- You're about to learn the most important thing
to help you have intense focus
so that you can achieve so much more each and every day.
- And we're gonna tell you how to overcome procrastination
and guarantee that you get stuff done.
- This isn't gonna be some airy fairy video where we tell
you to get up early, do some exercise,
have your bulletproof coffee,
do a bit of journaling, have an avocado.
No, no, no, no.
This has been an experiment that we've done
with our Atomic members and we've had 100% success with it.
- Let's do this! - Woo!
Now, as many of you know,
we're obsessed by getting bigger and better results
for all of our Atomic members.
- And we know the one thing that leads to results
without fail is taking action.
More action means more success.
- But yet, why is it that so many of us procrastinate
and just don't achieve all that much?
Whereas some of us absolutely fly
and do really, really well?
And so we did an experiment.
An experiment that led us to discovering an incredible way
to overcome procrastination
and help people achieve literally
six to 12 months worth of progress in just three weeks.
Yeah, three weeks.
And since then, we've been able
to replicate this success time and time again,
with 100% success rate.
- So if you're sitting there
and you know that you can achieve more,
you feel like you've got some potential
that you're not quite matching,
or you wanna take some rapid action, then keep on watching.
- Okay, the experiment.
We were on the phone to one of our awesome Atomic members,
Laura Robinson, from Worditude.
And we were discussing what her goals were for the year
and where she wanted her business to be in six to 12 months.
Then we asked Laura,
what were the tasks to help her get there?
She listed off a tonne of stuff that she wanted to do,
achieve, projects, tasks,
and also things that were holding her back.
And she admitted that she already knew what she had to do,
but she was just procrastinating on some of it.
She was putting off launching a course.
She was putting off building a sales funnel.
She was putting off hiring the necessary people
that she needed to grow her business.
But we knew she could do it.
We knew she could do all those things
and we believed in her.
- So we asked her, "If the world was going to end
in a month's time, if you didn't do those tasks,
would you be able to complete all of those tasks
in a month?"
And she said, "Yes."
So we decided to raise the stakes to see if she would.
And so we made a wage with Laura right there and then.
We said to her, "Send us 500 pounds.
And we'll give you that 500 pounds back,
if you complete all those tasks,
you've just said that you want to do.
And if you don't complete all of those tasks,
we're just gonna keep the money.
We're gonna spend it.
Pete already had the summer breakaway planned.
Didn't you Pete?
- I was all ready to go. (upbeat, jolly music)
- But what happened?
- She said yes to the challenge.
Game on. Woo.
- Here's a screenshot of the amount she sent us.
- And what happened next honestly shocked us.
She absolutely smashed it. No summer holiday for me.
(upbeat, lively music)
She did everything within three weeks.
She did her whole 12-months goals
and smashed them in three weeks.
12 months, three weeks. Amazing.
- She had raised the stakes on herself
to overcome what was holding her back.
Her own "Confidence Plateaus."
And it gave her complete and utter focus.
And she took rapid action to complete those tasks
and achieve her goals.
And not only did she get her money back,
not only did she smash her goals,
but that momentum has kept building
after she'd seen what she can achieve
when she puts her mind to it.
Amazing, but we didn't stop there. Oh, no.
- After that,
we launched our own "Raise The Stakes Sprint" inside Atomic,
our membership, so that our members could take part
and do it together.
- Here's how it works.
Everyone decides themselves what tasks that they wanna do
over the next three weeks that's gonna push them
to achieve their goals faster.
They all then make a wager with us
on completing their own tasks.
And for three weeks we all sprint together.
- And you know what happens? They all smash it.
That means that a 100% of those that took part did 100%
of those Sprint tasks in the allocated three weeks.
Smashed their task, smashed their goals. Boom!
- Sprinters have told us how much this has pushed them
to the point where they've said things like,
"I've done six months of work in three weeks."
- "I would never have been brave enough
to do the things I've done this week without this Sprint."
- "And I've already won business.
You have no idea how much this Sprint has helped me."
- It's amazing. It's incredible.
And it's pushing people beyond the limits
of what they thought they were capable of
so they can achieve more.
- And this is the key.
If you want to stop procrastinating,
then you need to raise the stakes on yourself.
People procrastinate
because the path of action seems scarier
than the path of inaction.
And so to push yourself through that procrastination,
you need to raise the stakes.
You need to somehow make the path of no action,
the procrastination path,
scarier than the path of actually doing what you need to do.
- So this is what we want for you too.
We want you to absolutely smash it.
If you want extra help with this,
if you want some accountability to push you,
to make sure you do the things that you want to do.
If you want some support,
if you want a team to help push you onwards,
then we are here to facilitate that change
with our "Raise The Stakes Sprints" here in Atomic.
And the next one is starting soon.
So click the link below and make sure you register
for the next Sprint.
So no more procrastination, no more indecisiveness,
no more making excuses, no more faffing around.
Let's start making big impact, right now.
- Let's raise the stakes together
and get some big epic wins for you.
- Yes. All right, guys.
Thanks so much for watching.
We've been Andrew and Pete.
Make sure you subscribe and we'll see you on the other side.
Bye for now.
