Think about something important you’ve learned in the year. Did it come from: A. A mentor B. A community C. A mistake D. A book or video Comment A, B, C, or D and tell us the lesson. I'll start: C. A mistake. For years I tracked my personal finances carefully, but not my business expenses. Once I started tracking both with the same attention, everything became clearer. Your turn 👇

Do you take a real lunch break…or work right through it? I try to take lunch off, but I also love a learning lunch. I’ll put on a YouTube video on my iPad and learn something while I eat. It feels like a nice reset in the middle of the day. Today’s learning lunch video was this 12 Week Year video, and I think I found my new aspirational YouTuber.👇https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=258_G7k4IVg I'm curious about your lunchtime routine... What do you usually do at lunch? Vote in the poll and tell us what you watched or learned today!

It’s a good day to have a good day. Fill in the blank: I am someone who makes today good by __________. I’ll go first: I am someone who makes today good by honoring my top priorities with focus and calm. Your turn 👇

Then this quick tip is for you. On a desktop/laptop, you can drag and drop your communities to reorder them. Not on mobile, but on your computer, it works beautifully. This is a total game-changer if you are constantly visiting many communities! Huge thank you to @Lise Lively for sharing this with me! Here’s the short clip if you want to see it in action: Raise your hand below, 👋, once you have rearranged yours. https://us06web.zoom.us/clips/share/mbkPaobtQreIVWMMkvJmwA This should strengthen your flow on Skool!

and you are not engaging inside Skoolers and other Skool communities, you are missing out. I just checked my data. Last 30 days: 74 signups. 58 of them came from the Skool network. Not YouTube. Not ads. Not some complex funnel. Skool. This is the exact data I am now using to adjust my 12 Week Year. I originally thought I needed to grow YouTube to bring in new Skool members. That was the plan. Optimize thumbnails. Study retention. Push harder. It's been a brutal 8 weeks! But the numbers told a different story. I can add new members here, inside Skool, far more efficiently. I am in flow. It is working better than I expected. So now I see clearly: the time I was so worried about optimizing YouTube needs to be spent creating strong videos for my classroom. I can't wait for this section of my Skool to come alive! Those videos can still live on YouTube. But YouTube is not the end game. The classroom is. Community is. If you are on the Hobby plan like I am, that is okay. That is a financial decision. You do not need the highest tier to grow. You need time to collect data and clarity on what is actually working. Data removes emotion. Data sharpens focus. For me right now, Skool is the growth engine. Are you building where your numbers are pointing you?
