). We exist in a world with such abundance of content, that one could read/watch/listen their lives away without ever lifting a finger, which I am 100% guilty of. But as as my username eludes, I believe the treatment to most ailments I’ve read in this forum, is action.
