A healthier approach to entrepreneurship
No matter how many videos, courses, and coaching we consume, we can’t seem to stick to a plan long enough to see results. The one thing every expert says we’re missing is…
Consistency.
We’re constantly stressed, petering on burning out, and plagued by self-doubt. With thoughts like “It looks so easy why am I the only one struggling this hard?“
The truth is most first-time business owners share these experiences.
It's time to stop struggling alone
We combine accountability groups, body doubling, productivity techniques, positive psychology, and more to make the best online environment for you to build your business idea.
Idea Strider helps you become productive, motivated, consistent, and burnout free until you’re strong enough to run on your own.

The Science
- Connectedness with others and social accountability is an essential condition for intrinsic motivation in Self-Determination Theory. (Ryan & Deci, 2000)
- Ongoing accountability support increases the probability of goal accomplishment to 95 percent. (Harkin et al., 2016)
- Just the knowledge of the possibility of impending accountability check-ins increases positive behaviors by 50%. (Oussedik et al., 2017)
- Virtual, weekly accountability check-ins conducted by skilled facilitators more than double adherence to plans to achieve goals. (Oussedik et al., 2017) (Kast & Pomeranz, 2014)
- Accountability is so powerful because it is an evolutionary trait that has evolved over millions of years hand in hand with self-awareness and our ability to self-regulate, which gives human beings the unique ability to dominate the planet. (Scheier & Carver, 1977) (Silvia, 2002)
- Difficult goals, when they’re stated with clear specificity, consistently lead to higher performance. (Locke & Latham, 1990)
- Specificity optimized goals always outperform, are more unconsciously motivating and build mastery faster than purely focusing on the long term. (Bandura & Schunk, 1981)
- Balancing big picture vs ultra-detailed goals is a skill that actually improves self control, correlating with higher earning potential, better health and even better relationships. (Fujita, 2008)
- Measurement invokes self-awareness, which inspires us to perform at our best. (Scheier & Carver, 1977) (Wicklund & Duval, 1971)
- For goals to be effective, people need to measure progress in relation to their goals. (Locke & Bryan, 1969) (Matsui et al., 1983)
- Measuring—and staying conscious of—your progress against an intended goal activates the insula region of your brain when you deviate, which correlates with motivation to get back on track. (Knutson et al., 2007)
- Adding a specific intention to take action at a precise time more than doubles the likelihood of a goal being accomplished. (Milne et al., 2002)
- The skillful ability to plan one’s work across time correlates with better performance in every measure, regardless of field. (Snider et al., 2021) (Fishbach et al., 2003)
- Deadlines actually help people be more flexible, resist distraction and achieve more (than just executing in a wide open schedule). (Gollwitzer & Sheeran, 2006)
- 64% of people reported higher engagement levels, lower fatigue levels, and a higher success rate when they were primed to act collaboratively (Carr & Walton, 2014)
- In a 10-year McKinsey study, top executives reported being five times more productive in flow. (McKinsey)
- Being in a state of flow can boost creativity for multiple days after ending the flow state. (Teresa Amiable et. al, 2005)
