Folks doing Google Ads really should watch these videos. >> Watch video 1 on LinkedIn << It's the most boring looking video, but it went down well on LinkedIn. (That's me hinting that you really should watch it.) 2) Here's how to setup those columns: View: https://youtu.be/4Eql3ybEP80

Had to bring this up. As I was cold-emailing, I was using chatGPT to expand more ways to create a good message. A compelling one. But I noticed that from the messages it creates, I was only taking out a few parts of it because the messages aren’t just right. Honestly, in my opinion, in marketing you don’t just write a message and send it. You must feel it. I think it’s the feeling that we have in the writing that makes it compelling, not AI generated text. People can distinguish when... Read more

I do this every week with clients, and a few friends. From the book "The ONE Thing": What ONE Thing can you do that will make everything else redundant or easier to do? If you don't know what your ONE Thing is, then figuring it out is your ONE Thing. Let's go... Week Commencing Monday 14-Nov-22 What's your "ONE THING" this week? EDIT: Note from @MJ DeMarco : GoalSumo.com now allows you to set a Weekly Goal Focus, essentially a... Read more

Hey all. 22 years old, Dutch, finishing a marketing internship for my Bachelor. I have a good grasp of the concepts in the fastlane as i've read the book multiple times, I'm in high education etc it doesn't matter much I havent achieved shit. Over the last year finishing up my bachelor and running my first no sale shopify store I've learned I find ecommerce very interesting. The honest constraint I'm working with I don't have the capital right now to launch a proper brand the way it... Read more

After nearly four years of service at a software company trying to go all in on the crypto gaming space, I was laid off today, right before Christmas with a weak severance package. This turn of events has kickstarted my move to creating a multi-million dollar game company with just $5,000 of start-up capital. I'm a reflective and sentimental person, and I know that I could never live with the regret of not having taken this chance. Also, I cannot and will not go back to working for folks... Read more

Hi everyone, I'm Lee. I've been building online businesses and experimenting with different software and AI tools for quite a while. Like a lot of people, I eventually found myself paying for several different AI subscriptions and wondering whether I actually needed all of them. That led me to start looking much more closely at what makes a tool genuinely useful in a real business — whether it saves meaningful time, removes repetitive work, improves the result, or solves something I...

Saltwater crocodiles are some of the world’s most successful stealth predators. They first evolved as we know them today 80 million years ago (and changed very little since then). Having outlived dinosaurs, they’re one of the finest examples of “if it works, don’t change it.” I had the pleasure of seeing these creatures in the wild. And while I’m generally not afraid of wildlife, standing on a boat just a few feet away from a 18-foot (5-meter) croc does provoke primal fear... Read more

I'm starting this thread because, 1. I need accountability, support system, and feedback from those who are moving in the same direction becoming healthy. I did buy a jump rope. I am a beginner with physical fitness, so I am just learning about this, and the objective is my nervous system, anxiety, stress, and diet, and building up my physical body. It's probably my biggest weakness, since I haven't really paid attention to it much. I know I need to knock out the caffeine and drink more... Read more

In my recent article on AI Redemption and the big opportunity in this space, I neglected one avenue where you can capitalize on the AI revolution. Investing. The right AI investment is likely to generate asymmetric returns. $10,000 > $1,000,000. Invest in the space on the public markets, wait (Slowlane style) and hopefully a big windfall awaits. Your time horizon here might only be 10 years, which is more Fastlane-esque, vs Slowlane. The following video at the end of this... Read more

So here’s a discovery I’ve arrived at after roughly 1.5 years of researching and exploring. You may find it useful. Though fastlaners are probably aware of this. TL;DR: If you solely rely on someone else to teach you, you are — or will soon become — F*cking useless. 1. The birth of a new species​ Neural networks: for the first time, we built non-biological systems that can learn rather than just follow explicitly programmed rules. Intelligence has now transcended the... Read more

Hi everyone! I just finished reading The Millionaire Fastlane and it completely changed the way I think about money, time and building wealth. But more importantly — it made me act immediately. I am a working mom and X-ray techn from Roseville, California with very little social media presence. After reading MJ’s book I launched my first startup called RideNeighbor — a carpooling platform that connects verified neighbors for recurring commutes. My husband commutes to the Bay Area on I-80...
