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,

Yoooo. I almost pulled the trigger on literally this exact business (even same name) a few months ago, but ultimately getting married took too much time, and now I’m going in a different direction.
No idea if it’s viable even because I didn’t go into the research and client interview phases of getting this, but I dig it.
After spending numerous hours doing competitor analysis, market research and consulting with University professors, the potential for this business model is seemingly endless. The business model has been done before, so the concept is proven to be effective, and I am working on ways to differentiate the server from others out there, such as adding tribes and multiplayer elements to add competition. The best part is that the community serves as your customer base, working with them to create valuable products that they might be looking for.
Sounds pretty cool!
im planing to build my own moba game and battle royale anyone has the same plan
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!
