I'm diving into the Fleet Strategy Framework and Evolution Engine courses, and realizing that the only limitation I have to success is myself. So, breathe and dive in to understand, then take off with the custom GPT, then delegate. Anyone else feeling this way?

Howdy - I'm new here, and happy to be. By way of an Intro.... What I have - I am very good at helping others create clarity with a little mischief thrown in. MISCHIEF is an acronym for me: Mindset Impact Strategic Catalyst Helping Innovative Entrepreneurs FOCUS. The focus can't happen until they uncover how they get in their own way, and break through that crap using honesty and transparency with themselves. I'm the mirror that speaks your words back to you. I'm not a coach. I act as a chameleon for entrepreneurs. What I want - What a loaded question.... 2023, 2024 and 2025 have all been transition years with adventures I never even thought I would take. So, the big goal I'm chasing is to uncover myself, embrace my MISCHIEF, and imagine how I can contribute to positive change in others, then do that. My word for 2026 is IMAGINE. What I need - Time freedom and expansion of my courage. Luckily, I have a full time job that is very entrepreneurial. 9 months ago, I became the CXO for a funded company as a W-2 employee for the first time in 20 years. This actually provides some of the time freedom I desire, since as an entrepreneur working my own business, I tend to do the obsessive, workaholic thing, and this position has afforded me a bit more structure to let go of some of that. Lesson Learned. My courage will expand as I create MISCHIEF content this year using my weekly container. Can't wait to contribute to this group and fulfill my daily goal every day I'm lucky enough to wake up: I want to have inspiring conversations with interesting people doing extraordinary things. I think I'm in the right place to accomplish that daily goal. Chat soon! MKJ

Hey everyone 👋 I don’t know if it is just me, but I feel like you are sharing much more detail in your gains now than when we first started. I love to see that level of trust building up in the community. It is Friday again, so let’s keep that momentum going. What did you move forward this week? I’ll be reading through them. Drop your gains below 👇

Hey everyone, first of all- big thanks to Kasim and everyone else who contributed for this amazing community! I actually joined here much earlier but was quite occupied from opening my skool notifications. Im excited to see how much has been going on here and looking forward to catching up with you all!!! What I HAVE (what makes me awesome): I never give up. Period. What I WANT (what are my goals): To be able to successfully develop and take any idea that I see can truly benefit society- and turn it, build it nto a business where I profit and society benefits. With as much automation as possible. What I NEED (what's keeping me from my goals): Networking with highly successful and ambitious entrepreneurs and working like they work, thinking like they think.

Let's be honest: there's weird gatekeeping that happens in business spaces where people assume you "should already know" what ROI, MRR, CAC, and LTV mean. Like there's some secret business school everyone attended where they taught you all the acronyms and what they actually mean for your business. Spoiler alert: most successful entrepreneurs didn't go to business school. They learned this vocabulary the hard way — by feeling stupid in meetings, by Googling frantically, by asking trusted friends what things meant, by piecing it together over years. Here's permission you need to hear: You don't need an MBA to build a successful business. You don't need to feel ashamed that you're still learning fundamental business vocabulary. So let's break down some essential terms in plain English and you have any other terms you think people should know, drop a comment and share! 🩵 ROI (Return on Investment) How much money you get back compared to how much you put in. Like spending $20 on groceries to make meals that would cost $60 at restaurants. MRR (Monthly Recurring Revenue) Predictable income you receive every month from subscriptions, memberships, or retainers. Like a gym's membership fees. CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost) How much you spend (money and time) to acquire each new client. Some clients find you organically (low CAC), others require significant marketing investment (higher CAC). LTV (Lifetime Value) Total amount a client will spend with you over their entire time working with you. Your favorite coffee shop doesn't see you as a "$5 customer" — you're a "$3,600 customer" over 5 years. Revenue vs. Profit Revenue is all money coming in. Profit is what's left after expenses. These are NOT the same thing. You can have a "$100K business" and be broke if expenses are too high. Vanity Metrics vs. Actionable Metrics Vanity metrics look good but don't help you make decisions (total followers, page views). Actionable metrics directly impact decisions (conversion rate, client retention).
