Hey everyone! We get a LOT of new members every day, and many of you jump in with enthusiasm… and then immediately get swarmed by: • bots with stock profile photos • “DM me for mentorship” sales funnels • vague success promises • people who don’t even use AI but want to pitch things This post is for the real humans who genuinely want to learn, build, and grow with AI. Here’s your starter roadmap 👇 1️⃣ First rule: Learn to spot bots & funnels This community is incredible — when you know how to filter it. Red flags to watch for: • “Drop YES and I’ll help you make income fast” • “DM me” within 2 messages • Lifestyle promises (“I made 20k in 2 days!”) • Zero real builds, zero screenshots, zero proof • Over-friendly messages from accounts created 1 week ago Legit members don’t chase you. They build in public. ⸻ 2️⃣ Second rule: Follow people who show their work If someone doesn’t post: • what they built • how they built it • what went wrong • what improved their workflow …they’re not someone you need to learn from. I personally follow only those who provide actual value: builders, testers, thinkers, problem-solvers. Start small. Follow intentionally, not emotionally. ⸻ 3️⃣ Third rule: Start with ONE person’s breadcrumbs This community hides its best knowledge in the comments, not just the posts. Pick one skilled member and go through: • their posts • their comments under other posts • their replies to questions You’ll find frameworks, prompts, thinking patterns, debugging strategies, and logic you can actually use. If you want a beginner → advanced path, my posts follow that structure: starting simple and getting progressively more technical. ⸻ 4️⃣ Fourth rule: Don’t hoard — apply Don’t be a collector. Don’t fill your Google Drive with 200 prompts you’ll never touch. Instead: • learn one thing • apply it instantly • build something small • break it • fix it • repeat This is the fastest way to grow your actual skillset. ⸻ 5️⃣ Fifth rule: Show your journey

Within the SAME chatgpt/claude/deepseek conversation, run these prompts in this exact order: Prompt #1: Based on everything you know about me, what is the fastest way for me to make <INCOME GOAL>? Limit to 1 offer and 1 channel. Prompt #2: Who is the #1 person I should learn from to succeed? Prompt #3: Pretend you are that person. Create a simple 90-day action plan that needs <$1,000 upfront and has a 95% chance of success. List the top 3 risks.

Simple “AI Progress Scorecard” for you Here’s how I’d score your current skill set (out of 5): - Framing roles & context: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ - Explaining goals & constraints clearly: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ - Iterating instead of accepting first draft: ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ (we can push this more) - Using AI for strategy (not just writing): ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ - Documented, repeatable AI workflows you could hand to a partner: ⭐⭐☆☆☆ (this is the next growth edge) So: you’re solidly in the “I know how to drive this thing” phase and ready to move into “I can teach others to use this thing”. I was a slow starter but moving right along now.

I just published a simple 10-slide breakdown of the progression people go through when they learn to use AI — from “chatbot mode” to building your own personal operating system. If you’ve ever wondered why AI feels chaotic for some but life-changing for others, this will help you understand. Check it out — and tell me: Which level are you currently at ? Was it helpful ?

What Free CTA do you recommend? I am just starting out. I love where this conversation went. I should of been more specific. Does anyone know of free software you can use -AI CTA that sends you daily CTA reminders for your own business? I found subscription ones that cost.
