When you have a paid skool, can you let people in for free?
From what I've seen skools are either, free, private, or paid. Private means you have to sell on a seperate website, with paid you can specify a price. If you put a community on private, anyone can apply to join, and therefore you can let anyone in for free. Does that also work with a skool that has a set price? For example the top 3 contributors in my discord should get free access. I didn't create my skool yet because idk if private or paid makes more sense to do. Thanks in advance!

How I Went From Being Lost To Total Clarity
Hey Synthesizers, One of my YouTube videos got over 12k views. I talked about how to organize your life and a lot of people loved it. So decided to distill it into the most concise form to give you lots of value in less time. (3min read) You don't need to comment a "word" to access it. Here you go: 1/ Organize Your Mind: Before organizing your life, create order in your mind. What is taking up space in your mind? Write it down in a notebook. 2/ Clarify Your Priorities What are the highest priorities in your life? Mine are: - Faith - Health - Wisdom - Career Define what you value the most. This will direct your focus. 3/ Set Clear Goals Define your goals in: - 3 years  - 1 year - 90 days  - 30 days Example: - $1 million profit with my online business by 31.December 2026 - $100’000 profit by 31. December 2024 - $10’000 profit by 31. March 2024  - $1’000 profit by 31. January 2024  4/ Prepare For Obstacles Life will throw challenges at you, this is inevitable. Ask yourself: “What potential obstacles could I face?” Brainstorm potential obstacles. Be preemptive and strategize how you will overcome them. 5/ Define who you need to become The most effective strategy to achieve your goals is to change your identity. Ask yourself: “What kind of person do I need to become to effortlessly achieve my goals?” Define your new: - Beliefs - Habits  - Traits 6/ Time Allocation Identify your highest priority tasks. Ask yourself each day: “What's the one thing I can do to make everything else easier in achieving my goals?” Block out 3 hours in your calendar and do the main thing without distractions. Inspiration: The book "The One Thing" by Gary Keller. 7/ Optimize Your Energy Dial in your foundations for a high-energy life. - Good sleep - Clean diet - Daily exercise - Clear purpose - Good people These are the 80/20 of optimal energy, the rest is non-essential. 8/ Optimize Your Physical Environment Evaluate your physical environment.

what do you think about extrinsic vs intrinsic goal-setting?
YT Thumbnail colors responsible for 42 million views
Use these Thumbnail colours for more views - Green - Yellow - Blue - Orange - Pink - Purple We used these strategies to get more than 42 million views on our channel in 3 years. Never use White, Red and Black. It merges with YT UI and people skip that

Are you trying to eliminate the competition? 😂 Just kidding, but could you please tell me how you came up with this? Look at any Mr. Beast thumbnail ever and tell me Red and White are bad colors to use in thumbnails because they blend in with the background... No, they don't.

@Ashish Barui You said Mr Beast is a bad example which might be true. Then here's a screenshot of my youtube homepage 4 out of 9 thumbnails have a white background.
MrBeast's Editor's Biggest Secret (that you can use)
I've been taking Hayden Hillier Smith's (editor and editing consultant for MrBeast, Logan Paul, Sam & Colby, etc.) new editing course inside Creator Now ($300/yr). I wanted to share the core "ReTeNtIoN" hack aka storytelling method he employs to ensure highly engaging and retaining content. When editing, he combines these 3 essentials: - Story - Rhythm - Emotion Hayden claims these are the MUST HAVE ingredients to ensure good video. If a something in the edit does not contribute to one of these, he will remove it, no matter what. These 3 ingredients are best thought of as answers to questions: Story - "Where is this going?" Rhythm - "What is the flow?" Emotion - "How should I feel?" "An excellent cut should answer ALL of these questions" - Hayden Smith If a shot doesn't answer all 3 questions, cut it. - Story is CHANGE. - Emotion is what makes the viewer the main character, change is useless without feeling. - Rhythm is like a dial you can constantly adjust to cultivate variety (a mixture of both predictability and surprise). Here's the secret: Hayden uses the "triangle method" to keep his edit engaging. (image attached) The peak (top) of the triangle is the priority ingredient for a given segment. The bottom two ingredients are what is used to enhance the main ingredient. If emotion is the top for the next 30 seconds of the edit, you may have it be at a stressful part in the STORY, and use intense music with a RHYTHM of quick cuts to the music to enhance the emotion of anxiety. If the priority is story, you may have the dominant footage be the character speaking, however you will introduce complimentary music in the background and close ups of the characters face (emotion) and cuts that keep the pace of the story going (rhythm). You are not burying the story with a montage of happy music and jarring cuts. You are allowing the story to take main stage, right in the viewers face. If rhythm is the top, you may cut every 1.5 seconds to ramp up the pace, using music to compliment the beats, and then abruptly shift the pace down to make the viewers dialed in on the event you're holding onto.

thank you! would be great if you could share more thoughts from that course :)
Adonis School is making $150,000/ Month??
Adonis School by Hamza is a paid community with $500 joining + $99/Month. He is soon going to hit 1000 members ($100,000/m) + new members each month. I think the monthly churn rate is 10% (100 users being lost/month when they hit 1000 members). So, if 100 members join and 100 leave per month, the total revenue could be ~$150,000 ($100*500= $50k + $100*1000= $100k). I am making a yt video. Titled: "$150,000/ Month Adonis School Strategy." Do let me know what you think about my guess of $150,000/ Month.?

Your revenue guess could be accurate, of course without accounting for expenses. The video title could be improved though, sounds odd...
