The Wrong Room

April 01, 2025

Hey it’s James,

Yesterday I shared a hard truth about why you might be stuck…

…it's not your tactics, it's your environment!

But how do you know if you're in the wrong room?

Here are the symptoms I've seen in thousands of entrepreneurs.

1. Your goals sound crazy to the people around you

When you share your vision, do people nod politely while their eyes say "that's impossible"? In the wrong room, your ambitions feel delusional.

In the right room, they might actually be too small.

2. You're constantly the teacher, never the student

If you're always the one explaining concepts to others and rarely learning, you've outgrown your environment.

Growth happens when you're slightly uncomfortable, not when you're the expert.

3. Your "big wins" don't excite anyone

Landed a $10K client? In the wrong room, that's cause for celebration. In the right room, the question is:

"Great start. How do we turn that into a $100K client?"

4. You're solving the same problems over and over

The wrong room keeps you trapped in cycles of familiar challenges. The right room has people who've already solved those problems and can help you leapfrog to more interesting ones.

5. Your network hasn't changed in years

Your future opportunities are directly linked to new connections. If you're talking to the same people year after year, your trajectory is already set.

Every entrepreneur I've ever met who made a quantum leap forward did so by changing who they were surrounded by.

Not incrementally. Dramatically.

The School of Mentors exists for one reason…

..to put you in the room where 7, 8, and 9-figure thinking is normal.

Where your environment pulls you forward instead of holding you back!

You can experience this environment for 7 days, risk-free.

What does the right room feel like?

It feels like coming home to the future version of yourself.

To Your Success,

James

P.S. The most expensive decision you'll ever make isn't joining the wrong community. It's staying in no community at all.
