Our Future Is In Your Hands 👊

Dear Co-x3 Community,
This week, we talk about us - how you and me become we.
We are now just shy of 5 months old (counting from our first newsletter published on January 26). We've hit 330 members in the Co-x3 Community, and 1000 email subscribers today. Wow. When I first embarked on this journey, I had a humble goal to build a home for entrepreneurs, students, and second winders to live intentionally and maximize their productivity through knowledge sharing, actionable systems to follow, and meaningful accountability. And now, with 65 active monthly patrons, I'm so touched that we've attracted global citizens that believe in our vision of bringing together like-minded thinkers to affect positive change in the world.
Our Wins 🚀
It's been a fantastic week for our community - here are some highlights:
For our community to continuously deliver long term value, I believe that we need to concentrate on 3 fundamental pillars - a strong group of givers, consistent community events, and robust community resources. Find out how we've advanced Co-x3 to the next level →
In our weekly council meeting, we helped our community members fight their local war by asking deep and thoughtful questions and helping each other with specific problems we identified in our week. How do you deal with overwhelming situations and seek help? It was a fantastic session - watch it here if you missed it! →
We finished our first Co-x3 TTRPG Session as part of our Saturday game nights initiative, and we'll be animating our adventure for interested members of the community to enjoy! Vote here to choose the next game to play! →

This week's honest sharing 💭
Every week, I am deeply honest about important topics.
It's never been a better time to express yourself online, whether through a personal blog, a wiki for your company, or a landing page showcasing your work. Last week, I shared my best 3 hacks for creators and businesses to save money and upgrade their setups; and on Friday, I went on Notion's office hours to share 8 amazing examples of websites you can build with Notion for free. As it was quite a lengthy session (>1 hour), I've broken it down to just ~20 mins to save you time and help you learn effectively.
What I've been resonating with 📚
Constant learning is an important part of your growth journey, and I try to read as much as I can to learn as fast as I can. Every week, I'll share key insights from the best pieces of content I digest.
Quote: "Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much." - Hellen Keller
When we find ourselves in a bind, it often can seem that we are alone with unique problems that nobody can understand or resolve.
However, our community has demonstrated to me time and time again, that our problems are not unique - and that's a wonderful thing to know.
There is always someone out there who has experienced the pains I've experienced, and they've grown stronger for it - thus they can teach me how to be better.
Things to look forward to 👀
We have a big gamification video drop within 24 hours, where we will conduct a much anticipated end-to-end walkthrough of #theGamificationProject, and shoutout May's patrons.
♻ Next Week's Major Releases:
New Template: Content Creation Flow A highly intentional content creation and distribution flow.
New Template: Founder, Manager, and Project Manager Planning A template to help put you into each mindset and conduct structured planning.
This week, I asked the community if you wanted me to hold daily standups in our leaderboard space, and you guys answered with a resounding YES. So, starting Monday, I will be posting a daily standup thread for everyone to state what they accomplished yesterday, what they're working on today, and plan to accomplish by the end of the day.
We'll be hosting a masterclass on conducting meaningful reflections early June, as requested by Drew, Isak, Brian, and many other intentional thinkers that want to learn the most effective ways to put on the different hats in our lives and hold meaningful reflections.
Companion reward for joining next week's council meeting - you'll earn an exclusive hero to join your party! This week was Howl, giving you a 15% bonus to push you to complete wins and build stronger habits, and we'll reveal our upcoming masked hero on Friday!
