Have you joined the server already? There is a link to join the server further up in the assignment. That being said, perhaps the lesson about joining the server could be moved up in the curriculum.

This issue is stale because it has had no activity for the last 30 days.

Just encountered the same issue. The first assignment in the Motivation and Mindset lesson tells you to check out the success stories on the Discord server. But if you click on the link without having joined the server beforehand, all you get is a blank page telling you that either there's nothing here or you don't have access. And only a few lessons later do you actually get a link to join the server.

Maybe we can edit the text to tell people to make sure to join the server before clicking on the link that takes you into the success stories shown within the TOP server.

You'd also need to add the actual link for joining. As I and the other poster have mentioned, the actual link for joining appears only 2 or 3 lessons later.

i don't mind working on it if no one else would want to.

I'd love to work on this to update it so it makes more sense to new students.

Looking at how the last volunteer got no response you might be best off just doing it. If everyone has to ask permission to contribute but no one has time or can be bothered to give permission, then nothing will get done.
