Skool Games Closing Motivation

🚀

🔥

Hey All,

As most of you know, we have been competing in the Skool Games this month and the contest ends today at 5pm ET. The top 10 community owners for the month win a trip to Vegas to meet and train with Alex Hormozi and Sam Ovens (the co-owners of Skool) as well as the other top 10 finishers.

For most of the month we were hanging tough in the top 10, but over the last few days, other groups have been coming on strong and we just haven't been able to sustain enough sales of STU Premium. We currently find ourselves in 14th and would need a bunch of sales to make it back to top 10. While "it's not over until it's over", it's not looking good for us at the moment.

Winning the Skool Games is not something I was planning to go for, but we just started really trying when we found ourselves in the top 10. We had no ambitions to win, no strategy, no plan up until that point. Needless to say, a win would have been extremely lucky given those circumstances.

So, today as things wind down with the Skool Games, I wanted to share with you one of my favorite quotes. It's helped me through many trying times as a former athlete. This is for anyone who's jaded due to their job search, anyone who suffers from imposter syndrome, and especially those folks who are giving it their all and patiently waiting for their success story to be written.

“It is not the critic who counts; not the one who points out how the strong person stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the person who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends themself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if they fail, at least fails while daring greatly, so that their place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” - Teddy Roosevelt

Thank you to all of you for making this community amazing.

Let's go find some jobs!!!

All the best,

Joe
