Thank you for getting back to me, but that time is in the middle of the night here, so I won't be able to join. What a shame! If you change the schedule in the future, maybe I can make it then.
Anw, hope you all the best!!

7:30 Berlin time = 00:00 (Midnight) my time!

It is doable if you want to!

@ElDiablo bro?

If you get an L next Saturday, you do 500 pushups and send $20 to everyone that is on the call.
Stop losing. Start winning. Now.

 

[Omsubedi]

@Subsonic thank you for the tag and the call today. To be honest I was a bit unprepared. It was very productive for me and looking forward to attending next week’s call.

Challenge accepted!
I'm quite sure this time it won't be the case

I guess I needed to step back a little bit, and get back to basics.

I am sorry. Same this was happening to me as well. I joined late. It turned out the initial link was broken which I found after refreshing the thread after being timed out for 5 times (approximately 20 minutes), and where was a new link. Next time, I will visit the thread and refresh my web page to see if there is an updated link. Please do the same as well.

It's too hard. Give up. First sign of resistance, just fold up and quit.

Dude, make the call. Sleep later. Do it once. Then pattern it to a bunch of people in your time zone to do your own call.

@ZCP
Thank you so much for taking the time to offer your advice. I'll take my time to think about it.
It's incredibly helpful to have someone provide an external perspective.
Once again, thank you for your words; I truly appreciate them!!!

Get comfortable being uncomfortable. I just got back from a week long business conference. People flew in from ALL over the world. Traveling for 10, 15, 20 hours to get there. GO where you can meet people who get things done!

we are one day into the work week.
break your two commitments down into the base tasks / actions to get them done. what are those base tasks?

This time it is fairly simple, and I can "kill two birds with one stone".

I will create a post here in the forum to ask for feedback about what I'm trying to help others as it is targeted to business owners. In exchange I can offer my skills/knowledge for free in case my offer can relate to their busines or if I can solve another related problem given their situation.

In case I can't help someone directly here on the forum, I will create either a post on LinkedIn about how to solve a problem related to my industry (that can Leverage an Excel Spreadsheet) or short a short video on Youtube following a similar logic (although I've seen that entertainment with spark of educational content works much better in that outlet).

@Subsonic Thank you for creating and maintaining this accountability group... I would be very grateful to join this coming Saturday (and future Saturdays).

I'm happy to impart any wisdom I have: Blockchain/Crypto, Enterprise B2B SaaS, FinTech, Software Dev, Fund Raising, Language Learning, International Taxation (and Relocation), Remote Working and Managing Remote teams, Fitness (Lifting, Calisthenics).

To start, here's my accountability task for this Saturday:
- Finish coding website --> context: coding a website landing page in next.js with a questionnaire lead generator and email sign-up, and I'm currently halfway through.

As I said I will be absent on today's call cuz I am going to 18th birthday party (in my country turning 18 means becoming mature) of my best friend. He is one of my friends I go to the gym with and thanks to him I started exercising.

Goals I achieved this week

The most important goal is that I am working on my web application.
Last week most stable realse was v.0.4.4
Today stable realse today is v.0.4.9. Today i started working on v.0.4.10 update. I managed to realse 5 big updates in each update i fixed or added a lot of things.
I think this is W.

I prepared for a lot of exams, I had 6 in the last two weeks, I think most of them went well.
Another W!

Kali Linux is installed and ready to go. I had also configured named "owasp zap" so when i will be reaslising mvp of my web app i will be able to check security of my app.
Another W

FB ads campaign is caried out but I got zero sales and only one enquiry that could was turned into a sale.
It is L

Other things I didn't think I would do, but I did
Create my own GPT's and write a fastlane thread about it.
Little W

Even though it looks so good I feel I could have done a bit more.

What am I doing next week?
"Don't be afraid to set big goals" so I will set them. Like in the gym, I try to progressively overload my goals each week. So...

- The most important one. Finish v.0.4.X version of my app and start working on v.0.5.X When I finish v.0.4.X I will be very close to achieving MVP of the app.

- Drawing conclusions from the FB ad campaign, asking myself what went wrong and what I can change.

- Create another own GPT'S (Ads Campaigning Specialist) and plan my own campaign on Linkedin.

- Write a post on my thread about what I have achieved since the last publication of this article.

I wish everyone a good conversation today, I leave it to @Subsonic to decide if I deserve a W or an L.

 

[ZCP]

Better bring it today!! Or do some pushups! Let's F*cking go!
