Over the past few weeks, I’ve taken a little summer break.

I spent less time on LinkedIn and paused writing my newsletter.

And I’m glad I did.

Because stepping away from work for a while freed up mental space and gave me more time to think.

…about where I’m at…

…and where I want to go.

This led to an uncomfortable realization.

I’ve been working on a few projects over the summer and making some moves here and there. But I was lacking a clear direction or finish line.

Maybe you can relate.

When you're busy doing “things,” it might feel like movement, but not necessarily like progress.

Chances are, you’ve also spent your summer enjoying life for a while. I certainly did, but I’m now ready to build momentum again.

And I figured:

Why not turn the rest of the year into a fun challenge?

A challenge I can share online to hold myself accountable and inspire others to join me along the way.

So next Monday, September 14, I’m starting something called:

100 Days of Progress

This is a 100-day challenge to make meaningful progress in a few important areas, such as business, health, or personal stuff.

It ends on December 22, just before Christmas.

I’ve already picked my goals, built a cool Notion dashboard, and created a simple structure to track everything. (I’ll share my goals and show you how I structured the whole thing in another email this week.)

I also thought:

Hm, maybe other people could benefit from this, too.

…which is why I’d love to invite you to create your own 100 Days of Progress alongside me.

Here’s how I imagine it working:

1. Reply with “I’m in” if you want to join.
2. I’ll send you the Notion setup I’m using for my own challenge (including the goal-setting and weekly review structure).
3. You choose your goals for the next 100 days (and share them with me).
4. Once a week, review your progress and decide what to focus on next.
5. Send me quick updates, and I’ll check in with you via DMs to keep you accountable.

I’ll also share my progress online and we’ll see how far we can get in 100 days.

And just to be clear:

Joining this challenge is completely free. There’s no pitch, no calls, and no hidden upsell.

I just think it could be fun to invite a few motivated people and make progress together.

If you’re interested, reply with “I’m in” and let’s chat.

P.S.

September 14 is just one week away.

If there’s something you still want to make progress on this year, now's the right time.

And if you want that extra push?

Reply with “I’m in” and let’s rock ’n’ roll. 🤘🏼
