Remember my post when @Sofiya Pierce threw down the gauntlet and challenged me to beat her 10K activities in a single day on Skool? Well... CHALLENGE ACCEPTED AND CRUSHED 💪 Final score: 10,540 activities 🔥 I was planning to do this Thursday, but then I saw a post about ranking and thought "let me just quickly check out these comments and engage with the community..." 3,000 activities later: "Well, I'm already this deep... might as well finish what I started" 😅 The Game: Spent hours going through posts and got completely hooked on book recommendations. Now I'm obsessed with "He Who Fights With Monsters" (currently on book 1, but I think I need the physical copy because this story deserves my full attention!). Maybe I discovered next favorite book series completely by accident?? Now, here is where challenge got REALLY interesting... I wasn't just mindlessly clicking (though Skool did tell me to slow down at one point ). I was choosing posts that caught my attention, and I discovered something about engaged communities. They don't just share niche content, they create REAL conversations about everything because they're actual communities, not just content dumps. People started DMing me saying they noticed I liked a bunch of their posts. These conversations are turning into genuine connections! Seeing what works in highly engaged communities gave me a treasure trove of ideas for my own community engagement Every challenge I do has a specific goal, but the surprise benefits are always better than what I originally aimed for. This one was supposed to be about hitting a number . Instead it became a masterclass in community engagement and genuine connection. Big shout out to @Sofiya Pierce you were right, this was tough but so worth it!

This community is about networking, so of course, we also have a networking challenge. This is our community quest for September. It is simple: 1. Continue networking 2. Let your AI take notes (Notion Meeting Notes) 3. Introduce the people you have networked with in a post Here is a template you can use, but you can also make up your own way of introducing people. With these posts, we all benefit from every networking call. We grow faster by sharing our networks with each other. That is the competitive advantage of this community. And you can also win individual prizes … The top 10 of the 30-day leaderboard will receive a mystery prize. The most engaged member will receive a 1-1 consultation with Luke to get a custom Notion dashboard based on their individual needs. When we reach the discovery, the mystery price will also include the first merch items of this community. Pro tip: If you network with someone in this community, both of you can make a post about the other. This is the only way we allow you to promote in this community. How many networking calls have you booked for this week already?

Today is @Sofiya Pierce birthday. 🥳 I still remember our first meeting where we geeked out about gamification. Back then, this community had barely 100 members, but we both understood the power of an engaged community working together to change the world. We are now at 300 members, and this community is in the top 1% of all communities on Skool. This is only the beginning, and I can only imagine where we will be next year. 🚀 Thank you for everything that you are doing. 🙏 Your work is highly appreciated, and this community wouldn't be the same without you. Let's blow up the comments for Sofiya with our favourite celebration GIFs. Happy Birthday @Sofiya Pierce 🥳
