Wannabe FAKE Entrepreneur:
1. "That shit is too hard!"
2. "What business can I start that is easy?"
3. "How do I start XYZ business with no knowledge?"
4. "That shit will take forever to start up!"
5. "I don't wanna think critically and strategically!"
6. "The solution to that problem is way too difficult to implement!"
REAL Entrepreneur:
1. "That shit is way too easy!"
2. "What business can I start that is very difficult to start?"
3. "I wanna start XYZ business because it requires a lot of skill and critical thinking"
4. "This is a good business to start because it takes a long period of uncertainty and work to get things going"
5. "This is a good business because its tests my skills to the max, its like playing chess not checkers"
6. "This is good, the solution to this problem is complicated as F*ck , it will turn my hairs grey

I'm writing this because a lot of my friends think like the first. Its F*cken ridiculous and i'm sick of it. Your chasing money when you do that, you are looking for the event, you don't wanna do the work and break a sweat, you don't want struggle, you don't want uncertainty, you want comfort, you want immediate gratification, you want to feel good now, you don't want to go out and find solutions. And what happens when you do that? YOU F*cken FAIL.
The more difficult something is, the more barriers to entry exist, the more likely you are to be a success and crush the competition and create value, its a paradox.
Part of being a REAL entrepreneur is choosing your battles wisely and going for the hardest business you can think of, the one with high barriers to entry. Not only that, but you want to CREATE BARRIERS to entry in your business that already has barriers to entry. Create barriers to entry in your processes, in your business procedures, in your business operations, create barriers to entry in YOURSELF as well, improve yourself day in and day out in anyway you can!
These guys think that just because something is easy, they can succeed and create value and make sales STFU!.:eusa_naughty:
This is also a RAVE because I admit it, i was the first, I was a wannabe entrepreneur. As FAKE as a F*cken moon rock for sale online.
TMF helped me think more strategically like a real entrepreneur. It gave me a good a$$ whopping and saved me a lot of potential time and heartache in future failures.
The five fastlane commandments really opened my eyes and woke me up. Its like I was asleep for ten years and MJ dumped cold freezing water on me while I was asleep.
Although the five fastlane commandments are very GENERAL, deep down inside they hold VERY COMPLEX applications in the real world whose understanding is crucial to real world success.
For example.
TIME: This made me think of automation, it made me think of complex supply chain management processes. it made me think of business efficiency.
NEED: This made me think of just how complex human desires are, how people change, how complex human behaviors are and the benefits of understanding human economic needs.
Scale: This made me think of finances and accounting, complex marketing strategies. business growth mathematics and strategies as well as organizational structure.
ENTRY: SEE Above 😀.
CONTROL: This made me realize that you can control something and not even own it. He who has control has the power to make or break things even if he doesn't own it! IT made me think about trust, it made me think about who I hired or who i didn't hire, it made me think about partners, it made me think about legalities.
So hopefully my post was somewhat refreshing 😀.
