Since my break-up with my previous co-founder, I haven't moved as fast as I've wanted to. You also might have felt as a solo founder you'd like to have more accountability. This should help you with that. This notion is being used to track progress of the tasks.

105 Day Accountability Challenge

15 weeks. 105 days. We start on September 4th. The contestants must complete their tasks before December 18th, 11:59 PM or they must complete their respective punishments.

Jeson’s Task

Publish at least 30 podcast episodes that abide by the following criteria,
- 20 min length each,
- You cannot have the same person on the interview twice, and
- The interviewer needs to be either a founder, an operator or an investor.
  - Shardul will vet if this qualifies.
Launch the Renown Fellowship, a talent accelerator to solve the world’s most pressing problems.
- Bring on 5 mentors who are either professors or founders and who can commit 2 hours a week to the fellowship [DETAILS SUBJECT TO CHANGE]
- Cohort Start Date of some time in January
- Programming, schedule, perks for attendees and fellows

Shardul’s Task

Release a milestone of the grid congestion software on Twitter/Product Hunt every 2 weeks.
- Each milestone you publish online needs to have a working demo
  - Jeson will vet if the milestone and demo qualifies.
- Each milestone needs to solve a problem that someone will find useful and valuable.
- If you find another product you want to build longer term, and you commit the rest of the time of the challenge to this product, you need to publish that every 2 weeks online.

Incentives and Punishments

Jeson’s Positive Incentive

For any revenue generated by Shardul’s product on ProductHunt, Jeson gets 10% cut up to $500 (every 2 weeks).

Shardul’s Positive Incentive

For every working product on Product Hunt, I can ask Jeson to promote the product on his podcast.

Jeson and Shardul’s Punishment

If the participant doesn’t complete their task by the aforementioned end date, he must post at least a 1 minute video on LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram with the below criteria

1 mile walk minimum from any location in San Francisco.

Progress Tracking Using Daily Stand Up

10 AM standup every day. Jeson gets to validate Shardul’s idea for the product on product hunt and Shardul gets to vet Jeson’s leads for his podcast to see if they are good enough to qualify. Every stand up is tracked in the website in the Daily Stand Update
