I'm a Doctor Who Has COVID-19. AMA

For those that know me, I'm a part-time ER doctor turned entrepreneur. I was recently diagnosed with COVID-19 and wanted to help dispel any rumors about the illness, etc.

Quick background

- Middle aged, absolutely no health issues (like really. None)
- Never smoker, drink only 1-2 glasses of wine (or good whiskey!) a month. No drugs
- Workout 2x day (lift and cardio) - #75Hard routine, for those curious.
- Part time ER doctor still because I follow @Vigilante's...

Graduating College & Pursuing the Fastlane

Hi guys --

I've recently read 'TMF' and 'Unscripted', and I'm stoked to join the community and learn from you guys.

A little bit about me: I'm a soon-to-graduate college student pursuing a degree in Computer Science from a top-10 university. I've always been a driven individual that's been motivated by getting the "best" job out there, but after working in 3 software engineering roles, including one at FAANG, I've concluded that Corporate America is just not for me. But like many of...

PLEASE HELP! What do you think of my website?

Hi everyone, firstly thank you for taking time to look at this thread and help me out!

To provide some context - I'm building a software application for linkedin users and I'm in want of a website that can convey all the necessary information that my target audience needs to make a decision to install my application.

My space is incredibly competitive, so I'm torn between creating a 'legit' or professionally built website OR simply using a webflow/wix template that gets the job...

What's Worse than Death?

With this post I am going for GOLD - grab a cup of coffee and let's go for a ride...

I haven't posted for a long while and there is a good reason for it - Although I had made a decent recovery before (please read my story HERE), I had slipped through the cracks again. Badly. As the saying goes...

Vigilante's "Mind Your Business" Radio Show

*** FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE NEW TO THE THREAD, I WOULD SKIP UP to the 2020 entry in post #519 (page 18) and start reading from there. The show was originally launched in 2014, but there was a LONG break and the early content is no longer available. Skip up to post #519 and catch up from there. Not much value in the old content before 2020! - Dave ***

We have a pretty fun announcement that I have been working on for quite a while. The project will involve several...

Where do you meet ambitious people?

Hey fastlaners.

I devoted myself to this road around a year ago, and I changed a lot. Relationships with people in my current environment don't satisfy me anymore. I want to create friendships with ambitious people who have a why, and not just living life to pay the bills and have drink in their free time.

My question is, where do I find those people??!! I live in Berlin and I feel like the vibe of the city in general is very loose and I don't have an idea where to meet those people. I've...

Canadian health care: Time to face reality

This opinion may not be popular among some of the Canadians on the forum, but I think it's time to call a spade a spade: The health care system in Canada (and especially in my province) is unacceptably bad and throwing more money at the problem isn't going to fix it. Politicians who compare our system solely to the one in the United States are misleading Canadians and deflecting from addressing our system's deficiencies, as there a number of health care systems in Europe and other parts...

F*ck Goals. Build habits

So you had that grand goal to make X amount of money by XXX, X amount of customers by XXX or have that perfect product by XXX?
You created that rigid plan to reach that fantasy goal(which you created arbitrarily out of thin air) and stick to it no matter what?
Then you didn´t reach that goal and felt miserable?

F*ck goals.
Enter habits.
Habits have no outcome-dependency.
You have control over are your habits.

Here are two habits that I´m forming

Software Engineer who is taking the exit to the Fastlane

Hi everybody,

I'm close to reaching my 30th birthday while I recently had the thought of "and this is how it should go for 40 years".
My current state is totally comfortable.. I have a job as software engineer, which is also an activity I truly enjoy. My job is flexible in terms of location and time and I have good compensation and nice challenges to solve in the job. I was already very interested in the financial system the last 2 years, so yes I can tell you a lot about index funds .
I...

Your Thoughts On Meditation?

I began meditating 2 weeks ago. The reason was because I realized my mind has been drifting with thoughts for a very, long time. I guess most of you know our thoughts are the starting point for how we feel throughout the day and consequently, for how we act.

I noticed huge improvements. I can't describe this improvement exactly, but I feel more "mindful", especially in social interactions. You become aware of your thoughts and stop them before they develop into a chain of other, negative...

The Fear Of Freedom (And Why It Holds You Back)

The fear of freedom

Here at the fastlane forum, We all have diverse sets of goals, But there’s one goal we all share (at least the people who stick around in the community). That goal is freedom. It’s why we read TMF and Unscripted.

Freedom is a seemingly good term. If you ask most people, they’ll probably say “Yeah, of course I want to be free”

I’m not trying to pick on anyone, or make fun of and insult jobs here, but that same person you ask about being free, probably works at a...
