These are very ambitious goals. I like your idea of building a community. It's such a wonderful way for people to feel supported and understood.

The challenge with building communities is that bigger is not always better. I prefer smaller communities with a sense of intimacy where people can get to know each other.

Once communities start to focus on growing and scaling, they often lose their "personality" and uniqueness.

Thank you for sharing your insights, Alina. I agree quality over quantity when building a community! The best communities share great content, have encouraging members, and make it easy to connect with each other.

Good stuff Mike! Here's goals for me in 2025:

1. PRACTICE things that give me a return on energy (I failed at ROE this year)

2. Focus on CREATING investments that give me ROE (my mentor calls these 5th quadrant investments)

3. Get paid per FLOW instead of paid per hour (one type of 5th quadrant investment)

4. SERVE NO MASTER by being the chooser instead of the chaser

5. Continue improving my health and staying active (Turning 46 made that more difficult)
