I watched a video from @nicksaraev on first principles thinking, and it made me reflect on how I want to build this community. So I sat down and defined mine. Here are the principles we’ll train around: • Clarity > Fluency: Clear ideas delivered simply matter more than speaking fast or perfectly. • Communication = performance under pressure: Your real skill shows in meetings, decisions, and high-stakes moments. • Think first. Speak second: Decide on your message before you open your mouth. • Structure creates authority: Organized thinking makes you sound confident and credible. • Regulation controls delivery: If your body is calm, your message stays controlled. • Less words, more power: Say it once, clearly, and stop. • Practice > information: You improve by doing, not by consuming more content. • Real situations only: Everything we train applies directly to your work. • Authority is felt, not said: People judge your tone and presence more than your words. This is the foundation. Everything we do here—trainings, feedback, exercises—will come back to these. Because the goal is not to “speak better English.”It’s to think clearly, stay controlled, and communicate with authority when it actually matters. Credit to @nicksaraev for the inspiration on first principles thinking. Here is the video if you are curious: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOhndexmOj4&t=1s Which one do you feel you struggle with most right now?

I've just reached Level 2 in the community! Heck yes!! Today I went through Part 1 of the Mini Course. Breathing techniques have been a critical resource for me to stay regulated in all kinds of situations. I'm excited to try this out the next time I present in a public setting. As a student of yoga myself, I have found breath awareness to be a game-changer for my holistic wellbeing. I look forward to proceeding to Part 2 of the Mini Course✨ I am grateful for this knowledge and these resources here in the Mini Course.

Today I began the Mini Course by watching the overview video! I'm so excited to dive into the Mini Course and implement the knowledge shared there, one part at a time.

I just updated the categories and added: • Q&A ❓ • Daily Accountability Updates ✅ The goal is simple: → Q&A = solve real communication problems→ Daily updates = build consistency and track progress Because communication is not learned once it is built through repetition. This is also part of how I’m thinking about growing this community: Less theory. More real situations. More practice. Curious— Would you use daily accountability updates? Or what would make you show up consistently?
