Happy Sunday! As we step into October today, we are officially turning the page to a fresh month, and driving straight into Month 2 of our 90-Day Growth Challenge. Sundays are meant for reflection, resetting your environment, and planning your daily inputs for the week ahead. But before we lay down our targets for October, we need to celebrate the action-takers who set the pace in September! Here is our official September Community Leaderboard: 1.

Whether September brought you major breakthrough wins or felt like a long season of laying heavy underground roots, October gives you a clean slate. 3 Rules for October Execution: 🎯 Double down on daily inputs: Don't check the scoreboard every 10 minutes. Focus on landing your daily hammer blows, your daily outreach, content, and classroom lessons. 🏃 Keep your 3 pillars locked in: Money targets stay on the wall, daily movement stays non-negotiable, and phone-free family time stays protected. 💬 Engage to learn: The members who post their check-ins, ask sharp questions, and support others in the comments are the ones who build momentum the fastest. The board is wide open again. Every single spot is up for grabs. Kind regards, Coach Sam Gicheha P.S. The board resets, but your habits accumulate.

Yesterday we talked about a man who dug a well for 8 months. And covered it because he was scared to say the price. Some of you were brave. You asked. You said your price out loud. And some of you got a "no". Some of you got worse. You got silence. Let me tell you about my first "no” My salary was small. Rent was due. My wife never complained about money, but I could see it in her face at night. One evening I sent a message to a man I knew. I had a small furniture to sell him. I typed that message six times before I pressed send. My hand was shaking. He read it. He did not reply. Not even a "no". Just nothing. I put my phone down and I felt sick. I told myself, "You are not a business man. You are a teacher. Go back to class." I did not ask anybody again for three weeks. Those three weeks cost me far more than that one silence ever did. Here is what I know now. ❌ A "no" is not about you. ✅ A "no" usually means "not now" or "I did not understand". ❌ One silence does not mean you failed. ✅ Most people say yes only after you talk to them more than once. ❌ Asking one time and giving up is not selling. ✅ The follow up is where the money lives. People are busy. They saw your message while cooking. While in traffic. While holding a crying baby. They did not hate you. They forgot you. So go back. Not angry. Not begging. Just kind. "Hi, I know you are busy. I still want to help you with this. Should I send you the details?" That is all a follow up is. One kind line. TODAY — it is Sunday, so keep it simple: 1️⃣ HEALTH — move your body for 20 minutes. A walk is enough. Just move. 2️⃣ FAMILY — put your phone in another room for two hours. Then ask your wife or your husband one question: "What do you need from me this week?" Then be quiet and listen. Do not defend yourself. Just listen. 3️⃣ BUSINESS — go back to 3 people who never answered you. Three. Not thirty. One kind line each. Then write their names down. Hear me today. The money was never behind the first ask. It was behind the second one. Most people never reach it because one quiet phone screen told them to stop.

I have news. And my hands are a little shaky as I write this. Tonight I am speaking at an international webinar. I did not ask for it. My mentor Michelle O'Neill invited me. TONIGHT. 7PM Kenyan time. Link below. 👇 Let me tell you why this means so much to me. 3 years ago I was a high school math teacher. Small salary. Money finished before the month finished. Nobody invited me anywhere. I used to sit in the back of rooms and listen to people who were "somebody." I would think, "That will never be me. I am just a teacher from here." So I started digital marketing .Late nights. Slow internet. I was not doing it to stand on a stage. I was doing it so my wife would stop worrying. So my children would have choices I did not have. And then yesterday, my own mentor sent me a message. "Sam, I want you to speak." Hear me well, family. Nobody comes looking for the man who is still thinking about it. They come looking for the man who has been quietly doing the work. Yesterday on Day 31 we talked about your first product. Many of you said you do not feel ready. I want you to see something tonight. I do not feel ready either. I am going on that webinar with the same shaky stomach I had when I made my first sale. Ready is not a feeling. Ready is a decision. WHY YOU SHOULD BE ON THIS WEBINAR TONIGHT ✅ You will hear what is actually working right now in digital products — not old advice from 3 years ago ✅ You will be in an international room, not just a Kenyan room. Your mind will stretch. ✅ Michelle O'Neill's teaching is a big reason this community exists. Come and drink from the source. ✅ I am going to share something I have not shared in this group yet. ✅ You can ask questions live. A replay cannot answer you. ✅ You get to see one of your own on that stage. If I can be there, so can you. ❌ Do not say "I will catch the replay." You know you will not. ❌ Do not say "I am too new." New people need this room the most. ❌ Do not watch quietly and leave. Say hello in the chat. Be seen.

Better late than never. I promised you an interview with a member inside our community. You will love this interview . Inside we share - how much she’s made in 30 days of the challenge . - What she does to keep herself physically fit. - How she almost lost a relationship and recovered it. - Plus so much juicy conversation in there.

It is Monday. Let me take you back to my old Monday mornings. I was a high school math and physics teacher. Chalk on my hands. A small salary. My money was finished by the 5th of the month. Every Monday I made a big plan. This week I will change everything. By Wednesday I had done nothing. By Friday I was tired and ready to quit. I did this for months. Big plan. Big tasks. Nothing to show. Then one night I just got tired .So I made my plan small. Very small. Just 30 minutes after my wife and kids were asleep. That was all. 30 minutes. Every night. Even on bad days. That small plan is the reason I am writing to you today. A few days ago we said never miss twice. Then we talked about doing the work when nobody is watching. Today I give you the thing that makes both of them easy. MAKE IT SO SMALL YOU CANNOT FAIL. ❌ "I will work 5 hours today" → you do 0 ✅ "I will work 30 minutes today" → you do 30, and many times more. ❌ "I will run 10km" → you never start ✅ "I will walk 20 minutes" → you go, and you go again tomorrow. ❌ "I will fix my marriage this week" → too big, so nothing happens ✅ "I will sit with my wife for 15 minutes, phone down" → she feels it today. Small does not mean weak. Small means it happens. A small thing you do every day beats a big thing you do once. Monday does not need a hero. Monday needs one small step you can repeat 62 more times. YOUR DAY 28 ACTION (keep each one small): 1. BODY — 20 minutes only. Gym, a walk, or press-ups at home. Do not plan 2 hours. Plan 20 minutes. 1. FAMILY — 15 minutes. Phone face down. Ask your wife, your husband or your child one question. Then just listen. 1. BUSINESS — 30 minutes. One task only. Pick one: write one post, send 5 DMs, finish one lesson in the classroom, or put your product up for the first time. That is all. Three small things. Less than 90 minutes. Do not look for a big day. Look for a small day you can do again tomorrow. Big plans feel good. Small plans build empires.
