Create a One-Week Challenge

When entering in your one-week challenge, you enter in:

•  • 
• Your One-week big hairy audacious goal (BHAG)
•  • 
• A financial consequence you will pay if the goal is not achieved or if you don't take constant progress toward it.



To give yourself a meaningful incentive to full-heartedly pursue your challenge, you can optionally and securely deposit your consequence into an escrow account. Here's how it works:



•  • 
• If you achieve your goal, you get a refund.
•  • 
• If you don't achieve your goal, we send your money (minus a 10% admin fee) to National Foundation for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE) at the end of the year. NFTE has been and continues to be one of our largest supporters and has an incredible mission that spreads free enterprise around the world to low-income young people.
•  • 
• You make the final decision, and you can always get your money back.




Invite others to support you.

Invite your closest friends and mentors to be your supporters. After you take the challenge, you can also find supporters by searching/browsing JourneyPage profile or by inviting your existing friends and contacts. Some fields you can search by include:



•  • 
• One-week challenge
•  • 
• Whether or not the individual already has an
•  • 
• accountability partner
•  • 
• Short- and long-term goals
•  • 
• Core values & beliefs
•  • 
• Life vision & passions
•  • 
• Portfolio (resume, cover letter, photos, art, etc.)
•  • 
• Education & experience



Take steps to your goal daily.

You can use JourneyPage to take three steps to your one-week challenge on a daily basis. Every morning, you enter in the three most important goals you what you want to accomplish in addition to optionally answering the following critical questions that will increase your odds of success:



•  • 
• What can you do now to ensure that you operate at peak performance throughout the day?
•  • 
• Why are today's outcomes really important to you?
•  • 
• How will you feel once you've completed the them?
•  • 
• When have you scheduled time to complete the outcomes?
•  • 
• What distractions will you eliminate before these scheduled times?
•  • 
• What reward(s) will you give yourself once you've completed all of the outcomes?
•  • 
• What are you most appreciative for today (optional, but powerful)?




Every evening you mark off what you accomplished. These results are shared with your accountability partner and network who hold you accountable and provide motivation via email responses.




This simple process helps you:



•  • 
• Clarify and focus on what's most important
•  • 
• Hold yourself accountable
•  • 
• Be kept on track by our accountability partner
