Hi guys. My name is Geoff and I am new here in this forum. Like most of the other guys here I went here after reading the book.

I have been reading up a lot of posts here in the forum and I have found a couple of gems in terms of principles and mindset. But what gets me is all of the people here posting their Fastlane Ideas.

They post their ideas and they just give a vague description of what they are going to do. What is the sense of that? How can others help you if they only have a slight idea of what you are up to?

I understand that people dont give out all of the information because they fear that someone else will take their idea and run with it.

So my suggestion is before someone posts an idea, they should try the idea out first, put it out there and see how it goes. Then and only then they should post their ideas here.

Because by that time you have already launched it and you are already ahead of the game in case someone wants to copy your idea. That way you can provide more information to the members here and in return you get more informative feedback.

I hope no one takes my post negatively, I am just like most of you guys here gunning to get into the fastlane as fast as possible.

Geoff
