How are you showing up in your business? Are you building on quicksand? Here on Skool, are you building a GROUP or a BUSINESS? (Big difference!) I learned the hard way on this one, but better later than never. ALSO -- wow -- @Lucas Reuterstig @Ben Sherry -- this was an amazing experience, truly a blessing to have reason to show up for this. Tagging friends who have already completed yours. CONGRATS for showing up! I have time set aside to watch your talks tomorrow and cannot wait to vote! @Emma Fábryová @Dani Rosenblad James @Sam Dunlop @Janet Little @Ayu Masruroh @Justin Yip @Tony Mulligan @Wolfram Grohnert @Semih Yalap @Natalie Duncan

My mom wants to see our talks on Saturday. She is SUPER excited. I have the Zoom link. Does she need to be on Skool to be there and/or to vote? 🤓

SKOOLx Entry Did you ever wish you had a higher IQ? No, seriously. Much higher. That question sent me down a rabbit hole involving: - a maths encyclopaedia, - East Germany, - a Möbius strip, - Barbados, - and a few pocket lions. 7:10 minutes. No edits. One take. If you're curious, come along.

I just did. I told myself I wouldn't vote until I watched every single talk and knew for sure the ones that spoke to my heart and felt they most belonged in the mix. This was a HARD choice. Truly! Wishing you all the best with this if you entered + if you didn't and have the time, I highly recommend checking out some of the talks + voting. It closes in just about 4 hours! - Voting Form + - ALL the talks are here (just skip the posts by @Ben Sherry and @Lucas Reuterstig --> they're there to encourage us but didn't add talks to be voted on)

I'm only 15 talks in (including mine 😅 so really only 14), and I want everyone to win. WOW, every single talk so far has been incredible! Truly! What's fascinating to me is that we are ALL winners when we show up to upgrade our skills. @Ben Sherry alluded to this in a post. But I truly feel it right now. I'm feeling an incredible amount of gratitude right now for this and happy for every single one of you who entered. It's genuinely humbling to be in such a passionate bunch of humans. YOU ARE ALL WINNERS. - @Doa Kaptan your talk was the FIRST I heard in here and dang was it good and resonant! You took an analogy I've been using for well over a decade and brought it to life in a way that I had never considered. PROPS for that 😅 - @Wolfram Grohnert this was SO smooth. I wondered if you do indeed have that 181. It would be funny, right? I made a note to learn more about the Third Mind State. Your experience in Barbados was a classic example of the concept, and the visual DROVE it home! 🚙 - @Kevin Pagan your famous people examples were SO good but also the baseball analogy -- everything felt so powerful and like it had legs to stand on. Great ways to use what we already know about to make your point. 🧠 - @Vernon Foster you are SUCH a funny guy but also the lessons you brought to the mix were so well done that I mean it sincerely that I'll have the "just last 3 miles" visual for a long time. Fun fact: I've never run a marathon but often run 5k races. So they are ACTUALLY 3 miles. That gave me a laugh! - @Justin Yip I know you so well and deeply connect with your way of showing up and human geekery, so your talk was an immediate favorite before you even got started. I know I'm biased 😆 but the topic was also like you made this just for me and it FELT that way. So thanks friend for making your talk for me! ha! It was great! - @Subhan Nair your presence was FIRE. I felt like you were used to being on a big stage already. And your non-hook hook got me. Clever cookie you are! Anyways, the point hit home too especially knowing exactly what you were talking about from riding around on a motorcycle in the seeming chaos of Brazil's streets that are actually quite fine! 🛵 THE CONNECTION is it! Beautiful! - @Natalie Duncan I will be thinking about this talk for forever. You really got me. The movements. The mission. The passion for it. The JOY of thinking on the cash-paid aunties water park and resort vibes was just brilliant. All of it. We can play our way to ANYTHING! - @Danny Hansen goes and makes a talk about learning English, sounding like it's your first language. DANG. So impressive! The bubble analogy was so well done and really powerful, but it was made all the more powerful by your control of the English language. Well done all around! Truly! - @Sungsoo Choi WOW. Just sharing a few words here, I am brought to tears again. I mean, I'm not over here bawling or anything, but it was so deeply resonant 🎵 that I'm feeling it all over again. Now THAT is spectacular. I will smile when I see your name around moving forward! I know this! - @Dani Rosenblad James goes hiking in this crazy canyon with MELTED SHOES and says "it is what it is". Like WHOAH. What a story! And then you managed to make it connect with your writing business so it can be a signature talk that brings that piece forward too. Well done, Dani! - @Semih Yalap "Cicero, nervous!" I'll never see Cicero the same again! 😉 But in a good way. This helps me feel empowered just as a gal who also feels nervous at times, knowing it's just about what comes after the + sign! Another one so memorable I think I'll remember it in the years to come. Amazing! And you were nervous... like Cicero! - @Craig Gauvreau Your talk was the third of the bunch that brought me to tears. I knew it was coming before we got to that part. I feel really strongly that your willingness to show up and do the hard things means something (be on the road and STILL do this, write a whole book, be there in the crazy crises of your working dynamics, etc.). I'd be really happy to see you continue this one and share the wisdom from your book! - @Sam Dunlop You piqued my curiosity so much about mana that I looked it up to learn more. This was a cool non-groan-worthy talk. But the groan part was funny. Nice touch! There were SO many nice touches that brought this truly to life! Congrats on this one, can't wait to see more in the future...! - @Jim Jenkins I hope you WILL be sharing this elsewhere and with the little comment about your prop too. ha! I felt strongly after I heard what you shared that we need more JIM-LIKE leaders in the world. You are truly a class act, and what you shared told me that you are someone to learn about leadership from. I hope that's what you're doing for a living! 😆
