Hi guys Just wanted to share a huge win and my thanks for this community! I stumbled across the community as a suggestion in my Skool account. I knew very little of AI Automation in general, and had no clue of what was possible until I started learning through this community. I am a business owner and I have no staff so it all comes down to me, and, as you can guess with previously having no automation systems... my time is really stretched. But the big thing for me... I have a wife and a 2 year old son and another baby on the way. I've been working so much that I have been missing out on them, and I feel like family is growing so fast and I'm letting it pass me by. Since joining the community 3 weeks ago, I have managed to streamline my client feedback process through an n8n workflow. A task that took me 2 days previously, now takes me a morning. I've got my weekends and family time back, and that means more to me than any number/monetary value. And this is just the start! Thank you @Nate Herk and everyone in this community!

I’ve been getting this question a lot lately. With AI automations becoming easier to build with AI, and OpenAI releasing AgentKit, people are wondering if n8n is even worth learning anymore. But here’s the truth: if I had to start all over again knowing nothing, I’d still learn everything I could about n8n. Because when you learn n8n, you’re not just learning one tool, you’re learning how systems think. You start to see how triggers connect, how data flows, and how logic turns into results. And once you understand that, you can jump to any platform in the world and master it instantly. You become tool-agnostic, and that’s where the real freedom lies. When you learn how to build workflows yourself, you also learn lessons that can’t be taught through flashy AI demos. You start to see what automations can really do, how reliable AI actually is, and what’s possible when you combine logic with creativity. You learn how to build systems that save time, cut costs, and actually work in the real world, not just on paper. That skill separates you from everyone else trying to sell the same thing. Because when clients hire you, they’re not hiring you to drag nodes on a screen, they’re hiring you to think like an automator. They want someone who understands the logic behind the system, can identify what’s going wrong, and knows how to make it better. The people who skip this step, the ones relying entirely on “AI agents that build workflows for you”, are like someone trying to sell a cake after only seeing a picture of it. They don’t know the ingredients, how it was baked, or even the flavor. So when they try to explain it to others, they sound the same as everyone else. But when you’ve actually baked the cake yourself, you can describe the flavor, the texture, the process, and that builds trust. And in this space, trust is everything. Automation is one of the few skills in the world that directly compounds over time. Once you know how to identify bottlenecks, map processes, and connect systems, you can apply that skill to any business or industry. And the ROI is real, recent studies by Deloitte and McKinsey show companies that invest in automation see up to a 30% reduction in operating costs and often double or triple their productivity within months. The people who understand how to build and maintain these systems are the ones leading that transformation.

I’ve been through that frustrating journey myself, facing countless obstacles, feeling stuck, and ready to give up more times than I can count. But after passing through a lot of tough moments, everything changed when I connected with the right person. That connection completely shifted my approach and mindset. Since then, my progress has been steady, and I’m finally seeing consistent results. If you’re still struggling, what’s the biggest challenge that’s been holding you back, even after all your hard work? Let’s open up and support each other, because sometimes the breakthrough is just one conversation or shift away. Drop your thoughts or hurdles below, let’s figure this out together!

Momentum doesn’t come from motivation. It comes from stacking tiny wins when no one’s watching. Most people wait for inspiration to start — but that’s like waiting for fire before you collect wood. Momentum is built when you do unexciting stuff: writing that follow-up, fixing that funnel, sending one more DM, improving your offer by 1%. Those micro-actions don’t feel like progress, but that’s what separates people who grow from people who restart every 3 months. Here’s the thing — you’ll never “feel” like you’re growing while it’s happening. You only notice it when you look back and realize you’ve become the person who does what others still plan to start. So stop searching for motivation. Build motion. Then the rest follows.

Welcome to the most comprehensive free course on AI automation and AI agents for beginners using n8n. In this 8+ hour deep-dive, I’ll walk you step-by-step through what you need to go from complete beginner to building and selling real AI-powered automations, no coding required. We’ll cover what AI agents are, why they’re a smart investment right now, and how to use n8n to build powerful workflows with a free two-week trial. You’ll learn n8n foundations, how to set up APIs and HTTP requests, and how to use tools like agent memory, multi-agent systems, and prompting to create scalable systems. We’ll also explore essential concepts like webhooks, MCP servers, and self-hosting, plus a ton of advanced strategies packed into easy-to-follow lessons. By the end of this course, you’ll have built over 15 working AI automations that you can use or sell. This video is insanely value-packed, so make sure to save it and come back to it whenever you hit a roadblock. If you’re serious about mastering AI agents and automation, this course is the only one you’ll need.
