While @Nicole Rojas and I will be out in Orlando at Disney World this week, we'll be checking in here to see what people are up to during a few of the longer lines! 🤣 1 - Are there any events you're going to? Shout 'em out! 2- Are there any key objectives you'd like to have accomplished by the end of this week? Let's celebrate wins and encourage one another! 3 - What big domino are you trying to tackle right now? Sharing here means other community builders might be able to help offer insight :) Don't forget to join Ethan Brooks and the ABR crew at the 100M Offers book club meetup on Friday - while I won't get to join this edition, I will be there for the following Friday! >> Click here to sign up to the event << and click here to add to your calendar if you wish! Watch the calendar for more additions from your fellow community builders! Let me know if I missed any events from great builders here in Austin that we should share!

We had an awesome time today getting together over at Kerbey Lane, and when you get together with likeminded folks, magic tends to happen. Here were a few things that came up throughout the conversation that I thought were special. 1- We all tend to know what we need to be doing, but for whatever reason we convince ourselves not to do it. 2- When you force yourself to describe your problems in a way that other people can understand, it can often coach you into the place where you need to be to solve that problem. 3 - Finding the thing that leaves your cup of energy full at the end of it is the most important quest you can be on. 4 - People sincerely crave the ability to get around other like-minded people. If you have an idea, you should just go after it and figure it out along the way. Create the space and focus on making it easy to engage and share. 5 - We need to try to rekindle that boldness that we had when we were kids. 6 - Ask more for forgiveness and less for permission. Yes, this means you are going to screw up a lot more things a lot more often, but you will also have more results than anybody else. 7 - The people that you look up to who are most successful are also the same people who have failed significantly more times than you have. We will be arranging another one of these coming up towards the end of September / early October. So don't worry if you missed this one. :) Stay tuned, more hangouts and learnings are coming!
