We're overwhelmed with notifications. Social media, email, texts, Skool, apps... What are the things you regularly check? What do you ignore? Do you have any "sacred" inboxes? Asking because I've been considering starting a newsletter, and I'm curious how people are about their inboxes in this community. Also just super curious. :)

Merry Christmas to everyone who celebrates it! And happy holidays!! 🥂 What’s everyone doing for Christmas today?? And what cool gifts did you get? I’m gonna be drinking some Baileys & hot chocolate, eating food, and playing with my dog! And I got an awesome leather bound journal. Really excited to use it to help me lock in my goals in 2026 and be in loving presence with myself. Also thinking of all the ways I can improve this community 🤔 got some fun events coming up soon! Including a Christmas party this Sunday if you’re local to Austin!

Some of you might have seen the friendly competition @Jorick Sikkes and I have going on in one of these threads. It's a race to see who can break through the floor of the top 500 (and then top 100?) first. Jorick's ahead and will probably beat me to the goal. But here's why that doesn't matter: We rise to the level of our competition. There is truth in the idea that a rising tide lifts all boats. That's a community-centric approach that I swear by, and strive to model in my own community. Yet the flip side of that same coin is the individual-centric "We rise to the level of our competition." If you've ever felt the grit in your gears, asking--demanding--that you try just a little harder, get back up one more time, or any of a thousand variations of "Not this day," then you'll know what I mean. Competition can be fantastic. It gives us an opportunity to improve ourselves, a goal to strive for, and an opponent against whom we can test ourselves. As long as it's done in good spirits, with a "We're all here to help each other" attitude, then it's healthy. Anyway, today I'm creeping toward breaking through the 800 floor. I believe Jorick's already below 700. Does it matter that he'll likely "win" this competition? Not at all. If we both come out sharper, better, and available to help more people, then we both win. Everybody wins. Where are you currently rising to the level of your competition—and where are you missing that kind of friction?
