I have a lot of time for studying.

During my 6-8 hours on the road each day, (between appointments), I can plow through an audiobook.

The Millionaire Fast Lane is different.

this isn’t a “hit and quit it” kind of book.

It’s a paradigm-shifting, counterintuitive reprogramming system, with a built-in invitation to upgrade your behavior and lifestyle.

I can’t say it works, because I’m starting anew, from the slow lane, firmly indoctrinated.

Learning the Fast Lane language is going to require a lot of rewiring, focused effort, and math!

As I intently work through the book, there has been much pausing and reflection.

But today, in Chapter 18, I hit my first roadblock.

Listening to MJ describe the Wealth Equation on Audible, I had to rewind several times.

Then, I realized that I’d reached a point of limited understanding.

So, rather than moving on, I thought I would create a thread for accountability, which allows me to work through these new concepts, and how I might apply them to my business.

Perhaps it could be useful for others as well, for expounding on the formulas or to achieve neuroplasticity through repeated exposure to the material?

Anyway, I must go to my appointment (at my day job), but I’m looking forward to diving in!
