Hello everyone (including @MJ DeMarco )
my name is Simon, I’m originally from London and have been travelling the globe past 25 years or so creating paintings very successfully with spray paints to music in minutes for tourists & local alike for a few months a year.
In my spare time I’ve created a kids project to empower young minds with a moral compass, good values, and awareness of diversity, that has nearly been picked up by Disney, BBC, and last year had an opportunity with Netflix.
On the surface from afar and even up close my life would appear fabulous,
I WAS WITHOUT REALISING IT,,, A SIDEWALKER JUST ONE PANDEMIC AWAY FROM IMPLOSION!!!
(Having just been banned from the Las Vegas Strip for creating crowds where I relocated just before CV19 the implosion has happened!)
A few weeks ago I saw a series of cool and funny ads for a marketing company on FB - i reached out to them to enquire about their services to help me promote my spray paint art online, booked a phone consultation to hear what they had to offer.
So, Miss X- sales rep rang- we spoke for almost an hour and after hearing the story of my colourful life she said as a good Christian she would feel not feel right recommending I give up the company she worked for $10K a month consultation fees (plus ad spend!) and I should check out the Fast Lane Forum and meet some like-minded people!
So I joined the forum and got myself a copy of Unscripted and LOVED what I heard- I served the elite British Parachute Regiment and MJ reminds me of no-bollocks (that means BS to you Yanks
) SGT Major who has been there, defeated the enemy and burnt the T-shirt, gives it to you without sugar, but has your BEST interest at heart.
Then I listened to The Fastlane Millionaire and LOVED that too.
So much of what M.J. is talking about, resonates right down to my marrow.
Micros do make Macros, the process is everything (as a wise Yogi said “Practice and ALL is coming”),I personally LOVE the ACT, ASSES, and ADAPT lesson and the chapter on launching a product (which I wish I’d have read when creating my kids' project) is worth the price of the book alone.
BOTH BOOKS = PURE GOLD.
And so much of what I heard woke me the fcuk up, humiliated me, and made me realise how much of a Side-walker I had been and a bit of a Slow-laner too!
I ate a belly-ache full portion of humble pie, again and again, and even for dessert too, then for breakfast and on and on.
But after humiliation, will come realisation, reinvention, hard work, and ultimately through self-awareness - success, I TRUST the process that MJ shares with us. (As we’d say in London - he’s the Guvna or as they say in Jamaica - the Don Gorgon!)
BUT in my defence (as we all have elements of each) I had lived a life of semi-retirement and contentment, made time to study nutrition, yoga (in India early 90s) and anatomy, had bought a home cash years back (gave it to my Mum and an allowance) and had developed a children’s media project that I still believe in it's potential to do global good even though it's never reach fruition- so there are certainly cells of Fastlane in my DNA!
SO I’m humbly here to ask if anyone can help me answer some of the technical questions- I to this day have not found the answers to - to free my ebooks from the Appleshere, keeping their DRM protection, and sell from my own well-marketed website/shopping cart, to crack the code of selling both my children’s ebooks (and my spray-paint artwork so I can not worry about paying my bills- now I am banned from the Strip) and focusing on the kids project)
As many beloved means of income has been taken from, I have no choice but to change, evolve and solve my present situation.
In advance I thank you for any help I get from you, either through direct conversations or indirectly from posts you are in that I read and learn from.
I humbled to be here and have this opportunity to learn, grow, and evolve.
All the best to all who read this with all the good you undertake
