Since May there has 430 posts in this feed. Four hundred of them were mine. I asked the questions, ran the calls, posted the playbooks twice a day, and answered everything. Most days the only voice in this room was me, and I am not going to keep spending my time and money keeping the lights on in a room that will not talk back. First, the thank you, because it is owed. Theresa, John, Cheryl, Knockout, Sharon, Kitoko, Jim, Tyler, Red, and the few others who posted their work, asked real questions, and answered somebody else's. You were the community. Every good conversation this room ever had, you were in it, and I will not forget that. I am not disappearing. I am still right over in the Camping Wilderness Skool every day, and if you ever need or want YouTube help, come find me there. That offer stands for the people who showed up here, and it does not expire. For the rest: forty one people joined this room and thirty five of you never said one word in four months. A community is not a thing you watch. It is a thing you put into, and until you learn that, no room you join is going to grow you. I say that straight because it is the most useful thing I can leave you with. As of noon today this community is closed and archived. Stay Rugged. Keep Building. Rodney

Four kids and four grandkids means this thing has to fit around a life, not the other way around. Anything I build that requires me to disappear out of my own house isn't worth having built. What would you have to give up to grow the way you say you want to? Is that trade actually on the table?

Camera comfort is not a personality trait, it is a rep count. Fifty men on a job site is easy for me and a room full of chairs still makes me nervous, I do it anyway because the discomfort is the price of the work mattering. Your first twenty videos are not content. They are training. Post them somewhere, anywhere, because reps recorded and buried do half the work of reps published. 🎯 Do this today: record one 60-second take and do not delete it. That is the whole assignment. ❓ What take number are you on, honestly? 👇 ——— ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theyoutubegrowthsystems 🌐 Website: https://ytgrowthsystems.com/ 👥 Community: https://www.skool.com/syncraticsystems-3823/about Today's full Your Advantage note is in the Classroom: https://www.skool.com/syncraticsystems-3823/classroom/05249325?md=242e404908b348068f2c8d3ad9add4c3

Two hours in a truck after a trip, tired, muddy, nothing on the radio. That's where I figure out what the video is actually about. Not in the edit. Where do you do your best thinking? Are you protecting that time or filling it with a podcast?

There's a strange split in my life. Half of it I'm responsible for fifty people's day, the other half it's me and a canoe and nobody to answer to. I need both of them. Either one alone would eat me alive. What's the counterweight in your life? What happens to you when it goes missing for a while?
