95 days left in 2026 after today
I've seen this play out every single year for longer than I care to remember. Around October 1st two groups of people show up. The first group has already decided that the year is over. What's done is done. They coast for the holidays and somehow think their lives will change on January 1st with a bunch of promises they never keep. The second group looks at the previous 9 months and has an honest conversation with themselves. They DECIDE the year is not done and that they CAN do more in 3 months than 9 months if you're focused and committed. I was in the first group for decades. And relived the same year over and over again. The second group sucks, but it's where winning happens. It's where transformations happen. The only thing standing between me and the life I wanted was me. Not my partner Not my boss Not my past Not my friends Not me having the time (worst excuse I ever made) I've made every excuse in the book and I even invented a few. It was all bullshit. Lies I told myself because I couldn't admit the truth. The truth was that I said I wanted a better life. But I wasn't willing to do what was required. Period. This is me holding the mirror up and it will sting. Some might leave the group. There are over 1400 people in this community. Maybe 10 will decide they want to be in the second group and actually do it. The rest will stay in group one. It's the easy, safe and comfortable route. Or is it? Years ago I decided that group one wasn't for me. It was the harder route. 90-120 days of going all-in with zero excuses beats 14 years of playing small and stacking regrets. Which group are you in? Don't comment unless you mean it. Decide. Commit. Focus.

@Maxwell Cole Thank you, Maxwell. That means a lot. "We can't control the outcome. We can control the next step." That's the whole thing right there.

@Derek Nelson Glad it did. A lot of people never wake up to it. So what's the one thing you're pushing hardest in Q4?

๐Ÿ’ธ The money is hiding in your comments
I had a video with a ton of views. I felt great about it. Then I read the comments. Not one person asked me for help. They just told me I was awesome. Awesome does not pay. So I opened a small video. One I wanted to delete. That one was full of people asking me what to do next. Same channel. Same guy. Same face. All my views on one video. All my buyers on another. Here is the deal. You are guessing what to sell. I was too. Your people already told you. They typed it out. It is sitting in your comments right now. The problem is it is spread over hundreds of videos. So you never see it. So I built a thing that reads all of it for you. You point Claude at your channel and your Skool community. It reads the comments. It counts who asks for help and who just claps. Then it gives you a report. It tells you what your people want to buy. In their own words. With their comments as proof. Twenty minutes. You just sit there. No code. No downloads. No tech guy. If you can add a Chrome extension, you are done. Now the part where I sell you something. I am not going to. I put the whole thing in a video. The steps. The prompt. All of it. https://youtu.be/kL3Lb8qHl-Q Most people will not run it. They will read this and go back to guessing. If you run it, you will learn more about your audience in twenty minutes than you did in two years. And you will remember who handed it to you. Go watch it. Run it today. Not Monday. Then come back to this post and tell me what it found. What is the one thing your people keep asking you for?

@June Melia I wish I could put that on a billboard! Sometimes that's what it takes. Congrats to you for sticking with it. Pretty much everyone gives up after 12 months.

@Maxwell Cole AI feels like a hamster wheel when you chase the tools. So chase the storytelling. Tools change. Craft doesn't. Cinematic storytelling is what you said you love. That's your lane. The studio starts with one film for one client.

๐Ÿ’ก Step 0: Declare Your Idea (Do This First)
Before you watch anything in the classroom, do this first. Most people who join this community have the same problem: Too many ideas. I know because I started 26 side hustles in 14 years before I finally figured out what works. The goal here is simple: Stop spinning. Pick one direction. Test it for 30 days. Not forever. Just one idea to test next. Your Step 0 Action Comment below with this: I want to help [who] solve [problem]. Examples: โ€ข I want to help remote workers fix neck pain โ€ข I want to help busy parents plan healthy meals โ€ข I want to help real estate agents generate more leads It doesnโ€™t have to be perfect. It just needs to be something you're considering building. When you say something out loud, you force a decision. And decisions create momentum. Most people stay stuck because they keep researching instead of choosing. After you comment ๐Ÿ‘‡ Go to the Classroom โ†’ Start Here and continue with: Step 1 ๐Ÿงญ Pick Your Direction Thatโ€™s where weโ€™ll narrow this down and turn it into something real. Drop your idea below ๐Ÿ‘‡ Let's see what you're thinking. - Brian ๐Ÿ”ฅ

@Ben Reiter Not yet. Remember the road sign. Nobody explains how they buy the junk car. The how comes later, when someone asks. Take the line you've got and say it to three people who've been through a health crisis. Watch their reaction. That tells you more than any rewrite will.

@Jon Burton Now that's clear. A room where the people who handle mental health at work can learn from each other instead of starting from scratch every time. I'd start with one group, probably Mental Health First Aiders, and add the others later. Then message five of them and ask if they'd join a room like that. Their answers tell you if you've got something.

What would you put on a road sign?
People over explain. Someone asks "what do you do?" or "tell me about your Skool community," and we're off to the races. The background. The process. The calls. The DMs. This came up on the Mastermind call, the community call, and my one-to-ones this week. It's just a thing. You have to do stuff to get people a result. We know that. But people care way more about the result than the stuff you do to get them there. You've seen the sign on the side of the road. WE BUY HOUSES. Phone number. Clear offer. You either keep driving or you take a picture and call. You see these every single day: - Cash for Gold. - We Buy Junk Cars. - Keys Made. - Ice. (I love this one.) - Free Estimates. - Injured? Call now. - Cracked Screens Fixed Today. - Firewood $5. - Lawn Mowing. Call Jake. Four words or less. They all name the outcome. None of them explain how. Nobody explains how they buy the junk car. They just buy junk cars. There's a guy on Skool who helps kids with the SAT. His offer is "Get a 1550+ SAT score." Five words. I've looked at that page a bunch of times and I've never once read how he does it. If I wanted a 1550, I wouldn't care. It sounds ridiculous. But it truly needs to be that simple. When I sold elevators, I said "I sell elevators." When I was doing real estate with seller financing and all that, I said "I'm a landlord." Three words. A couple weeks ago I played golf with some strangers. What do you do? "I teach people how to make money on the internet." One guy asked if I was a consultant. Sort of, more like a coach. Then everybody hit their tee shots and nobody brought it up again. That's fine. If they wanted to make money on the internet, they would have asked. And if somebody does ask how, answer the question they asked. Only that one. As few words as possible. Then ask them a question back. Homework. Two questions. Put your answers in the comments and we'll all help each other. 1. What would you put on your road sign? Four words if you can.

@E T Ha! I'd join that community. The tortoise wins the race, by the way. When you land on your idea, come back and drop your real road sign here.

@Helmi Hasan This is the real one ๐Ÿ‘€ Your channel didn't stall because you were unclear. It stalled because you stopped publishing. Viral is an accident that happens to people who post a lot. What if the next 10 videos were allowed to flop?

@Robert Blomberg That's the Two Oranges lesson right there. When you're thirsty, you just grab one and start peeling. The best workout app is the one you actually open tomorrow. Proud of you for deciding.
