1. Go check out 📚Navigating The Course to see how to get around and what's here. 2. Start with The Foundation. Concepts, folder architecture, prompting framework. Everything else builds on this. 3. Check in at the bottom of each lesson. Polls, discussion posts, other members working through the same stuff. Use them. 4. When you're ready to build real things join in on our Biweekly competitions and win some real cash. ⭐ Competitions Mega Thread 5. If you are wanting to dive into the masterminds, grab all the past templates, artifacts and resources. Upgrade and head into the The Vault for Premium and The Drawing Room (VIP) for VIP 6.

Two chances to compete, every month, on a set schedule you can plan around. ✍️ WHY THIS SCHEDULE Spacing them out this way means we can give tailored feedback on every single submission. Not just the winners. Everyone who enters gets notes on what worked, where it's weak, and what to do next. 🎁 WHAT WINNERS GET Along with the prize, every winner gets a 15-minute one-on-one with Jake. Use it to talk through your build, ask questions, or bring whatever else is on your mind. Two comps a month. Feedback on every entry. Direct time with Jake for the winners. Mark your calendar for the 15th and let's get to work!

making Foundations my own.
I have begun taking the foundations course. I watched every video, read every lesson, and tried to work it, but I have found over the years, and its also true here, that i learn in a different fashion than most. I understood conceptually most of what is in the course, but the problem arose that i could really figure out how to get started. like a roadblock. So, i decided i would put the entire foundations course inside of a folder system, the lesson map, the video transcripts, the text lessons. and then i used CLAUDE.md and CONTEXT.md, to give claude context on myself, who i am, where i am in life, what my goals are, what my aspirations are, how i learn best, my learning constraints. and trained CLAUDE to me by personal tutor for ICM. this has been working out fantastic, i got to use what im learning to create a system, that is better at teaching me, than i would have ever been by myself.
Clief Notes: Gems for starting in ICM
Inspired by a post by @Tyler Lucas - I realised that there are some real gems about how to get started with ICM that are in this community and might be hard to find for people who are new. So, here's a bit of a "getting started" Clief Notes ICM primer. First off, the classic from @Bas Rosario who explains ICM using a birthday cake: https://www.skool.com/cliefnotes/new-to-icm-icm-explained-with-a-birthday-cake?p=04ac5c73 He follows that up with a post about how to go from that to building the bakery: https://www.skool.com/cliefnotes/you-baked-the-cake-now-lets-build-the-bakery?p=e5c5dbe1 @Carla Bosteder also wrote a primer for us, explaining that ICM is AI workflows in a box: https://www.skool.com/cliefnotes/ai-workflows-in-a-box?p=58542a05 Need some help with all the terms and jargon? @Joshua Hubbard has you covered: https://www.skool.com/cliefnotes/18-terms-this-community-uses-constantly-plain-definitions-no-assumed-knowledge?p=ec670702 Need an ICM tutor? Check out the one that @Don Roy shipped to help you: https://www.skool.com/cliefnotes/a-foundations-tutor-for-those-who-need-more?p=b5403a30 https://www.skool.com/cliefnotes/a-foundations-tutor-for-those-who-need-more?p=4044e34b Or skip the tutor and build one that fits your own personalised needs - here's the post from @Tyler Lucas saying that he did just that (and that inspired this collection): https://www.skool.com/cliefnotes/making-foundations-my-own?p=c277d862
