At the start of this year I had to make a choice. I knew I had to be consistent and I knew I had to put my head down and focus on one thing. I spent two weeks literally just thinking. I came to two conclusions, focus on podcast advertising and short clip generation.. Or learn about this “new” thing called skool. I’m sure you can guess what I went with. I started my journey on skool as a growth operator. I had some small success with this and started to generate $ but it didn’t feel right. On the day of April 11 something clicked with the leaderboard system skool had in its main community. I generated 163 points that day just by helping people with features and different things kind of like a tech support. From that GIF was birthed like an angel from the sky. And now we’ll, it’s become my full time focus. I literally was prepared to go broke to make skool work for me. I struggled with my relationship. I struggled financially. But I knew it was going to work just out of my sheer will power and self belief that I had the right skills to make it work. Fast forward to today and I’m off to travel again. I’ve made so many friendships and connections that I’ll be reminiscing on as I take this flight out of Australia today. And I’d be crazy to not say that I get to do this without mentioning that every single one of you reading this post right now have contributed to my dream life. So here’s to skool and the lives it changing every single day. Much love, Ryan 🥷❤️‍🔥

I'm always on the hunt for a new book --> sci-fi to encyclopedias (jk haha)

I’m traveling this weekend and holy hell is the mobile app a savior. Been doin all my work straight from my phone for the past 3 days. The only barrier being how slow of a thumb typer I am haha Do you operate more from mobile or desktop?

I became a digital nomad in the last 2 weeks thanks to Skool... And life's been moving at about 200 miles/hr since. I got to hang out at Skool HQ, go on @Max Perzon 's podcast, meet some the May Skool games winners, mastermind with Ted Carr in Vancouver, and record a podcast with @Matthew Thompson in Vegas. As you'd imagine, that's not my typical schedule... At home, I was working 12-15 hours a day on my laptop. Eating every meal in front of my computer. But....I had a MASSIVE realization.... While traveling, I had significantly less hours to work, and so I had to eliminate all tasks that weren't mission critical. I even had to fire a copywriting client that was taking up more time than I felt was worth my retainer. It made me super productive...and now that I'm back to working more hours, the output is 5x what it was before I started traveling. Sometimes distractions are essential to hone in your focus on the right things.

Level 6 unlocked! 🎉 Feeling pumped and grateful for reaching this milestone. It's been an incredible journey of growth and learning.🥰
