I’d like to welcome all new members to the group. Please share your personal stories so that other members have the chance to network with you and collaborate more quickly. You can also mention which communities you are working on and invite people from those circles. We don’t even forbid sharing external links to your work or professional activities. I trust that we are fair here and that we all come with intention, giving something to the group and also taking something from it. Just please always include at least one photo so the space feels more alive. Here I’ve filtered the intro posts of members who have already done so. Feel free to start building a connection with anyone who resonates with you. And since the group is not only free but also public, I also help extend your self-promo beyond these circles, for example by sharing it in my WhatsApp stories with my close contacts.

After six months in a small village of 200 people with my family, I felt it was time to step back into adventure and reconnect with people. Today I set off hitchhiking to Málaga with just €50 in my pocket. This is not about testing limits, but about exploring what is possible. My experiment is simple. Can I make it the 2 700 km by creating value along the way, whether through Skool, consulting, or the skills I carry with me? Today the road already brought me as far as Prague, and I am curious to see how far connection, creativity, and a bit of courage can take me.

What do you HAVE TO and what do you WANT TO do Today? Share your own self-reflexion with us. I have to take care of a few personal things before my flight to Málaga. I really want to hit the road again, start networking with people offline, and bring them here among us too.

When I was six years old, I wrote a poem, I love to work. I love to play. I love to do it every day. In my 46 years on this planet, I’ve learned that there’s a huge difference between being active and excited for life versus being a workaholic and DOING all the time. Some of the most difficult things I’ve had to learn how to do are watching movies and taking naps. If I had a single message to give to the world, it would be to slow down and discover yourself. From that point everything changes! Thank you for this community! I’m excited to be here! P.S. I’m a unschooling mom of 5 ages 14-24, raising our children has been our number one priority and we’ve made a million mistakes. Knowing my family and having relationship with each person is my heart‘s greatest joy.

When I tell people about my intention to leave mainstream social media, stay only on Skool, use WhatsApp, and once again start building connections in real life, I often hear the argument that I am simply replacing one set of social networks with another. Here I must disagree. Skool is not a typical social network, it is a community platform. And I believe this term will become increasingly common in the near future. Since not only on Skool but also in Nonbusy there are people who are either building their own communities or considering creating one, I thought I would share a few ideas that are useful to know or at least remember. Let us start with a simple diagram. On the X axis we have collective engagement (CE), a concept that most of you are probably familiar with. On the Y axis we have collective intelligence (CI), a term that is not as common yet, but one that I believe we will encounter more and more often. A collective field that emerges when individuals come together forms its own character, consciousness, unconsciousness, energy, and even traumas. For me this unexplored world remains a great mystery, but we can discuss it further later. For now, let us focus on the four basic types of communities. 1) MARKETPLACE The goal of this type of community is to connect supply with demand. Engagement is minimal. People come only to offer or request something. They do not feel the need to discuss, share personal matters, or help one another. As a result, no real discussions or collective intelligence arise. People arrive, get what they need, and leave just as quickly. A good example of this type of community is Yachts ⛵ on Facebook, which I acquired some time ago. This group generates 50 - 60 posts per day with 110K members, which might seem like great engagement, but it is not, because most posts are commercial in nature. The group, however, is full of commercial entities, brokers, and yacht owners, whom I can gradually connect over time. I use the group to monitor B2B activity in this market, and I invite active members with high-quality content to Yachtusiasts, which I am setting up as a Forum (see below).
