Finished Reading MJ deMarco's "The Millionaire Fastlane," and Continuing the Reading of His Book "Unscripted"

I heard of this book THE MILLIONAIRE FASTLANE (Crack the Code to Wealth and Live Rich for a Lifetime)" from one of the postings in my X (used to be known as Twitter) account, and it turned out to be a fortuitious experience. I have finished reading the book, and have since got his 2 other books, and am currently reading "Uncripted (Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Entrepreneurship)." No wonder these books are almost always never mentioned in many book review publications, as they're essentially against the prevailing system that so many of us cater into. Of course, I don't really know if this person actually exists, or it's all part of a scheme to narrate one fantastic sounding story in a book, or two. But, based on what I have read, it's worth having and reading, especially because it has its very unique voice of admonishing you to your senses. As in right now. So you won't be lulled in your current underwhelming existence in your efforts to become rich and create a wealthy lifestyle for the rest of your life. And not be caught up in your own very comfortable bubble of an existence, especially if you're here in the US where admittedly, so many things are taken for granted (so many are just so clueless they're so much in a position of advantage, but that's another topic, probably, for a future blog posting). I'm 57 years old, and haven't really misspent my life practically doing or accomplishing nothing. What I have read in the books, so far, fortifies what I have been learning and had even heard some of which even from my MBA teachers, thinking, pondering, and working on myself in my life and in my projects. This thing about highlighting process is something what my Logististics Management teacher mentioned over 18 years ago in MBA school -- I even remember his words on the primacy of logistics (you can use any other similar fancy word to fit your taste), and he has been proven right especially during the covid pandemic period. That professor, who's a member of my MBA thesis defense panel, was an executive of an American multinational company dealing with tractors mostly (they're a highly known brand) - and he actually reminds me of what MJ deMarco's description of someone who has chosen to be in that path that many of us are growing so tired of as it's really a slowlane journey to whereever you want to go with your life. Becoming rich, creating your own wealth via entrepreneurship is a long journey, and never gonna be a one time event, especially for those who decide they're going to be millionaires. It's almost boring a process, honestly. From my own experience. I have not much of a story to tell you except that my life's story is almost regular by most standards, I have way more similarities to most of those I identify myself with. Except that I am gay, married to a Harlem born raised Black disabled man of my age, an immigrant from the Philippines to here in the USA, where I turned 40 years old, and have since become a US citizen. In MJ deMarco's books, you'll find very instructive points to consider in your own life journey especially if you want to be rich. And to be rich fast, and not whiling away your time doing the slow and medium routes. He's lambasting network marketing, those compounding interest schemes in owning shares in the market, being employed and gaining not much from such entrapment. I haven't really paid attention much to using, mimicking, copying MJ de Marco's vocabulary, as I believe it's the thought process that matters. Anyway, I am thankful for the reminders I have gathered from his books to date, which I will note, re-cast in my own vocabulary, and make use with certain particular revisions for my own journey. And so, I invite you to join me too in my journey. Get hold of the two books, as they're not typically mentioned by many gatekeepers. It's important to read books, as it's very revolutionary act. Write your books, too, when you get the chance, which is going to be a whole process by itself, even if MJ deMarco says writing books is easy (I agree!), but marketing them is actually where the business is. It's by pursuing your own process and path to becoming the next millioinaire using the prescribed fastlane he describes in his books, where you will probably be able to afford to write books (and make millions from them, probably). And then in taking note of the process, and in taking plenty of action based on your reading experience. All the best in your endeavors, whatever they are.

First Time Radio Interview Done with Danton Remoto

My brother recorded this video on my first radio interview ever, which happened after I accepted the invite of Danton Remoto, and we did it on the birthday of my brother who recorded the video on his phone. This was about Filipinos abroad, and Danton probably thought that since I am based here in New York City, it's a good idea to hear about what I could share. My brother posted it also on his website, and I have since then downloaded it and shared it, all of which took so much time, in my YouTube page. I shared also the video to some classmates from college, in addition to some relatives. It was an exhilirating experience, and I was grateful for the opportunity. It came out to be 21 minutes, over than what Danton told me to be a typical 15-minute interview. Any thoughts on it? What do you think of it? Lemme know and feel free to comment. Thank you!

Some Updates of a New York City Transplant As of Today's Date

I wonder what was I thinking when I inadvertently took this phone shot while on the subway here in NYC.

I have missed sharing in this blogspot. I haven't posted here for sometime, and here are some updates:
1) I've moved again from Stapleton, Staten Island to Inwood in Manhattan. You take the A train to its last stop here in this borough. This is the same neighborhood where I used to live for at least 6 years ago. It's great to be back here, and am grateful for the opportunity. It's a great feeling sensing that there are a lot of artists living and creating their works in this nabe.
2) I've been gradually replacing the income I get from my part-time jobs with that of the income I make from my online businesses. This is really a fascinating process that I've been learning to do better each day. Nothing beats becoming an entrepreneur as my chosen path towards being able to do full time engagement as a writer and creative artist eventually while I am based in New York City (NYC). From so many experiences, I've figured out that this approach works best for me. After so many failures I met along the way, this direction has become so clear in my mind and sensibilities. Gratefully, I have embraced each one of these failures without self-hatred and recrimination.
3) As in the past 10 years, I'll continue to be based most of the time here in NYC, unless a business situation calls for me to move or travel, even briefly, to another place. I'll settle for local traveling only for now. It's a chaotic but really dazzling city to live and pursue my endeavors, and which city I've learned to like more each day I stay here. 
4) If you want to know some information as to what I am into in my private life, I have been actively pursuing polyamory since the past years of my stay here in NYC. Feel free to check out what the word means exactly. I will definitely judge you if you judge me, especially if I sense you're doing it and not coming from a place of love. My relationships have afforded me to experience first hand that these are wonderful, interesting, challenging lives we all collectively have and lead. We're actually just minuscule dust particles in this whole wide universe. As those of us have learned belatedly, our lives are too brief to be spent in very unpleasant situations most of our waking time. Life is hard (you know that, don't you?). Go, and do whatever it is that makes your heart throb and jump. And engage in it with passion and total desire.
5) I'm looking forward to retiring from doing part-time jobs. That situation is happening soon. If you're dreaming about that situation for yourself, too, then feel free to connect with me one way or another. Let's help each other retire from doing full time or part time jobs. For sure, the paradigm that at least 3 generations ago have believed on getting full time employment to help themselves accomplish their dreams has been switched to other, more updated paradigms these days. It will not really harm you if you do some switching now. Let me show you some much better options now. The thing is that you still need to take action, OK?
6) I've reached half a century last April this year. I didn't really grow older without accumulating so many lessons from my experiences. I'm grateful for all the compliments telling me that I definitely look younger than my age (check my Facebook profile here). It's really a combination of factors, including genetics, my daily supplements intake, my skincare regimen, plus leading an active lifestyle. Let me know if you want to know more about these areas in my life. 

Given all these distractions we face each moment of our lives, I wish all readers here the very best with their lives.


See you again!
