How many here do faceless or that is your goal?

As 20+ year entrepreneur myself, I've been wondering whether to create a free community, free to paid or paid community only. Based on the stats of this community alone, I think paid communities work best. Stephen is pretty direct, and I hope this post isn't taken the wrong way - or at least, incites discussion. Looking at the stats - 85% of all the members on this board are Level 1 - Procrastinator's. That means they signed up, and then don't comment or interact with anyone on the board. That's a lot of people doing nothing, but the 8k member count looks impressive! Skool is set up in a way where you have to comment on posts, in order to upgrade your posting ability. So you'll see welcome post replies, "thanks" comments and unproductive replies to posts. I don't think it helps the community. Instead, paid members usually join either to download resources or to ask direct questions that they need answers to. The post quality will go up, as the posts will be super specific too.

I feel great right now, just finished my YouTube video. But, last night and earlier today I felt quite anxious. I've always been a bit anxious before I record, though the reason why has changed overtime. That resistance whatever it is, is still something you need to push through (if you want a personal brand). In the beginning it was about my looks, how I talked, my background, cameras, lighting etc. Now it's because a lot of people see my videos and I want them to be very good. I want to help people. But either way I'm anxious, but I've learned to live with it. I must deal with it, if I want to full-fill my mission and vision. Which is to help build a world where everyone has the tools and resource to reach their maximum potential. Mission and vision does everything for me, it pushed me past any selfish insecurity or anxious feeling that keeps me from helping my tribe. At each step of your content creation journey you'll hit resistance, tap into something bigger that gives you no choice but to overcome. A little anxiety is nothing compared the feeling of letting your people DOWN. Anxiety < Guilt

A lot of us are afraid to make mistakes because of what people will say. Or even worse, what clients might say if we mess something up. What if a new course doesn't live up to the promise if we move too fast? What if we release it before it's ready? and people complain? What if they get mad? Well... hope they do. You see its quite normal for people to complain, get short with you. And this is your advantage, not a weakness. It normal for people to jump on your failure, point it out, rub your face in it (not all people but you know who I'm talking about ;) You know what's not normal? moving fast to remedy all those complaints, dropping version 2 a week later to fix everything, setting the bar higher. I call it the "sweep the legs" technique. Moving with speed undercuts everything. People remember you more for how you respond and how fast you bounce back. Why? because that is NOT normal. - Dropping a sub-par course, NORMAL. - Customer complaints, NORMAL - Bouncing back from mental stress, NOT NORMAL!! I hate seeing people complain, or get moody on me. I sulk for 30 seconds and then plan the next release. I just aim higher and surprise them. I sweep the legs out from underneath them. I've learned in business, if you keep people focused toward a better future, you're fine. You're better than fine, you're unstoppable.
