Hey, my name’s Mohamed, I will aim to not make this intro post longer than necessary since I want to respect everyone’s time here.
Some basic facts about myself are that I’m 20 and a half years old, something I find purposeful and enjoyable is natural bodybuilding and fitness as a whole, I’m part of a big family with many siblings.
I first read the millionaire fastlane during the summer of 2022, it was recommended by a youtuber I was watching at the time who has been a great influence on my life so far.
Before then, I had only really read a few fictional books and 1 or 2 non-fiction books which were half useful, but when I started reading this book, I could hardly put it down.
I ended up staying up until 3-4 AM just reading as much as I could, excited at the potential of the path of entrepreneurship I saw ahead of me. It was as though a lot of the underlying questions which I didn’t even realise I had about my future and about money were answered.
That summer was tough (with a lot of time laying in bed feeling sorry for myself), but it was when I began sifting through potential ideas and analysing them using CENTD, and when I began developing with my current business.
Over the next year which I spent in highschool, progress was slow due to how much time school ate up, subpar time management and poor productivity and mental health and fortitude. I also realised that if I were to finish the next year of school too, then my progress rate would continue to be subpar.
Despite my parents (who dismissed my arguments with emotional grounds as to the exponential gains and greater efficiency of entrepreneurship as a wealth generating tool) REALLY urging me to finish school, I opted to work part-time while focusing on my business.
Or at least, that was the plan. It’s been roughly 9 months since the last school year finished, and my mental health, discipline, productivity and more deteriorated even further. I ended up spending more and more time distracting myself and having a slow pace of progress.
Despite the slow progress and inefficiency, I’ve taken some decent steps. The product I was developing at the time is pretty much completely finished and ready (after one last round of testing and potentially revamping parts of it. I’ve been working with e-mail marketing and sales funnels for the past few months (with slow progress on that front).
In order to have some extra accountability, positive peer pressure and to learn from others on this path of entrepreneurship, I’ve come to this forum as one of several steps to push my progress further.
Right now I’ve sent out an e-mail on visiting a local coworking-space/start-up incubator/entrepreneurship program in one, and I’m excited for where I’ll be pushing from here.
This post is getting long, so I’ll just mention some of the reasons I want to make sure I provide enough value to accumulate wealth:
There’s a lot more I could mention, but I’m looking forward to being able to tell more of my story and discovering the stories of others as I spend more and more time here.
I’m mainly here for the process threads/diaries (posting my own and learning from and supportint those of others). Call me out if I don’t create and post my own one!
Also, I’m impressed by what is offered as part of INSIDERS and see value in the unscripted telegram network, so please call me out if I don’t purchase INSIDERS as planned and if I don’t join the telegram network.
Looking forward to being here.

This post is getting long, so I’ll just mention some of the reasons I want to make sure I provide enough value to accumulate wealth:
- The suffering that comes with working a job I at best tolerate (at worst hare), and have little agency in, for the REST of my healthy years.
- The struggle and suffering my family id going through and having to compromise or even sacrificinh on a lot of the valuable things that would help my siblings out
- My little brother having to be bullied and brainwashed in the school system (I’ve taken and am continuing to take some steps, but the best I can do for his confidence and future is to get to the point where efficient homeschooling with tutors is an actual option)
- Having to compromise on my health and socialising and dating and on the things that would help on my overall self-improvement journey due to poverty and mediocrity
- So that any women I am with long-term and start a family with won’t have to slave away when we could be raising our family together.
- So that my children won’t be taken care of my minimum wage daycare workers and teachers that are negative influences on them
There’s a lot more I could mention, but I’m looking forward to being able to tell more of my story and discovering the stories of others as I spend more and more time here.
