I recently connected with a visionary consultant (and a good family friend, Vanessa) and we talked for about 4 hours about various things. She gave me some good advice for my school community... Remember to be REAL. You need to bring authenticity to your community. YOU are the leader. You must guide the community's vibe and develop it into what you want it to be, don't expect the community to develop itself. Create a community that you want to live in. Andrew Kirby helped me find my large gaming audience's #1 desire, which is to improve at the game (Geometry Dash) and become a top player. At first, I thought my community "Geometry Smash" would just be a simple way to get solid income and I could automate it and not put that much energy into it because I simply don't care about Gaming. But Vanessa helped me realize that this community won't be successful if I don't put my real energy into it. She stressed the importance of creating a community that I want to live in. That's the ONLY way that I can create a successful community. At the end of the day, I am the leader of the community, I can't just automate it and be absent from it. I have to live in it, guide it, and develop it. In my community, I'm no longer my dumbass "KaiGuy" YouTuber character, I'm a real person. And the only way to be real in my community is to integrate my own values into it, because I couldn't give less of a shit about gaming. But luckily enough, after interviewing top players to help me with the course in Geometry Smash, I learned that improving in the game is a lot like improving at life. Most of the course for Geometry Smash is literally about your mindset, and so it's very easy for me to integrate a shit ton of self improvement teachings into this community, which makes me very happy. So instead of just focusing on gaming, I get to talk about self improvement.

After seeing 100+ beginners make $10,000 per month, I noticed they often follow the 7 Cs: A memoir by @Andrew Kirby the great 1. Consume What: Learn by consuming the content of experts. Why: Most great creators start as obsessive consumers. The quality of what you consume dictates the quality of your life. How: Consume educational content from people who have achieved the results you want. Avoid too much entertainment. Action item: Attend the Hormozi Q&As or watch the replays. / 2. Comment What: Leave helpful or thoughtful comments on what you consume. Why: “When starting out, you need to make people aware you exist” - Hormozi. Commenting is the easiest way to do this. When you create content, you compete with everyone on the platform. This is hard. When you comment, you only compete with the other comments of that post. This is easier. How: Add to the discussion with insights, compliments, connections, or help. Focus on quality over quantity. Action item: Leave comments when you have something to say. / 3. Chat What: Start conversations with people you're engaging with. Why: Relationships scale faster than content. It's easier to get people you know to listen to you then strangers. Chatting builds your network and creates future opportunities. How: DM people who you’re excited to chat with and start genuine conversations. Action item: Start building relationships and help where you can / 4. Call What: Talk to people on calls to find problems and deepen relationships. Why: The best way to find out how to help is to ask. Calls build trust, reveal problems and desires, and help you figure out where you can help. How: Ask the people you chatted with to hop on a call. Focus on connecting and helping, not selling. Action item: Get on 10 calls / 5. Case study What: Get proof and referrals by working for free. Why: Proof > Promise. Helping for free lets you build skills, get testimonials, and gain referrals. It’s the bridge to paid work.
