Hey,
Mark here.
I've gotten a lot of questions about Momentum since I opened doors to this community earlier this year. And I want to make sure you get your questions answered.
If someone else asked these, maybe you'd want to know the answer too:
Q: Can I start as a monthly member and then change to annual later?
A: Yes. You can join now at the monthly rate and switch to the annual later if you'd like to check things out before committing. Bear in mind—your annual membership would begin when you switch your payment plan. We would not be able to roll any monthly installments into an annual plan. You can sign up now as a monthly member here.
Q: What kinds of action steps and exercises are members doing?
A: For our first month's focus on Values, exercises included a series of prompts for reflection and journaling, in addition to one or two "go out there and do" action steps. In this case, that was asking a person in their life for a specific type of feedback. For the Procrastination Momentum Month, members received a Procrastination ToolKit with different tools to experiment with so they can find what works best for them. Each day's exercise is designed to provide real change in your life, and every topic will include action steps that fit what's effective.
Some will include tools and tactics to test and try. Others will be more internally focused and reflective. It's all customized to fit our focus that month. Emotions Momentum Month is all about understanding and regulating your emotions using evidence-based tools from each of the Four Schools of Emotional Regulation.
Q: What's included, actually?
A: As a member of Momentum, you get access to the paid community via both an iOS or Android app and web browser. This includes a space for interacting with other members, responding to prompts inside the community, and sharing your own goals and insights.
In addition to our main Momentum space, each month we'll open a new action track which we call our "Momentum Months." Think of these like 30-day challenges that you can drop in and out of as it serves you and your goals. Each of these provides a specially engineered set of daily action prompts to pair with a recent episode of the Solved podcast. And you can go back and review these months of action tracks again and again, at your convenience.
There will also be community events, Q&A sessions with me, and special member opportunities, all designed to help you build even more momentum in your life.
Q: What are the accountability features?
A: Great question, as this is not a habit tracking app or a specific goal-achieving tool.
Momentum is an online community and personal growth product designed to help you build a habit of action. Inside, I provide daily prompts intentionally built around different areas of focus each month, but the pace at which you participate is entirely set by you. You might decide that doing a 30-day challenge every month is supportive to your process, or it might be a bit much.
As a philosophy, I trust you to set your own pace, use the features that support you, and leave what doesn't at the door. For example, some of our members are already forming their own small accountability groups inside.
Here are some of the current features of Momentum specifically for accountability:
- Momentum Months = Monthly Action Tracks for Daily Small Wins
- Activity Streaks to Encourage Your Daily Check-in
- Rewards & Badges for Completing Each Momentum Month
- Push Notifications (if you allow) to Remind You to Check In
- Daily Action Prompt Threads to Share & Encourage One Another
- Plus, more in the works…
Q: Why is this worth $249.99 for the year?
A: Money and value is a highly personal thing. So I will just answer this by sharing some of what our members are experiencing so far.
Here are some anonymous highlights from inside the community:
"Cleaned up my diet 1 meal at a time. Momentum helped me drop 15 lbs."
"Momentum is like the warm, understanding hug I didn't know I needed."
"Wow. This app is better than any therapy out there."
"Since I got clear on what my current values are, I've started intentionally making decisions to act in alignment with them. It's actually made me quite happy."
"Huge thanks to the individuals here who offered encouragement on my original post and checked-in to see how things had gone. I definitely felt the warmth and strength of the community Mark is building."
"I feel like I have pages of aha moments at this point. It's fascinating."
"I am seeing a noticeable shift in my awareness. It feels good!"
"THIS! It's so rewarding and helpful to read this assignment today. It describes and provides actionable steps for my top value of awareness. Thank you!"
"The last weeks and exercises might have shifted something in me. I could read feedback and just *let it sit* without my mind arguing against it. That's pretty cool."
"These exercises are informative! This community here provides me with motivation and a better understanding of myself. Thank you, Mark Manson."
"So far, this community has been really supportive and inspiring. I really love this!"
"I am grateful to be a member of this community. This is incredibly hard work that I have no doubt will pay off in droves."
"It is great to be following this program. I am happy I signed up and I am proud of prioritizing it every day and grateful for what it is bringing me."
"This community has melted me. As I read profiles and comments, I feel SO safe."
"I don't know what I signed up for here. Some kind of voodoo, magic, human engineering. And I'm down for it. I can't believe how much I've been exposed to and learned in the last week. And the fact that this is going to keep going with other important topics? Signing up for this is probably the best decision I've made all year."
Momentum is still in its infancy and I believe how awesome it becomes will be a direct result of what you bring to it.
Your dreams, your goals, your heart, your feedback. Yes, my team and I will provide a structure of exercises and actions to facilitate your growth—but we are also growing. We are also committed to getting 1% better every day.
And, like any service or product for your growth and self-improvement, it can't do the work for you. It can only provide you with the best system possible to achieve the growth you'd like to see. Because of that, I can't guarantee any specific result.
What I can guarantee is that Momentum is a space full of kind, self-aware people all looking to grow and get a little bit better every day. I can guarantee that you will be provided with a system for greater self-awareness, growth, and habit-building through smart daily actions and small wins. And I can also guarantee this community will be thrilled to welcome you. In all honesty, I don't know if you can put a true dollar value on that. Feels kind of priceless to me.
As a reminder, Momentum is only $24.99/month or $249.99/year (2 months free).
I made a decision to offer $50 off the annual pricing not just because I enjoy giving discounts, but because I understand the life-changing value of commitment.
The illusion that we have forever is one of the most insidious lies we tell ourselves.
We don't. Our time is finite—yours, mine, every single one of us.
So yes, I'm thrilled to save you $50 or anything at all.
But what's even more important to me is motivating you to take the uncomfortable step of committing. Not to me, and not to Momentum, but to what really matters most to you.
Inside Momentum, that's exactly what you'll be focused on—your values, your priorities, and what's actually worth giving a f*ck about.
Join us here.
See you inside,
Mark
