7-Day Momentum Challenge

Inspired by why projects flail—misdirected effort, underestimation, and lack of momentum—this challenge helps you fix a stalled goal.

Pick one flailing project (e.g., side hustle, hobby, or coaching business).

Journal daily: "Is my effort right? Underestimated? Sustained?"

Quick Prep (Before Day 1):

• Select your project.
• Rate current momentum (1-10).
• Grab a notebook or app for tracking.
• Mindset: Focus 90% on impact (e.g., marketing) vs. 10% on creation. No quick-fix illusions!

Daily Steps:
 

Day 1: Effort Audit

Track today's project time. Categorize: Creation, Marketing, Distractions.

List 3 misdirected efforts to cut.

Journal: "Where's my energy wasted?"

Day 2: Direction Fix

Research 2-3 success stories in your area.

Adjust your goal to align (e.g., "Get 3 clients via outreach").

Journal: "Am I on the right path?"

Day 3: Estimation Check

Break tasks down; double time estimates.

Create a simple timeline.

Journal: "What have I underestimated?"

Day 4: Momentum Build

Set a daily 20-30 min habit.

Do it today—focus on sustainability.

Journal: "What stops my consistency?"

Day 5: 90/10 Shift

Spend 90% of time on high-impact (e.g., promote your work).

Test one outreach action.

Journal: "How does this feel?"

Day 6: Fear & Simulation

Note full-time fears; simulate with a 1-hour focused block.

Journal: "What prep do I need?"

Day 7: Review & Plan

Re-rate momentum.

Summarize wins. Make a 7-day continuation plan.
