And do you need any help and advice? Do share what you've been up to. I love to see what you're all working on... Share your wins, or tell us your woes. 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗱, and usually when it feels SO hard, it just means that you have pushed that boulder so far up the hill you are just about to reach the nice flat peak before you can push it down the hill the other side! Remember, we can all come and push that boulder with you if you let us! Businesses were never meant to be run alone. We are stronger together! 💪😍

I really appreciate that so many of you are directly asking me for advice and questions in the DMS, which I do actively encourage because conversation leads to opportunities for everyone. HOWEVER, I am only one person with so many hours in each day and I literally cannot keep up. Because I want to help all of you and some of you are waiting weeks for a reply from me. I would really encourage you to make a new post here in the group with your question, and tag the most appropriate resident experts who is most likely to be able to be able to assist. (I'm @Adam McCollough ) That way our conversations are also open and available to help other people who might have similar problems, you will get your problem solved faster, and you will have the help and different viewpoints of 20 experts and 500 community members. There is a category already set up called. "Ask an expert". Please feel free to continue to send me DMS, I love hearing from all of you but I just want to let you know that this could be a much more effective way to find answers. I will also be adding an ask me anything live session every week in the free community tier when the tiers go live in the middle of this month, so watch the calendar for this and be sure to add it to your personal calendar as a recurring event.

Does this take me closer towards my goal? Yes. Why don't I outsource it and spend time growing my company like all the gurus would tell me to do? Because then I wouldn't have the fun of doing it. I'd been giving someone else the pleasure, and end up doing jobs. I don't like like payroll, admin, insurance, accounting, tax returns and the stress of running a bigger company, and trying to get more sales to pay someone else to do the things that I would rather be doing!... Sometimes freedom is as simple as being able to choose how you spend your day. Now it's quite warm so I'm going to go home and relax with an ice cream in the sunshine while I decide what else I'd like to do today. I also spent some time on skool this morning, wrote an article to promote my book, and spent some time fixing the pond filter. How have you spent today so far... And what's your version of success?

Either the last picture you took with context, or any random picture without. It's up to you. Or even a video.. I'm a visual person. I like to see stuff. Let's have a little glimpse into your world!

Real question: Have you started seeing people online say "Grab my Skill!" yet? 🙋‍♀️ If you use Claude, you will. It's everywhere right now. And I want to put my arm around you for a second before you click that download. ☕ Here's the part nobody tells you… A "Skill" isn't just a note. It can carry little hidden instructions — and sometimes tiny programs that actually RUN on your computer. Think of it like a recipe card from a stranger… except some recipe cards can quietly open your fridge, read your mail, and text your secrets to whoever wrote them. Most are totally fine. But you can't tell the safe ones from the sneaky ones just by looking at the pretty cover. So here's the rule, and it's a kind one: 🔥 Don't grab a Skill from just anyone. A real name. A real reputation. Someone you'd actually vouch for. Not a random viral post. 🔥 And when you do grab one — let Claude read it FIRST. Just say: "Read this Skill out loud to me. Explain what it does in plain English. Does it try to run code, read my files, or send anything out? Then adapt it for my business — and ask me anything you need before you build it." That one little step turns a stranger's mystery box into something that's actually yours. Clean. Safe. Built for you. We're not scared of new tools here. 💃 We're just the smart ones who check the recipe card before we eat. 😋 Have you seen the "Grab my Skill" posts yet?
