Today I got to meet @Kelly Stephens in person, and honestly… this is what makes THIS community feel different. We come from completely different worlds. Kelly builds AI automation systems (with all the many AMAZING things she has done and IS doing). I coach and teach Practical Emotional Philosophy. Different backgrounds. Different work. Different lanes. But this community...this Skool, brought us into the same room. And sometimes that’s all it takes. One coffee. One real conversation. One person taking time out of their already full day. I left feeling inspired, grounded, and with more clarity than I expected. Not from a big strategy session, but from real human connection. As entrepreneurs, it’s so easy to stay locked in. Build, work, create, repeat. But connection matters too. It calms something in us. It reminds us we’re not doing this alone. It gives us perspective. Whether it turns into collaboration, friendship, support, or just two people working over coffee again someday, I’m grateful it happened. Thank you Kelly for your time, energy, coffee, and conversation. And thank you @Joshua Palassis for building a space where this kind of thing is actually happening in real life. 💗

Hey friends, I want to remind everyone that the POINT of this community is the network and grow together so... If there is someone in my videos, in the comments, etc. that you want to meet and network with, but can't seem to get in touch - tell me. ☎️ MOST people in here are willing to network, make friends, mentor others, etc. Now... I can't promise their time will always be FREELY given haha, but it doesn't hurt to ask me. 👉 I'll do what I can to get you connected. Take @Steven Cruz for example - this man doesn't wait for permission to do anything, he just DOES IT, and I mean that in the best way. 😂 He's networked with many of you because he's HUNGRY and on fire for growth. A star pupil, I would say 🥹

I just hit a major milestone, triggered by a contract I closed this week. And I’m within $4k of hitting my most ambitious quarterly revenue goal yet, cash collected. A year ago I was commuting into an office every day, working overtime just to clear $100k on my W2. I had a desk treadmill and got written up because people were complaining it was too loud in the open office. I literally ate my pounds of fruit in a corner away from everybody else. Since I’ve been studying Steve Jobs’ story, it sounds very similar to what happened to him at Pixar. 🤣 I was miserable. I had zero tech background when I decided to go all in on AI automation. I just got really passionate about it, learned everything I could, didn’t stop and now build enterprise level software for construction companies. The nos got bigger and they hurt more. When you genuinely click with a client, you know you can help them, and they say no… that one stings. You can’t scale back down once you’re bringing in higher-value clients. It’s just part of the transition. I have a conversation today with someone I first talked to back in August. He couldn’t quite see the value then. We’ve stayed in touch, and now we’re talking about Claude and how I’ve been using AI. That’s a long game, and it’s worth playing. My team is doing things I didn’t even think were possible in some of these platforms. Having people who are really good at what they do and actually enjoy the work has changed everything, including what I can charge. Next week I’m paying $300 to walk into a multifamily and commercial real estate summit in downtown LA. I pulled the attendee list. Presidents and owners of $40M+ development and construction companies. My exact customer. I got the tip from a potential client who literally taught me the construction industry years ago. He’s now a VP, he’s going to be at that event, and we may be working together. That’s what going all in looks like over time. Every quarter I’m basically doubling. I’m still up at 5:30 every morning. Still showing up the same way I did when I had nothing to show for it.
