Skoolology is officially 60 days old today. But a community isn't 60 days of content. It's 60 days of people showing up, trying things, asking questions, experimenting, learning, changing their minds, and moving forward. So today, we're not celebrating Skoolology. We're celebrating YOU. 🥳 And I have a challenge for us... 🏆 CAN WE COLLECT 60 WINS FOR 60 DAYS? Drop ONE win you've had since joining Skoolology. And before you say... "Yeah, but mine isn't really a big deal..." Nope. Not today. 😂 Big wins count. Tiny wins count. Messy wins count. Quiet wins nobody else knows about count. Maybe you... → Finally posted instead of overthinking it → Welcomed a new member → Tried something you learned here → Changed something in your community → Got clearer about what you're building → Simply kept going when it would have been easier to stop If it moved you forward, it counts. And there's a reason I want us to do this. What we focus on, we notice more of. When we're always looking at what's unfinished, what's not growing fast enough, or what we haven't figured out yet, we can miss something important: Evidence that we're making progress. Sharing wins makes that progress visible. But here's the really cool part... When you share your win, someone else gets to see it too. And they might think: “Wait. Maybe I can do that too.” THAT matters. Because healthy communities aren't built only by people teaching each other. They're built by people showing each other what's possible. So here's our 60-day mission: 👇 Drop ONE win below. Then find someone else's win and celebrate it. Let's see if we can fill this thread with 60 wins for 60 days. Big win. Tiny win. Quiet win. Slightly ridiculous but you're still proud of it win. 😂 If it moved you forward, it counts. Happy 60 Days, Skoolologists. 🎉 Now... WHO'S GOT WIN #1? 👇

I want to remind you of something today, because it's easy to lose sight of. You've done hard things. You built something from nothing, out of an idea and a hope and not much else. You learned skills you didn't have when you started, figured out tools that baffled you, taught yourself things nobody handed you. You pushed through your own self-doubt to keep going, more than once, on days you weren't sure you had it in you. You did all of that. And somehow, you still wonder if you're worth it. Here's what I want you to see. That feeling of "I'm not enough, who am I to charge for this," it isn't telling you the truth about your ability. It's just fear, and fear has a short memory. It conveniently forgets everything you've already overcome to be standing where you're standing right now. So when the doubt shows up, don't argue with it. Just look at your own track record. You've faced hard things before and come through them. That isn't luck, and it isn't an accident. It's resolve, it's yours, and it's the same resolve that will carry you into whatever comes next, including finally charging what your work is worth. The proof you're looking for isn't out ahead of you somewhere, waiting to arrive. It's behind you, in everything you've already built and come through. Turn around and look at it once in a while. So today, sit with this... What's one hard thing you've already overcome in this journey that you've stopped giving yourself credit for? Name it. That's your evidence. That's who you are.

Look who showed up in my Facebook feed today... @Jewels Sherriff and The Courage Collective! There’s something pretty cool about seeing one of our own out there testing, building, and getting her community in front of new people. This is Skoolology in the wild. 🔬😂 Jewels, you’ve officially been spotted. And now I’m curious... Who’s going to be the next Skoolologist I catch in my feed?

Took the Score Your Community quiz? This is the thread. Drop your scorecard in the comments. Haven't yet? Eight questions, about three minutes: https://skoolology.netlify.app/ The quiz gives you a Copy my scorecard button, so pasting it here takes two taps and a quick comment. 1) Add your priority area and the first move you're making this week 2) Search comments for others with similar challenges Builders working on the same area will find you in this thread, and that is the entire point of this room. A few things to know before you post: 𝗟𝗼𝘄 𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲. Our own community read low on its first pass through the framework. A score is a map of where to work, not a grade on you, and the builders who post honest numbers are the ones who improve fastest. Nobody in this thread is keeping score on you. The framework already did, and now we get to work. 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵 𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼𝗼, 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗱. If your numbers came back strong but your community isn't booming yet, it means one of two things. Either the room is strong inside and people can't find it, which is a Reach problem, and Reach has different fixes than Build. Or the grading was a little generous, which happens to everyone scoring their own work, and the capstone in the course cures it with one rule: evidence for every number. Post your scorecard and say which one you suspect. Both are fixable, and both are more common than booming. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗽𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰, 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗲𝘅𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆. 𝗔𝗻𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱, 𝗻𝗼 𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗶𝗻 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗱, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝘁. 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘆. You do need to be a member to comment or post. Some courses are in the private part, members only. So, share at whatever level feels right. The full scorecard is great if you're comfortable with it. If you'd rather keep your numbers private, one line does the whole job: "I scored lowest in Kinship, and I'm working on it this week." That's all the right people need to find you.

I smiled when I saw that you found us by following along. Thank you for being here, @Joyce Tyson ! I also noticed you're thinking about starting a community and exploring ways to earn income online. You're actually joining us at a really good stage, because you don't have to have everything figured out before you begin learning what makes a community work. One thing we talk about quite a bit here is starting with the people you want to serve and the change you want to help create, then deciding what kind of community, if any, makes sense around that. With your years of service and the work you've done helping others, I imagine you'll bring an interesting perspective to those conversations too. Take your time, look around, ask questions, and learn alongside us. We're glad you're here, Joyce! 😊
