Most creators and business owners don’t have a work ethic problem… They have a leaky bucket problem. 🧠 The Strategy = HOW You Pour Into the Bucket Your strategy is where, when, and how you pour the water. Examples: - Long-form YouTube instead of random posting - One clear lead magnet instead of five half-built ones - Sending traffic to community before selling Strategy answers: - What goes in first? - What matters most right now? - Where is the leverage? You can have a bucket — but pour in the wrong place and it still won’t fill. 🔧 The Process = HOW THE WATER FLOWS Your process is the repeatable action that moves water consistently. This is: - Your upload routine - Your onboarding flow - Your weekly engagement rhythm - Your offer promotion cadence Process turns: “I know what to do” into “This happens every week without me overthinking it.” No process = inconsistent results. 🚨 Where Most People Get Stuck Most creators/online business owners: - Keep pouring more water (more content, more effort) - Instead of fixing the bucket They think: - “I need more traffic” - “I need to post more” - “I need a new offer” When really: - The bucket has holes - The strategy is scattered - The process isn’t repeatable 🔁 What Growth Actually Looks Like Growth happens when: - 🪣 The bucket is solid (SYSTEM) - 🧠 You pour with intention (STRATEGY) - 🔧 The flow is repeatable (PROCESS) That’s when: - Less effort creates more results - Momentum compounds - Burnout disappears Inside Next Level Creator Hub, we don’t just pour harder — we build better buckets.

"I wanted something that worked with my daily flow practices and something that kept me accountable to working from my higher self." I've bought SO many planners over the years. Passion Planner. Full Focus. Bullet journals. Custom ones. The fancy ones with all the productivity hacks. And they all ended up half-filled back in the bookshelf. But then I realized something that changed everything: Traditional planners are designed for task management. They're not designed to help you stay aligned with who you're actually becoming. So you write down your to-do list. You check off the boxes. You feel productive for a minute... but at the end of the day, you still feel like you're not making real progress on what actually matters. Because doing more stuff doesn't equal moving toward your goals. You need a way to check in daily and ask: "Is this action coming from my higher self, or am I just compensating for something? Am I creating from desire, or reacting to a problem?" That's why I created the Momentum Planner. I wanted something that worked with my daily flow practices and something that kept me accountable to working from my higher self. . 🌟 What Makes It Different Most planners ask: "What do you need to get done today?" 💚 The Momentum Planner asks: "What does your future self - the one living in your Land of Plenty - CHOOSE to create today?" Completely different energy. Completely different results. It's built on the Momentum Method framework - which means it helps you: ✅ Distinguish between creation orientation vs. problem-solving orientation ✅ Use your intuition to take the RIGHT action (not just more action) ✅ Catch unconscious patterns before they derail you ✅ Build momentum through alignment (not willpower) ✅ Actually finish what you start (because you're operating from your true identity, not forcing yourself) It has daily pages, weekly check-ins, and monthly reviews designed to keep you connected to your vision - not just reacting to what's urgent.

I'm not sure if this is technically a 'promote my community' post, but here goes: My community is for Expat Mums and I want it to feel like we're meeting for coffee, sharing stories and supporting each other. So in my classroom, I have a section called "Been There, Know That" which is basically a data base for all our collective knowledge and wisdom from the places we've lived. So it could be a good dentist in Amman, a hairdresser in KL or recipes we've collected along the way. 🧑‍🍳 This recipe is one of my sister's favourites. It's a flourless, sugarless chocolate cake. It uses ground almonds and dates for sweetness. It's more of a brownie texutre and is yummy with fresh cream and raspberries. My sister always cuts it up in to bite size pieces, freezes them and eats them as daily (reletively healthy) treats. I also make them into Santa's hats at Christmas! I have no idea where I got the recipe from, other than to say "a friend along my travels", which is why I decided to share recipes in my community.

After 40+ years of working directly with children, parents, and families, I’ve learned one thing for sure: Parents don’t need more theory. They need clear, calm, real-life solutions, right when challenges are happening. That’s why I created Be A Better Parent, a New Skool community supported by a game-changing parenting app built from decades of hands-on experience, not trends or guesswork. Inside this community, you’ll get: - ✅ Practical parenting tools you can use immediately - ✅ On-demand support through the app, right in the moment you need it - ✅ Calm, respectful communication strategies that actually work - ✅ Guidance based on real families, real kids, and real challenges - ✅ A supportive community of parents choosing growth over guilt 📱 The app brings trusted parenting guidance straight to your phone, so you’re never left wondering “What do I do now?”. It’s taken 2 years to develop this app and I’m so happy to offer it to the world now! This community is for parents who want: Less yelling More cooperation Stronger connection And a calmer home—one intentional shift at a time 👉 Join the Be A Better Parent community here: https://www.skool.com/beabetterparent/about?ref=f798d3fd17924db88be9fc87b0784c1e You’re not failing, you’re learning. And you don’t have to do it alone. ~ Celia 💛

Hey everyone! This is crucial if you want your message to resonate with people! Direction moves people. Detail slows people down. Leaders communicate the next step, not the whole staircase. We go over this and more together inside our COMMUNITY. Hope to see you there! Ivan
