Hey everyone,
First and foremost, Happy Thanksgiving! I'm sure life has been stressful for many of you recently, I know it has been for me. However, there is so much to be grateful for. Personally, I am grateful for the opportunities that I have and for the cards I have been dealt. Many people have it worse than me, so I appreciate everything that I have been blessed with.
That being said, I want to share with you a short story about myself. About 3 years ago, I started my self-improvement journey which changed my life forever.
To provide some backstory, during the peak of covid, and throughout the majority of high school, I had been addicted to gaming. I would spend about 6 hrs average per day on the computer or in front of a television screen. During this time, I had very low self-esteem, confidence, and overall lack of motivation; I was in a perpetual state of uncertainty.
Then, one day, I was scrolling on YouTube and I found a video introducing me to the concept of self-improvement. At that moment, I decided that I would take the steps to transform my life. I started to go to the gym, going from a 5’10 150 lb lightweight, to now a 6’1 200 lb heavyweight.
Today, I am here, happy having made the best decision of my life. My goal now is to provide the same utility to others who were in a similar position as me, and to help them transform their life as I did mine.
That is why, I am starting a community called "GamerFit". The goal of this community is to encourage gamers, like myself, to pursue a healthier lifestyle and strive to become the best version of themselves. I recognize the passion and dedication that gamers bring to their virtual worlds, and I believe that this same drive can be harnessed to transform their lives in real world as well.
My mission is to help gamers transition from a gaming lifestyle to a gaming hobby, helping gamers foster a healthier and more fulfilling relationship with gaming.
If this is something that interests you and would like to help me expand, I am currently developing a Discord server that is centered around this community. Keep in mind, the server is still in early development and has many areas in which it can improve. However, I would love it if you would stop by and help me grow this server into something special. Also, any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
I've included a link to the server below, so feel free to stop by and say hello.
I hope to see you there :)
All the best,
swreborn
It's great that you're building a community to foster healthier habits, but i fail to see how this will be a profitable business for you. Could you humor me and explain?
The end goal is to develop the Discord community to a point to where I can use them as my starting customer base for releasing valuable products that will assist them on their self-improvement journey. I could offer premium content within the discord itself, I could offer gamified courses and educational resources, supplements, ebooks, and so on. Initially, the focus of the server is fitness, but I want to expand it to other areas in the future, such as mental health, fashion, and finance. I can continue to create products related to these topics, expanding and diversifying my offerings over time.
So like Dr K but fitness ? Thats a niche if I've ever seen one, good luck on your journey!
