In 2019, I made a decision. Not a soft decision. Not a “let’s see how this goes.” Not a “I’ll try.” A decision. I told my wife out loud: “I am done letting fear, doubt, and my own self-limiting beliefs run my life.” Up until that point? I had started 26 different things. Different ideas. Different models. Different directions. Some made a little money. Most didn’t. All of them had one thing in common: I NEVER FULLY COMMITTED. Then I joined a $50,000 mastermind. I eventually upgraded into their $100K program. That’s insane money. And here’s the undeniable truth: The money didn’t change my life. The room didn’t change my life. The coaches didn’t change my life. The decision did. But here’s why attempt #27 worked when the other 26 didn’t: I picked ONE thing. One lane. One model. One focus. And I stayed. For 120 days straight I did the work. 50 calls a day. No bouncing. No “maybe this instead.” No new ideas. In 76 days, I signed my first deal. I lost that deal. Two weeks later, I signed another. 120 days after starting I collected a $7,000 check. It wasn’t about the money. It was proof. Nine months after that decision, I left my job. 18 months later, I was making 2.5x my corporate income. Was I smarter the 27th time? No. Was I more talented? No. Was I less scared? Absolutely not. I just stopped circling. That’s it. Most of you in here don’t need a better idea. You need to stop bouncing. You need a room. You need focus. You need someone who’s already done it. And you need to commit long enough to see proof. That’s what changed my life. Not motivation. Not strategy. Not hacks. Decision + focus + repetition. That’s it. P.S. 90-day sprint is live right now. It closes tomorrow at 10 p.m. Central. We starts March 1. If you want 90 days of forced focus, execution, and accountability... DM me or comment “ONE.” If you’re still circling… just be honest with yourself about that.

One of the biggest reasons people stay stuck is simple. They don’t know which type of online business actually fits them. So they spend months bouncing between ideas…trying a little coaching, watching a few course videos, testing a digital product…and never getting traction with any of them. Here’s the simplest way to think about the 3 most common online business models and how to know which one is right for YOU: 1️⃣ Coaching (1:1 or group) Best for you if you: - Like talking to people - Enjoy teaching or guiding step-by-step - Want the fastest path to your first customer - Don’t mind being on Zoom Avoid this if you hate being “on stage.” 2️⃣ Online Courses Best for you if you: - Prefer to teach once and let people learn on their own - Have a process you can break into steps - Want something scalable without adding more hours - Like creating videos or structured lessons Avoid this if you struggle to organize your thoughts. 3️⃣ Digital Products (PDFs, templates, guides) Best for you if you: - Want something simple and fast to launch - Prefer writing over talking - Have repeatable knowledge you can package - Don’t want to be on camera Avoid this if you want deep 1:1 interaction. 👇 POLL: Which one feels like the best fit for YOUR skills and personality? (Coaching / Courses / Digital Products) After you vote, drop a comment: What made you choose that option? I’ll reply and help you narrow it down.

I posted this poll yesterday and several of you voted. Thanks for that. This video is me, in full Brian mode... telling you how to get unstuck. If you care about getting unstuck and moving forward with an online business, you'll watch this video all the way through. If you let pride, ego and your past experiences run the show, you won't watch this. My hope is that one or two people will hear this and take action. The majority won't and that's why the one or two will win. You are less than 5 difficult conversations away from changing your life.

After having watched the latest Skool news video one thing stood out for me - join other communities you’re genuinely interested in and engage authentically. Whilst I can see the value in this, I can also see that this could become distracting and take away from the focus on our own communities. As I build my community I want to put all my focus on it as I think this is what members would want - so how do you balance this? Currently I'm only a member of 3 communities, including this one (and they're all from @Brian O'Neill )

One of the biggest mistakes people make when starting an online business is building something nobody asked for. That’s why validation exists. And it doesn't need to be complicated. You just need to find out if any human being actually cares about the problem you want to solve. So let’s do a quick check-in. Comment below with this: Idea: What problem are you trying to solve? Who did you ask? Friends, coworkers, LinkedIn, Reddit, Facebook, etc. Result: How many people said they'd actually want help with this? Example: Idea: Helping busy dads get in shape with 20-minute workouts Who I asked: 6 people from my gym Result: 3 said they'd be interested That’s validation. And no… you don’t need 100 people. Even 2-3 real responses is enough to move forward.
