Most of us have heard @Russell Brunson 's stories about the potato gun, working with Tony Robbins, and setting a world record for sales on stage. They're great! But my favorite story is when he's hanging Christmas lights, fingers going numb, moments away from ruining the holidays for everyone... because he failed. I don't relate to filming in Home Depot, befriending the top person in personal development, or speaking to a stadium full of buyers (not yet anyway). But I can relate to that heavy weight on your chest. That burden that somehow also makes you feel so hollow and empty. I can relate to being glad I'm alone in the silence of snow, the numbness in my fingers less painful than seeing the faces of everyone counting on me... everyone I've let down. You see, the hero has to fall... or they cannot be a hero. If Russell's story ended that day on the ladder hanging lights... he wouldn't be the hero of Funnels. He wouldn't be the person we're all so excited to learn from and study under. But the story didn't end there. He pressed forward... despite the weight on his shoulders, dismissing the pain of the moment, and determined to find a way. What makes you the hero of your story is the decision to rise above the fall. The commitment to get back up and keep moving forward. It's what makes someone like @Rosa Medina a hero as she chose to outgrow her small town of 10,000 and be a force of hope in a world wide community. It's what makes someone like @Jon Pakula , already a hero as a fire fighter, who chooses to never settle, and instead find new ways to grow and serve - a hero. It's what makes @Michelle Leith who broke her neck getting in a pool yet brings love and joy to this group; @Brandon Hunsaker who unites his parents in what's possible; @Bryan Switalski and @Noelle Switalski who are the world's greatest givers; @Lea Ann Perkins who is a mother to 8 children, and still finds time to serve a community of driven women; @Sys Savanh who's able to travel the world with his family while educating his young boys; and so many others in this community... heroes.

I want to give a shout out to @Joe Pomeroy ! He had so many fun and engaging posts 📫 that made this Skool party so much fun and also has allowed me to meet many fun people too 🙂 Joe is the life of the party 🥳 but also kind and inclusive too! Most of all he's engaged in a cause that is so important of finding harmony between your family and your business. He's got a podcast on YouTube called Forward with Joe Pomeroy which I'm excited about because I've been wanting to learn how to build a closer relationship with some members of my family 🙂 My family is so supportive of what I do but sometimes I get tunnel vision on the business and have wanted to learn how to develop deeper relationships with and make great memories with my family right now rather than waiting for that to happen "once the business takes off" I am grateful for @Joe Pomeroy and the light he shines 💡

If you haven't read the book, then it revolves around this question: "What's the one thing I can do right now, that by so doing will make everything else easier or unnecessary?" The hardest part.... is choosing only one thing. You see it's easy to say, "build a funnel!" as our one thing.... and maybe that's legit... but it's usually a copout to keep us from narrowing it down. Now don't get so micro as to say, "my one thing is to click my mouse on the browser window" What's the right balance? Personally, I find narrowing it down until I take immediate action is usually the key. With that it mind.... what's the one thing you can do right now (after leaving an awesome comment) that by so doing will make everything else easier or unnecessary?

GIF war GO! Get creative, make us laugh, and bring on the FUN!! Let's forget every stress of the last week and recharge for the joy of the new week!

I did a post a few weeks ago that got AMAZING responses from so many of you. It simply asked "What do you WANT?"...... Now, let's hear WHY. What is your WHY? (see the other post at link below) Feel free to include your "want" as well. https://www.skool.com/prime-mover/what-do-you-want?p=7e3448b9
