People often engage with online content and share inspirational videos, but how often do they dive deep into face-to-face or one-on-one conversations with those who share the same goals but bring different perspectives?
Whether it's growth, math, presentation skills, marketing, sales, yoga, or board games, communities offer a unique space for personal and professional development. This article isn't just about joining GrowthX; it's about the value of joining any community.
A community is a group of people who come together to fulfill a certain purpose. Advice against joining a community is rare, as most emphasize the intrinsic motivators: supporting others, furthering good causes, and feeling satisfied by helping others. However, joining a community for selfish reasons can also be beneficial. Here’s why.
Jeff Bezos once said, “The number one sign that you are intelligent is a willingness to change your mind -- a lot.” Changing one’s mind requires access to diverse perspectives. While colleagues offer companionship and support within an office, they may not share the same goals, OKRs, or interests. Communities allow individuals to meet others who share their passions, providing space to express them together. This increases conviction in personal goals and hobbies.
Many have taken online courses only to drop off in the middle, leaving unused learning materials collecting dust. In a community, there’s no distracting environment or social media. Individuals turn up because others are turning up to achieve common goals. This is inherently motivating. Additionally, building relationships with community members creates social pressure, making regular participation more likely.
Joining a community helps individuals understand where they stand among their peers, whether in yoga, football, biking, or growth. When facing challenges, confidence increases if others share similar perspectives or experiences. If perspectives differ, it either provides a valuable alternative view or something to learn. Listening to community discussions often provides insights and solutions to challenges.
Success often comes down to talent and its discovery. Joining a community helps individuals discover their talents and serves as a platform for others to recognize them. This opens conversations and connections that might not have been built alone.
Founders working towards building sustainable, purposeful products are encouraged to join GrowthX. GrowthX is built for founders, product managers, growth operators, marketing operators, and leaders in internet-first or tech-enabled products because the founders of GrowthX faced the same challenges.
Communities are not just about warm, fuzzy feelings. They are about personal growth, motivation, benchmarking, and increasing chances of success. Whether it’s GrowthX or any other community, taking the plunge and joining a community that aligns with personal goals is highly beneficial.
