Where does true joy come from? Harvard ran a study on happiness for 100 years. They followed 724 people from adolescence through their entire lives; tracking their health, careers, relationships, and overall happiness. The conclusion? Money didn't predict happiness. Fame didn't predict happiness. Success didn't predict happiness. Relationships did. The people who were happiest, healthiest, and most fulfilled weren't the richest or most successful ones. They were the ones who had deep, meaningful relationships. Not hundreds of shallow connections. Not LinkedIn networks. Real friendships. People who knew them. People who cared. This is why I built this community. This is why I encourage everyone to be present, on and off of skool. It's why I try and focus on the community just as much as the classroom. Yes, we're here to make money. Yes, we're here to scale. But at the core, we're here to build WITH people, not just around them. The wins matter. But the people you meet along the way matter more. So let me ask: How many people in this community do you actually KNOW beyond their profile? Think about it. Then DM one person you want to know better this week, or call them out here. You never know what will happen. Or tag someone in this community who's made a difference for you. Tell them why. Let them know they matter. Because at the end of the day, true joy doesn't come from the revenue. It comes from the relationships. (Click here to view a video of the study if you're interested, I thought it was very cool) I'll be spending as much time as I can today catching up on all the threads and reviewing skools

Go check the classroom. A mystery module just appeared. I'm not telling you what's inside. But I will tell you this — it is one of the biggest giveaways this community will do over the next year. Here's how it works: 1. First two people to Level 9 unlock it 2. Only two people can win this, ever!!! 3. The race started long before you read this Here's something you need to understand about how I move: The Business Builders Club is a team effort. And I believe in rewarding the people who help build it. Not with just shoutouts or thank yous — but with real ownership. Real stakes. Real revenue. This is one of those opportunities. No hints. No clues. Just trust me and move. Check the leaderboard. Check your level. Then get to work. Note: Don't even think about spamming without adding value. It won't work and you'll be disqualified. The real way to level up? Engage genuinely. Welcome members. Jump into conversations. Post a GIF. (or a lot of them) Have fun with it, and you'll be surprised how fast Level 9 will sneak up on you. Cheers, David 😎🥂

The New Year is approaching! Drop a few songs that defined your 2025! We are now in 60+ countries across 6 continents!!!! 🌏 Imagine a playlist that has everyone's favorite songs from around the world. That's what we're building here. So I wanna hear all of your favorite songs! 🎧 The songs you played on repeat. The songs that get you in the zone. The ones that makes you feel something every time. I've had moments where I was exhausted, ready to quit for the night, then the right song came on and I locked back in for another 3 hours. Music is fuel. Music has gotten me through more than I can explain. Late nights building. Early mornings with Zara. Moments when I didn't know if any of this was going to work. SO LET'S DO SOMETHING FUN 💃🏻🕺🏻💃🏾🕺🏾 1. Drop one song (or a few) that defined your 2025! 2. Drop another song (or a few) that are going to carry you through 2026! Once we get enough songs, I'll build the official BBC 2025 Playlist on Spotify + Apple and share the links with everyone. 🎶 Let's build this playlist together! Drop your song(s) below 👇
