I recently read this article from fastlaneentrepreneurs[dot]com. No. 6 really touched me and i've repented of repented. Excerpts below:
Deadly Sin #6: ENVY
In the movie, Wall Street, Money Never Sleeps, Shia Lebouf asks the rich financier, Josh Brolin “How much money is enough? What number is enough for you?” His answer?
MORE.
I believe MORE is ENVY.
Envy is a prescription for unhappiness because there will always be someone...

Looking forward to being a fastlaner
Hi. I'm new to the forum. I have read Millionheir Fastlane. If it had been available at the beginning of my 'life one my own' I would have done a few things differently. I have no regrets though because I would not be who I am without all of the experiences. I come from a ranching heritage and have been in or around the cattle business most of my life.
I have made and lost money in the cattle business, trucking business and oil business. Fortunately, I have made more than I lost. Currently...

are you preparing for the unexpected?
in this video this guy makes some VERY conservative assumptions, with some overly optimistic rates of return, leaving out things like housing transportation (tithing) taking care of children/ aging parents, vacations and so many other things, just between taxes, inflation and investing fees ends up ravaging over 99% of our wealth, id like your feedback on this.

One Trick Pony
Sometimes I wonder if people are looking too many directions to try and figure out a path to take. Not that it isn't important to evaluate the options but, at some point the direction needs to narrow down.

The Psychology of Entrepreneurship
Here is an interesting read.
First, let me tell you how I came across the article. It was posted by a former mentor/boss of mine. He had started one of the highest flying retail businesses in the early 1980's doing direct response marketing before that was even a thing. His life took a turn for the worst with the loss of a child. Through that turmoil, he turned to philanthropy to heal the void left by the loss of his child. In that window, the business went to shit.

Is Anyone Else Intermittent Fasting?
I have been fasting intermittently for awhile now with great results.
I basically fast 5:2 and really feel great right for the new couple of days.
Also have lost about 20lbs in the last couple of months since I've started it though that isn't really the main goal I had in mind. I just wanted to be more healthy and have changed my diet along with fasting.
Just curious if anyone else has been IF for any period of time.

Entering the Fastlane in 2018! Happy New Year!
Just some thoughts for everyone going into 2018.
Since it's Fast Lane, Rev Up Your Engines, and get ready for a wild ride!
A new year always means new beginnings, new projects, a new life, a new chance to reach your goal. It takes one project, one book, one invention to make it to the top.
Perfectionism can get the best of us, and we can worry too much about having everything perfect. We can find ourselves doing things over and over again trying to perfect things, waste time by thinking...

Book review/summaries = plagiarism ?
I know this is counterintuitive since a review/summary encourages people to purchase the book, but please bear with me.
Say I give a long review of The Millionaire Fastlane for instance, and tell people the most important concepts I learned from it, then put it on my site which has advertisements on it (=I'm making money off The Millionaire Fastlane) then shouldn't that be considered copyright infringement ?
What if I actually sell 'Review/Summary of The Millionaire Fastlane' for $2 ?...

What Are The Best Altcoins To Look Out For In Cryptocurrencies?
So with this boom of cryptocurrencies, I've become interested in trying to spot newer coins that have some sort of a competitive advantage/differentiation to the bigger players such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.
I felt having a thread where we can point these out to each other might be quite useful. Ideally the coins would be under $10 or out of the top 20 for market cap and have something different about them.
Anybody got any on their radar?

So this is an open call for everyone to share their "FTE" story, otherwise known as their "f*ck This Event."
A "f*ck this event" is an incident in your life that pushes you over the ledge of a SCRIPTED existence. It is a pejorative "I've had it!" or a "I can't live like this!" moment that screams it's time for you to change.

Maybe this would be better as a "progress" thread but I wanted to details some of my failures, successes and future plans for 2018 so that maybe someone just starting out can learn from them. Also, I have the flu and am couch-ridden so not much else I can do right now 
This year I tried a number of things which were failures for one reason or another but I will stick to talking about what I think will be most helpful, my little Amazon business.

Entering the Fast Lane in 2018! HappY New yEars!
Just some thoughts for everyone going into 2018.
Since it's Fast Lane, Rev Up Your Engines, and get ready for a wild ride!
A new year always means new beginnings, new projects, a new life, a new chance to reach your goal. It takes one project, one book, one invention to make it to the top.
Perfectionism can get the best of us, and we can worry too much about having everything perfect. We can find ourselves doing things over and over again trying to perfect things, waste time by thinking...

I read a great book over the Christmas holiday: "Work Less. Make More." by James Shramko. (He has some excellent podcasts too.)

So he sets up a simple buffer in his business which is to deal with any new opportunity by saying he'll look into it at the start of the next quarter.

Is there a good App for tracking remote employee time?
I'm just looking for something like a time card - they enter start and end times. They work with me directly so I am not worried about authenticating the hours, just an app that at the end of the week gives a break down of their hours.
Anyone have this problem and know of a solution?

Messenger Apps, Alternative Education, and More Digital Marketing Predictions for 2018
The digital marketing landscape is changing… again.
At DigitalMarketer we spend a lot of our own money on testing. We are testing tactics in dozens of markets including…
- Education
- Survival and Preparedness
- DIY/Home Improvement
- Beauty
- Finance and Investing
In 2017 we drove millions of clicks from paid traffic, sent 181,177,569 emails and generated 4.7 million unique pageviews to the blog.
(RELATED: The Beginner’s Guide to Digital Marketing)
As a result, we detect new trends in digital marketing months (sometimes years!) before they go mainstream.
Here’s what the DigitalMarketer team and I are seeing as we enter 2018.
I’ll go ahead and kick it off…
Ryan Deiss, CEO & Co-Founder
If the prediction below gives you déjà vu, that’s because you read the exact same prediction last year. It wound up being true in 2017, and will only continue to be even more true in 2018.
See for yourself…
Email will finally get some (more) competition.
Let me be clear… email is NOT dead. Every year some chucklehead proclaims a new app or tactic (Twitter, Facebook, Texting) will kill email. Email isn’t going anywhere just like direct mail is here to stay.
That said, in the same way email was a significant competitor to direct mail, I am seeing some “new kids on the block” (<< you’re welcome anyone over the age of 30) that threaten email’s dominance. Facebook Messenger, in particular, is an application I had my eye on as 2016 came to a close.
Facebook Messenger now gives you the ability to communicate both one-to-one, but also one-to-many. We’ve began testing the building of subscriber lists in Messenger and the upside is big. In the same way we are able to send offers, content and transactional messages (such as “Your order has shipped”) in email, we are now able to send these communications via Messenger.
But here’s the kicker… while these messages can be sent one-to-many, the CONVERSATIONS created by these mass communications can be picked up by you, your customer service team, or your salespeople one-to-one.
Pay close attention to this trend. Just as enormous retargeting lists have been built over the last few years (a prediction I made in 2015), massive subscribers lists will be built on apps like Facebook Messenger in 2018.
♦♦♦
Russ Henneberry, Editorial Director
As companies like Creative Live, General Assembly, and yes… DigitalMarketer continue to raise the bar in the world of alternative education — the wheat will continue to separate from the chaff.
While the typical self-identifying “internet marketer” will tolerate content delivery that is poorly organized, poorly produced and poorly delivered — the broader market will gravitate toward the players that take the execution of instruction seriously. Just as commerce, news and social interaction continue to move online to the detriment of incumbent models so too has the delivery of courses, training, certification and instruction.
Those of us in the alternative education business (you might call yourself an ‘information marketer’?) should take caution: To succeed in the mass market we must hold ourselves to the standards set by television, radio, print and yes… the traditional university
♦♦♦
Justin Rondeau, Director of Optimization
2017 was the year that ‘Growth Marketer’ became mainstream.
Sure, there were ‘Growth Hackers’ or whatever else you want to call them years before, but now the rest of the marketing (and business community) is on board. Side note: if you put hacker in your title – you’re a tool.
Okay now to get back on point: I think 2018 will be the year where growth strategies and procedures will be put to the test. Most of the strategies out there are being looked at as fact when most of the time it is theory sans execution.
At DigitalMarketer we’ve really started testing out a lot of the different growth strategies out there and we’ve definitely seen that they were created with a ‘perfect world’ mentality. As more people start building their business using these ‘growth’ strategies (really we’re all trying to grow and we should come up with a different label, maybe ‘growth catalyst’ or something) they will begin to see that a lot of the literature out there surrounding growth aren’t as insightful as they thought when they apply it to their business.
The idea of a growth team or a growth marketer is SUPER important for your business, but you need to contextualize it. I feel like 2018 will be a frustrating year for people embracing these types of strategies, but I urge them not to take their foot off the gas (and if you do get frustrated maybe stop listening to the growth charlatans that gave you the ‘PROVEN’ growth silver bullet).
♦♦♦
Suzi Nelson, Community Manager
In the opening keynote at this year’s Content & Commerce Summit, Ryan Deiss said something I’ll never forget…
“In the future, the words “brand” and “community” will be interchangeable. And no one will be able to claim they have a brand unless they have a community to go with it.”
YUP.
As DigitalMarketer’s Lead Community Strategist, I pay close attention to how businesses from a variety of industries are leveraging community to increase leads, sales, and loyalty.
…and I think Ryan is SPOT ON with this prediction.
Building community as part of your brand is going to be essential to providing a unique value to your customers that cannot be replicated by your competition.
Consider this article from the millenial news company, The Hustle.
In a candid interview with an unnamed employee of Rocket Internet – a company that makes its bread and butter from literally cloning other companies – it’s revealed that a strong combination of community and branding was the reason why copying AirBnB simply didn’t work:
“Community- or technology-focused companies wouldn’t do because it takes too much time and customer trust to make a lot of money. We tried cloning Airbnb, but it didn’t work because it’s so brand- and community-focused. Even though we had a staff of 400 staff in 15 offices within two months, it didn’t work.”
To make a long story short, communities are next to impossible to replicate if they are implementing with the proper strategy.
For example, there are hundreds of online communities for motorcycle enthusiasts.
From Facebook Groups…
…to forums…
But that doesn’t stop a brand like Harley Davidson from building a thriving community around their brand, creating a unique experience for Harley owners to arrange rallies and rides specific to the unique community that Harley has built…
Harley accomplishes this by strategically creating a unique community experience that members simply can’t get anywhere else.
For starters, they made the community exclusive to Harley owners and their friends/family, and charged for access so there is a show of commitment to the community…
Upon joining, members received a membership card and a commemorative badge and pin, so they can easily recognise other members of the same community…
They also get access to Harley-sponsored events, and can arrange their own rides with other members of the community.
That experience is very hard to replicate – and even if you could, the members who have built meaningful relationships with each other through the Harley community can’t be replaced.
You can’t replicate someone’s personal experience with a brand. They own it. It’s theirs forever.
Communities are a powerful way to make that personal experience an emotional bond that can last a lifetime.
So yes, I am stealing the prediction Ryan made earlier this year: branding and community will become so intertwined that it will be impossible to separate them.
Because building a tribe is that important to your business.

#1539 Solving the problem of community organization
Today’s guest is a San Francisco entrepreneur who discovered a problem that maybe you have. I know when I go to conferences, sometimes they want to do add me to a Slack group for everyone at the conference. It’s fun for the first day, and then it becomes a distraction from the other stuff I do in Slack. It doesn’t really work for me. Other times, they create their own app and I forget to go check their app or it’s not written very well. They’re trying to connect with the people at the event, send updates, last-minute issues or changes, and also allow attendees to get to know each other. Slack doesn’t really work for that. Facebook doesn’t really work for that. There hasn’t really been a product that works. Today’s guest said, “How about if we create something better?” And she did. Sharon Savariego is the founder of Mobilize, a software that allows communities to get organized. It allows you to reach your community members via email, if that’s how they prefer, text if that’s how they prefer. The whole idea is to make it easy for community managers to grow their communities and community members to participate without a big distraction to their day.

Gary from Gloucestershire in the UK
Hi Everyone.
I'm Gary from Gloucestershire in the UK. Listened to Unscripted (And re-listening). Just started MFL. I have wandered through life dissatisfied with my lot. Had eureka moments which fizzled out in to nothing, based on my own fear of the unknown and laziness. Even ran a small local business for 8 years which bombed, blamed it on the 2008/9 recession, failed marriage and other factors but a major part of that was me not taking ownership and being lazy in my process'. This led to...

My progress: creating a product
Hello, I'll try to make it short and sweet:
I had an idea driving home one day from work. Did some research on it. It didn't exist. It was an enhancement on an existing product. I research patents and nothing came up. This was in January.
Drew up some plans of the product. CAD drawings are being done by my bro. I'm working on the prototype now. Did some market research to see if I have a good audience for the product. Did a few inquiries with people that use the current version of the...

Content for email newsletters
Hi all,
On most websites, there's usually a "Subscribe to our newsletter!", and this is also a good way for companies to collect visitors' emails, which we can then use to send them newsletters to market to them monthly etc.
Problem is, what do you guys usually put in those newsletters, besides new products?
I was thinking if my newsletters are all about my products, it might turn off people?
